Cleo Corset Crop Bralette - Sapphire

I can't believe i got this with just my points. So worth it.

This is the best crop top bralette that I’ve found. I love that it doesn’t have the elastic band inside under the bust because those alwaysss dig into me, uncomfortably so. It’s so soft and compressive. Would really love to see more colors and restocks

Loved this top in smoked lilac so much that I snagged one in black too! Very comfortable for yoga or a lift day but also nice just to wear around the house. I like the length of this one, it’s cropped but a little bit longer than other cropped tops.

I got this by accident, b/c the replacement I wanted to order was sold out. Bummed out, I opted for this non-mesh option and the color I wanted was also sold out. I didn’t expect to love the yellow, but here I am in love. I guess Popflex is the new Pokémon. Selling out forces me to collect more different pieces I wouldn’t normally go for.

Nothing bouncing around in this!

Hi there, 40 something, 6'2 and 3/4" and 255 lbs, female, checking in. I bought the Cleo Corset Crop Bralette - Black in size XL and the Crisscross Hourglass® Flared Leggings with Pockets - Black in size 1XL. Upon arrival, my body dysmorphia told me "that is NOT going to fit you." and I left my purchase sit on a chair for a day. During that day I revisited Popflex's size chart and confirmed, again, that yes, that is my size according to my inches. Yes, my inches are on the top end of that size but still I am that size.

I stuffed my body dysmorphia down and "stuffed" (I don't feel stuffed, not even a little bit) myself into the fit. No screams of stretched fabric happened. No popped stitches. The outfit seems to fit just fine. No camel toe could be found. But I needed reassurance and eyes on my back side. So, off to find my partner. I "forced" my husband to check out my butt during a squat and asked if he could see skin. He said "nope, looking good."

I wore the outfit around the house, that evening, for a few hours, as loungewear to see how it felt being worn that way. Very comfortable. No tugging, tiny bit of folding w the bra when sitting but the tummy rolls be strong when I sit. So, still not complaining. Okay, okay, Popflex, I see you.

I am fluffy but working on my fit, especially throughout this last year. One of my biggest complaints, problems, emotional meltdowns during my workouts is my leggings slipping down, constantly. I have bought from the cheaper box stores. And I have bought from more expensive brands that focus on athletic wear. It's all the same, every other jump or twist I am having to pull the entire waist up from my hips. I even started to wear a waist trainer as a belt to keep my work out pants up.

This morning I wore my Popflex outfit during my 40 min workout and put it to the tug and pull test. During the course of my workout, I found myself re-adjusting the bottom of the bra a couple times, maybe 5 times max but there was no tugging it down. As far as the leggings, same thing, re-adjusting the top a little but didn't find myself needing to YANK them back up. I also found I was able to raise the intensity of my workout bc I wasn't worrying about pulling my clothes back where they belong.

I want to add that the 37" cover my ankles nicely. However, I would not be mad at a 39" inseam launch, in the future. I would even happily pay a bit extra for the extra inches. I say that bc I am notorious for shrinking everything after a few washes.

I am still questioning if I should go a size up? I am wondering if the little bit of tugging would be eliminated completely if there was just a bit more fabric? But will going a size bigger be too big and in return eliminate the "snatched" look and feeling I am currently having in this size?

Thanks for reading.
Enjoy your day
