I subscribed to the Empress Box because I love 99% of Empress Mimi's underwear 😍
I received my first box and i was happy with it. The bra was slightly too small and I needed to go up a size. I wasn't aware I could contact Empress Mimi for a swap, but by the time I'd actually had a chance to try the bra on my second box was due to be ordered (I'd been severely unwell for almost a month). Sooo I just left it. The first set is so, so gorgeous though and I felt amazing and beautiful in it 🖤.
The second set arrived yesterday. I can't remember whether I'd said I'd wear nudes, but I don't wear nude coloured underwear.. ever. I received the Jacqueline set. It's not something I'd order because the pearls outline the breasts and I have some slight extra skin on my breasts due to a medical condition, so I would never order something where your boobs have to fit in a shape (I don't think I'm explaining this well?). My boobs don't fit into bras like this. I tried the bra on anyway, even though I don't wear nude colours and I don't go for a bra that outlines your breasts with something other than fabric, without underwire.
The bra gets lost on me because the fabric is basically my skin colour, and I almost cried because it's so, so unflattering for my boob shape - particularly as I've got some extra skin which I'm really self conscious about. If the bra was any other colour it wouldn't be tooooo bad, but the nude colour just kills it.
I was willing to take the hit, and hoping I could view my preferences to see if I'd said I'd wear nude colours. But you can't view/change your preferences 😭
Like I said originally.. I really love 99% of Empress Mimi's underwear, hence why I originally subscribed, and I *loved* the first box, but the Jacqueline set is something I'd never choose because of the colour + design. And the reason I'm unsure whether to continue is because there's no option to view/change preferences, and I don't want another nude set to be in any future box. I feel like this months box is a waste of £79 and it made me feel really self conscious 😔.
I know it's a random sub, but it would be better if you could view/change preferences.
