Why I Picked These ThirdLove Bras

A Victoria’s Secret Girl Since High School

I’ll be real with you. I’ve been a Victoria’s Secret girl for as long as I can remember. I even worked there as a seasonal Christmas hire back in high school. So I’ve stayed pretty loyal to them.

That’s why this box felt like a fun test. Could a new brand earn a spot in my drawer?

Picking From the Lookbook

ThirdLove let me choose from their lookbook. I went with colors that felt perfect for fall. I wanted bras that would work under all the warm browns and deep tones I wear this time of year.

Leopard prints are super in right now, so that one was an easy pick. I also love the ribbing on one of these bras. It’s a little detail that makes it feel less basic.

Getting the Size Right

Sizing was the part I worried about most. Ordering bras online is always a gamble.

I used their size chart and ordered my size. It was correct on the first try. So far, so good.

The ThirdLove 24/7 Classic Uplift Plunge Bra in Black

The One I’ve Worn So Far

This is the only one I’ve worn so far. It’s a push-up style with a deep V. ThirdLove calls it the Uplift Plunge.

The cool part is in the back of each cup. There are little inserts you can pull out. If you don’t want so much volume, you just take them out.

Fabric Pads, Not Gel

The inserts are soft padded fabric. They aren’t the gel kind people slip into their bras. If you wanted to swap in gel pads, you probably could.

It feels silky and looks really nice on. That’s my first impression after one wear.

The ThirdLove Zero Edge Contour Bra in Leopard

Why the Leopard Caught My Eye

Leopard is everywhere this fall, and I wanted in. This one has a fun print but still reads like an everyday bra.

What Makes Zero Edge Different

ThirdLove builds the Zero Edge line with bonded, laser cut edges instead of stitched seams. The goal is no lines showing through fitted or thin tops. I haven’t worn it yet, so I’ll tell you if that holds up.

The ThirdLove 24/7 Classic T-Shirt Bra in Espresso

The Everyday Pick

This is ThirdLove’s signature bra. It was the first bra ever made in half cup sizes. It has thin memory foam cups and straps with a pleat made to stay put.

Why Espresso

I picked espresso because it goes with fall. Deep browns are what I reach for this time of year. I haven’t worn this one yet either.

What I’m Watching For

Will They Feel Special Enough?

My honest concern is that these look a little standard to me. They’re cute and silky. But after years with Victoria’s Secret, I want to see if ThirdLove feels different enough to switch.

Life on the Road

We live out of suitcases, so every bra I pack has to earn its spot. I’ll be watching how these hold up through real wear and washing on the road.

What’s Next

These are really pretty, and I’m excited to wear the other two. I’ll come back and update this post with my full review once I’ve put all three through real life.
