Okay, so I finally got my hands on this DotVol front-closure bra after seeing SO many mixed reviews. Here's my totally unfiltered take after wearing it for a week:

• The Good: That X-back design? LEGIT. My posture feels noticeably better when I remember to sit up straight (which this bra definitely reminds me to do). The fabric is crazy soft - like 'forgot I'm wearing a bra' soft. Front closure is a gamechanger for my post-yoga changing struggles.

• The Sizing Drama: Y'all weren't kidding about sizing up! I usually wear medium but had to exchange for large. Pro tip: check their size chart twice and maybe even go up two sizes if between measurements.

• Sweat Alert: Don't even think about wearing this for spin class. While the mesh sides help, it's definitely not moisture-wicking enough for serious workouts. Found myself adjusting way too much during Zumba.

• The Uniboob Struggle: As a 34DD gal, I really missed having separation. The full coverage does give that 'minimizer' effect which I actually liked under t-shirts, but side boob spillage was real if I didn't adjust constantly.

Final verdict? 7/10 - Amazing for lazy days and posture help, but not my go-to for active wear or when I want defined shape under clothes.
