Sports Bras that keep the girls in check...

Not going to lie..this is one ugly ass bra. I don't think I've ever let Mr. Allan see me in this puppy. I call it my body armor bra mostly because, well, it fits like a piece of medieval body armor. Based on that you're probably itching to buy this right away on my glowing style review! So why do I wear it, well, I've got a big chest. It's probably a little smaller than when I was in high school, but I have a two sports bra kind of chest..you know, where one sports bra doesn't do the trick and you double up and wear one over the other to get the support you need. Small chested women are probably reading this with their jaws on their computer desks..the big chested gals know EXACTLY what I'm talking about.

So, this bra is my answer to the two sports bra dilemma...it's been a saving grace to me. I have some friends who aren't fans..and I have some friends who I've told about this bra who love me for it. Also not going to lie..this is a tight fitting bra. When I bought my first one, it was like putting on my first pair of spanx and being alarmed at the suck me in feeling of it all. But, it's that tightness that keeps the girls in place and eliminates bounce..so I guess you have to pick your battle and endure if you want the solution to one problem.

So..without further ado...the Enell


I buy mine at http://www.barenecessities.com/. Why..because they always seem to have some sort of coupon code going on over there. I usually google and find something at http://www.retailmenot.com/ to knock a couple bucks off...and it's free shipping on all orders over $50. This website is great for the more expensive..aka better...bras...I wear Fantasie bras and scoop them up at some pretty cheap prices...not to mention my precious Hanky Pankys as well.

Best underwear eva...Bare Necessities had a sale on Hanky Panky 5 packs!

I wear this bra for any high impact activity..it's my running bra, my kickboxing bra, and my step aerobics bra. If I'm yoga-ing ..I opt for a less restrictive bra. My friend, T, recommended this bra from Moving Comfort. It's great for lower impact stuff, but if I'm running, I do prefer the support of the Enell.

So, while I might not be able to wear any cute little jazzercise tops with spaghetti straps and racerbacks, I'll hunker down in my Old Navy clearance rack graphic tees and wear my Enell bra so I don't run the risk of knocking myself out in turbo kick class!
