Bravado’s Bliss Giveaway

by 186 Comments

I love Bravado, I wore Bravado Nursing Bras exclusively, I mean, I tried other brands, but ended up disappointed and always came back to what was comfortable. Now, Bravado sent me a bra for a donation and I looked at it and I wish they had the Bliss just a few years ago. It’s an amazing design, looks so soft and supportive, with the extra soft cushioning.

In a nutshell, Bliss is your everyday, foam cup t-shirt bra that will soon become a staple in your nursing wardrobe (plus it’s gorgeous!). The cups are smooth, and seamless for discretion and comfort, the neckline is low and the fabric is satiny and fabulous.

The main innovation in Bliss is Bravado’s proprietary Flexi-FitTM support channel: a flexible (yet structured) under-breast support system that will give you an elegant shape and exceptional fit for everyday use. (So you can picture it, this is basically a short, firm but flexible channel.) The result is not only unbelievably comfortable, but also a critical innovation for breast health: you will not experience pressure, which can be the source of milk duct compression and can lead to infection or mastitis.

Other features include:
– Light foam in the cups (perfect for hiding nipples and breast pads), molded to fit beautifully
-  Seamless appearance under clothing, and tops just glide over the fabric.
-  Double-cup sizing:  (as you already know) a breastfeeding mother’s size can change literally, a cup size in a hour. So purchasing a nursing bra with a fixed or traditional bra size (36C, for example) won’t work, especially in those early stages. Bravado has pioneered this critical sizing system, which means one bra fulfills your needs much better – and gives you fabulous value.
– Design features including a delicate center front detail and embroidered straps to give this bra a lovely look, while maintaining that seamless appearance.
Colors: Ivory, Chai, Black


Bliss is perfect for all stages, including pregnancy, early and late nursing and is ideal for when you are out and about, going back to work or when you simply want to look gorgeous.

I am very happy to post this information and giveaway provided by Bravado because I believe in their products. Bravado also sent me some other products to donate and that will be a separate post. They deserve it. Thanks for the donation and the giveaway.

I used Bravado Nursing Bras and now I get to give them away. #giveaway

When I was pregnant the first time I was working in a boutique that I managed and loved working at. We sold Bravado and we could not keep them in stock. So I decided that when I was ready to start nursing and using a bra I wanted to try them. I didn’t use anything else and I didn’t know they made any quite so sexy as the picture to the left.

I was excited that I was able to choose a pink and a blue one instead of leopard print, nude or black. Now this one is so new that it’s not even available on-line yet but it will be by the time my giveaway is over. You know me and long giveaway entry times. (I’m lazy and need the extra time)

I used my bras and slept in them. I lived in them. There is something about having a breast full of milk that is extremely uncomfortable so wearing a bra 24/7 was my solution. They are so easy to hook and unhook. They even have different hook designs. I was just really impressed with the quality as well because I washed them and dried them and I didn’t have any problems. They never got any holes in them or damage in any way. They are quality bras. I think I had about five total so I would always have one clean.

I did try another brand but I went back to Bravado and purchased more.

So, the Sublime Nursing Bra, comes in Cherry that you see above or in French Vanilla. I’m loving the cherry. Picking out a size is a bit of a challenge, I do recommend having yourself measured, but they do have a suggestion chart based on what you were before you were pregnant. I found them to be very accurate.
