Pasties are a product that usually come to mind at the last minute when planning an outfit that requires more prep than everyday comfy clothes. Plunging v-necks, open backs, and strapless cuts all sound like a great idea until it’s time to figure out what undergarments to pair with them; reusable options can be thick and visible through clothes, while if you opt for a thinner disposable option, it’s practically guaranteed that you’ll be stuck with a standard nude circle or a neon shape fit for a music festival – all of the above being nothing to write home about.
Rather than shying away from a skin-baring outfit choice because of the cons listed above, embrace the challenge and feel sexy doing so with a nipple cover that was designed to be seen. Enter Tita, a new reusable nipple cover that doesn’t make women choose between being functional and feeling confident.
We like
- Variety of cheeky shapes and colors
- Butterfly Tita’s offers a lift
- Reusable up to 20 times
- Instant conversation starter
- Seamless silicone hides the nipple covers well under clothing
We don't like
- Only 2 different nude shades at the moment
- My nipples did poke through a bit due to how thin the silicone is
Having Fun is So Fun:
Let’s state the obvious; we all have nipples that at times, we want to show off, and at others, we don’t. For the moments when we want to do both, Tita offers nipple covers that were made to be seen. Founded in November of 2023 by Martha Upton, Tita was born out of her own personal needs. “Honestly, I was shocked that something like Tita didn’t exist already,” noted Upton. “Yes, you want nipple covers to lay flat and be seamless, but that doesn’t necessarily mean that they need to be so plain.”
After seeking out nipple covers that had a bit more oomph than a standard nude circle, Martha noted that she had a difficult time finding any aside from options that were disposable after one use, or hyper-sexualized pasties that felt more marked towards men vs. the women who would be wearing them. While yes, nude circles are a great option, they shouldn’t be the only option for women seeking undergarments that elevate their outfits instead of simply hiding underneath them.
In contrast to traditional shapewear or body tape that looks less sexy than desired once it’s time to get undressed, Tita puts the “fun” in functional through their product line complete with colorful options and eye-catching shapes that make accommodating tricky clothing options exciting and approachable.
Tita All the Time:When product testing Tita, I was so excited to see my package arrive that I stuck on a pair of the Black Stars ($24) that same day simply to go to Trader Joe’s. Although these unique nipple covers are meant to be seen, something about wearing them under my otherwise bland outfit made me instantly feel sexier; they were my little secret. As I walked up and down the aisles lined with frozen dinners and fresh produce I felt a unique sense of confidence that doesn’t come with wearing the same nude bra I’ve had for longer than I’d like to admit, so much so that before I reached the checkout line I texted a friend to meet for drinks that night to give myself the excuse to pair my Titas with a more revealing option than what I wore while grocery shopping.
Later that night in a dimly-lit cocktail bar I opted for a semi-sheer shirt and jeans with the same Black Star Titas from earlier, and to be frank, I felt hot. Wearing my Titas where they could be seen felt daring and enhanced my outfit in a way that statement earrings or a bold lip have not been able to in the past. However, what stood out to me most was the confidence I carried when my Titas were visible at drinks was the same level of confidence I felt when they were hidden under a sweatshirt. The wearability of Titas goes far beyond moments when they are able to be shown off; even when they are not able to be seen by others the positive feelings that come from wearing them are hard to ignore.
How Will you Tita?
The full Tita lineup is complete with three different shapes and five different color options. On the cheeky side, one can opt for Butterflies or Stars in pastel purple, baby pink, or bold black; while the brand still offers the option of a practical nude circle in a light and dark shade made from Tita’s seamless, ultra-thin, eco-friendly silicone. Additionally, if you’re wearing your Titas in a more formal setting and want them to stay hidden while still leaning into your playful side, the Butterflies and Stars are offered in nude shades, as well.
No matter how and when you wear your Titas, a strong sense of self-confidence is sure to follow. Tastefully blending a playful aspect with a classic closet staple, Tita nipple covers have breathed new life into the undergarment space and we’re here for it.
