#VSSportBra #VSSportTester VoxBox from Influenster

DISCLAIMER: This is a sponsored blog post. Influenster provided me with complimentary Victoria's Secret products to test and review as part of a contest.

I was super excited that I was chosen for this VoxBox in particular, because I'm already a huge Victoria's Secret fan (ForeverAngel cardholder, baby!). I've been in the market for a new sport bra for a while, as I was not totally satisfied with my old one. Influenster provided me with an Incredible Sport Bra. Cue the #SportBraBreakup with my old bra!

I'll start off by saying I am a very awkward size. Both 32D and 32DD can fit me comfortably depending on the cut of the bra. My old sport bras only ran small, medium or large. I need a bra that can hold the girls in place while not pinching, chafing or creating that gross underboob sweat.

I tested out the Incredible Sport Bra during my workout yesterday. I'm not gonna lie, I sweat a lot. Especially after an hour on the elliptical, 45 minutes on the treadmill and 20 minutes on the bike. This bra did not chafe at all. It kept me nice and cool without irritating my skin. The wires are cushioned and have a barely there feel- no pinching or digging! The bra didn't ride up, slide or roll like my old one sometimes did. The fit was great- both the band and cup size are accurate. My only gripe is that it's a little  hard to get on- it's a racerback with only the bottom band opening. I'm so used to hooking my bra closed in the front that it was kind of difficult for me to get it over my head, and then close the hook and eye strap. Other than that, I have absolutely no complaints about the bra- even the color is fun! It's definitely an upgrade from my old sport bra, which provided little to no support and trapped sweat against my skin, which has cause rashes in the past.

Since the bra fit great, I didn't have to head to Victoria's Secret to get a fitting, but I did stop buy to use my 25% off coupon that also came in the box. I snagged myself an Angel Sport Bra. I haven't tried that one out yet, but it's super soft and I think it's gonna be really comfy.

Also in my box was a tape measure so I can give myself an at home fitting, and some socks in pretty colors. The socks are nice! I'm not really a fan of socks and only wear them when I have to, but these fun colored ones from the VS Sport line are very light and breathable. All in all, I'm very happy with my first ever VoxBox and I'm grateful to Influenster and Victoria's Secret for giving me a chance to test out the products.
