Hello readers, I know it has been awhile since I wrote a post. I am going to do two different reviews, one will be the shower hug for mastalgia in my case, typically for nursing/pregnant mothers. *I ordered the wrong size earlier, so that will be in a week or less*, and the Natori Yogi which will be ordered from A Sophisticated Pair.
I wanted to personally thank A Sophisticated Pair and Erica for their help answering my questions today, as well as getting me in the right bras.She takes customer service very seriously, and has a wonderful personality. There is really no reason to order from anywhere else, and I know she is compassionate, and caring. I am set for life with her as my bra fitter, and very thankful she helps me. I have never experienced the customer service such as hers, she takes time to answer all my questions(and I ask a lot, I was clueless thanks to some of the bad fitting advice).I cant say enough how helpful she is, I wish the shop had opened when I was younger. Growing up, I did not get any help with bras, and she has been like the big sister I never had. I am very grateful for her, and her wisdom/advice. I would be a total wreck without her, stuck in ill fitting bras *and back/neck pains and headaches to boot*If you have a daughter, she is the fitter I would highly recommend for both of you. She remembers every customer from what I can tell, and connects with them, which is a key in a relationship. She would get an A Plus on customer service if I gave her a report card.
I wanted to thank the Shower Hug Creators, and people who interacted with me via email. They were extremely friendly, and helpful. Their customer service is amazing, and I cant wait to do a review of the product.
I wanted to thank Ali Cudby and Elizabeth Dale for helping me with all my questions as well. They take time to respond to questions on Facebook and I am very appreciative. These four women have been very helpful and deserve a big thank you. All three of you have helped me and impacted my life positively, in some way, and I owe you a thank you.
Have a wonderful evening.

Sports Bra Reviews
I wanted to offer a summary about the Sports Bras I have purchased so far. I wanted to also explain what I think is the Best Sports Bra available out of the four brands I have, and which ones I didn't feel did as well. Please note all the bras are great, I am not criticizing them negatively, just explaining if I see anything that I would like to improve upon.
Cost wise-The Natori was the cheapest at fourty eight dollars, and the Panache was the most expensive at sixty eight dollars.
Shape Wise-All of the bras except the Freya had a nice regular shape. The Wacoal and the Natori stayed the truest to the breast shape, and the Panache does the same as well. The Freya bra had a cone shape to it in the cup, and drew more attention to my chest then I would have liked. I generally avoid wearing the Freya unless I will be wearing a work shirt or baggier clothes all day, then it isn't so bad.
Durability Wise-All the bras did well, I do not see any flaws in any of the bras with the material handling work.
Comfort Wise-The Natori Sports Bra is byfar the most comfortable, I feel like I could sleep in it. All the others are comfortable as well but the Natori takes the cake in comfort.
Activity Level-All the sports bras did well, the Panache one especially feels very supportive but they all are.
I am off to work, hope you have a wonderful weekend dear readers!

Panache Sports Bra Review
Hello, hope everyone is going to have a fantastic, fun weekend up ahead of them. This time, I wanted to review the Panache Sports Bra. I will also look into posting a "Sports Bra Competition" between the Four Bras with my reviews, which will be basically I will look into price, durability, shape, and other things I can hopefully think of when I am typing the next review :P.
Alright, well the Panache bra is definitely supportive, and does a wonderful job at work with whatever activity you are doing. I cannot really think of any complaints with this one, however I will definitely say compared to the soft material of the Natori, this isn't a super comfy bra *it still feels good at work, but in terms of comfort, the Natori takes the cake*. In terms of price, its around 70 dollars, which is fair but I feel it is a bit pricy. The shape that the cups take when wearing a t-shirt is fine, it does not have the cone shape compared to the Freya. I like how sturdy the Panache bra is, and how it would definitely be good for any activity workout/job you may be doing.
The Pros-Decent amount of colors to purchase, not just black and white. Very sturdy, nice shape under a t-shirt.
The Cons-A bit pricy *but fair, I have heard that these can last up to two years with good care*. The material is pretty comfortable but it is not as comfy as the Natori *although I think this will handle more activity better than the Natori*
Rating-Five out of Five, this isn't what I would call a "relaxing bra" like the Natori Sports one, but it does its job well. This is a good any level of activity bra.
