We recruited help from our newsroom administrative assistant Millicent Coins.

We visited www.ThirdLove.com, clicked on the Try Before Buying tab and took a fit quiz. The company sells 59 different sizes ranging from AA to G. They even offer half sizes.

At the end of the quiz, ThirdLove recommended a style and we picked the color.

Millicent went with the T-shirt bra in the naked-4 color.

You've probably seen the advertising on social media. The online company ThirdLove is so confident you'll like its bras, it lets you take the tags off before buying.

After paying $2.99 for shipping, the 30-day trial starts. You can even take the tags off to really get a true feel for the bra.

“Look at this,” she said while pulling the bra out of the box. "I love the color.”

Before the news business, Millicent spent more than a decade selling bras at a popular lingerie store.

"My only concern just from my first look is this seam here,” she pointed out. “With this big stitch here under tight clothes, will it show?"

Millicent stepped into the closet and came out to check herself out in the mirror.

"You don't see the seam,” she said. “That was my biggest worry. It's really smooth and looks like my skin color."

For a closer look, check out the side-by-side comparison. Her old bra is on the left, the ThirdLove bra is on the right.

"I like it,” Millicent said. “I don't want to say that I like it, but I like it."

We took the tags off and let Millicent wear it for 5 days. When we checked back, Millicent said that her ThirdLove was definitely worth it.

"I do want to keep it,” she said.

If you decide to keep the bra after the 30-day period, your credit card is charged $68 If you return the bra, ThirdLove will donate it to charity.

By the way, a $68 pending charge will show up on your banking statement as soon as you place the order. That authorization will disappear in a few days. The only charge you’ll pay upfront is for shipping.

If you have something you’d like Tiffany to try, send her an email telltiffany@khou.com.
