This Abercrombie Curve Love Bikini *Actually* Fits My 32F Chest

If you have a bigger bust and smaller band size, you know how impossible it can be to find a well-fiting bathing suit that actually looks stylish. As a 32F, I often feel like my only options are to (A) squeeze into a trendy but ill-fitting bikini that only comes in standard sizes, or (B) settle for a more supportive (but matronly) option with bra sizing. That is, until I found Abercrombie's Curve Love swim line about a year ago.
You may already be familiar with Abercrombie's Curve Love denim, which nixes waist gapping in your favorite jeans by adding extra room through the hip and thigh. So I was delighted when the brand came out with a similar problem-solving product for my fellow big boob, small ribcage girlies. Curve Love swim is designed specifically to accommodate larger cups with a proportionally smaller band size. It fits cup sizes D-F and band sizes 28 through 42.
There are a few different Curve Love styles to choose from, but my personal favorite is the High Apex Underwire Bikini Top. It provides tons of support with built-in underwire and adjustable straps without looking too bra-like. It also has a smaller gore (the landing area between cups), so it separates your girls without pushing them tooooo far apart—meaning you'll still have some cleavage. And the best part? The cups are *actually* wide enough to cover your whole breast from the side, preventing any of that weird armpit bulge.
Underrated feature: this bikini doesn't ride up in the back. Since the band actually fits my smaller ribcage, it evenly distributes the weight of my chest and stays put all day long—a major win in my book. Plus, the band is snug enough around my waist to support my chest from beneath, so it doesn't hurt my neck and shoulders. Now, I can actually enjoy my time at the beach without constantly adjusting my top and stressing about spillage.
I already own this exact bikini in three colors (a girl's gotta have options!), and I'm not the only one who swears by it. "My dream bikini top," writes one happy shopper. "As someone with a large bust and smaller waist I always have a hard time finding swimsuits, this top is the solution! I love it so much that I wish all of my bras fit as good as this bikini top."
"I put these on and immediately wanted to cry tears of happiness," added another reviewer. "I'm 23 and have NEVER been able to find a bikini top that actually fits me...Literally wish I could time travel and bring these to my teenage self."
A bikini that actually fits and flatters my 32F chest is honestly priceless, but this one is reasonably priced at $55. And while you could wait around for one of Abercrombie's sales, we suggest shopping as soon as possible—these popular styles tend to sell out fast.

I Finally Found a Plush But Put-Together Sectional

"Hearst Magazines and Yahoo may earn commission or revenue on some items through these links." For the last seven years, I have been the proud owner of the couch. A fifteen-foot wide, six-piece, extra deep modular sectional wrapped in a delicious linen. (You know the one.) My now-husband and I bought it right after we got engaged and, immediately, got comfortable. Plenty of room to stretch out, sleep, or pack on friends during a party. It was especially appreciated during the Covid years when, living in New York City, couch time reached an all-time high. But, like all things, the piece ran its course. It began to bother me that when my parents were in town visiting, they would complain about getting on and off the notoriously low rise. The slouchiness, which once read as chic and casual, began to look sloppy. As my babies became toddlers, stains began to proliferate. When my husband and I moved this spring, I decided it was time for something new. I still loved the idea of a fluffy cream-colored sectional, but I wanted something more upright and with a higher seat. And, with two kids, a performance fabric would go a long way. Enter: the Sundays Get Together 5-Piece Sectional.$7930.00 at Founded in 2019 in Vancouver, Sundays makes west coast modern pieces that are neither too west coast nor too modern. Here, "west coast modern" really just means relaxed. Unfussy. They have clean lines, minimal frills, and are made from high-quality materials (FSC-certified wood, no sag springs, upholstery without any flame retardants). I got my first item from the brand in 2023—an oversized reading chair for my daughter's room—and I have been impressed by how it has stood up to toddler antics (read: snacks, spilled milk, general roughhousing). It felt like the leap to sofa was worth exploring. The Get Together Sectional is not the brand's only sectional, and they do have options that are more like my former sofa (the Movie Night Sectional, particularly). But even though this piece would be for my den, I still wanted something with a bit more structure. The Get Together seemed like the best balance of welcoming and well-kept. Now several months into having the piece in my home, I feel prepared to offer my full endorsement. Here's why. Delivery is always included in the price of your purchase at Sundays. For anyone who has grown attached to a listing online just to finally hit check-out and suddenly see an exorbitant and unexpected add-on for white glove delivery, you'll know how much a policy like this is appreciated. I found the shippers particularly accommodating in finding a date that worked for me to receive the piece as my move date became a bit of a moving target. Assembly was also included in my delivery and could not have gone smoother. The team helped my husband situate the couch in our new space and was patient about making sure the end result felt correct and that we were certain about how it was situated. No rushing at all. The truth is I got exactly what I was looking for: a plush sectional that is easy to flop on at the end of the night or sit upright on as I tap, tap, tap away at my keyboard, like I am right now. The sectional is a modular arrangement, which means there are several ways to set it up. I chose the five-piece option with a corner arrangement, meaning each piece has a back and the two end pieces have armrests (in other words, it does not have an ottoman tacked onto either end). The standard size, which is what I have, is 114" wide and and 114" deep and 37" high with a seat depth of 25". This is a big change from our previous sectional—and there is a larger size of this arrangement I could have chosen, but I am incredibly happy with how this sofa fills my space. The first week of sitting on my sofa, I will admit I wondered if there was any give expected in the cushions. You didn't bounce off when you sat down, but you didn't sink in, either. A few months later, they've broken ever-so-perfectly. The cushions don't require any fluffing, but the seats have relaxed just a hair. Happy to support you, should you want to be horizontal for a nap or propped up for a show. (I am also happy to report that my own parents have both sat down and stood up, no complaints, thanks to the high frame.) My previous couch actually washed pretty well given it wasn't a performance linen, but there were a few stains that crept up over the years that couldn't be fixed without damaging the fabric. The Sundays stain resistant fabric, however, is playing a different game. It's moisture-repellant—something my children tested immediately with cups of milk and water—and appropriate for the laundry machine (gentle cycle, mild detergent). I probably don't care enough about making sure all of the textiles in my home are non-toxic, but it is nice to know that one I spend so much time is made so cleanly. Absolutely. Furniture is painfully expensive these days—even the stuff made of crap. And it's been refreshing to embrace an investment piece that feels appropriately priced. (It's thousands of dollars less than my previous!) That I was a couple of years into another piece from the brand certainly quelled my anxiety in making such a big piece the focal part of such an important part of our home, but I am 100% confident I would buy other products from this brand for years to come.$7930.00 at You Might Also Like Kid Cudi Is All Right 16 Best Shoe Organizers For Storing and Displaying Your Kicks
