Yeah so I totally thought I was a 36B and it turns out I... am.

Kind of an anti-climax after all that 'women! know your bra size! you will do yourself a boob injury' hype.

Slightly disappointing not to have a spritual, discovering-my-true-size experience, but I spose my mad tape measuring skills aided me in this.

Love La Senza tho

haha, congrats to you. la senza is lovely

i have never gotten myself measured properly, but i did it myself awhile ago and i was shocked, i was miles out from what i was wearing.

however the bra size i measured for is possible to find so i just kept wearing my normal one. i am doing myself much boob damage.

i have the same problem i can never find a bra thats what i want in the size i actually need so i keep wearing the easier to find size that doesn't fit right
being both short of money and picky doesn't give a lot of choices available to me on hard to find bras

Yeah, same here. I think I'm a 32 C but it's hard to find those, so I just get 34 Bs or Cs, depending on the style and what fits best. They neglect boob shape anyways. If yours don't stick out that far but are round (like mine) the "right size" won't fit because the wire won't go all the way around them. I may not be wearing the right size as I've not been officially measured, but if I've tried on everything around what the right size may be, and I'm wearing the one that fits best, I'm not really sure what a measuring tape could fix for me.

you poor souls. i only have a small handful, i cannot empathise, but you have my sympathy nonetheless.

haha
there it is again
i tell you you are my younger twin!
thats my size too 32C
i end up w/ 34 B instead
the band under the boobs is too loose
and then the boobs are not completely covered right
i hate underwires though and refuse to wear them they are too painful especially since things are shaped different now than before i was pregnant
and i've got the same thing too w. the roundness, even when i was going through puberty i was always more round boobed than my friends
it was nice at the time but by now i think it would be easier if i had started off with the little arrow-head looking boobs most people get at first

if i were to correctly measure, i'd probably be an 'a' cup. i can't be assed to bother though so, meh.

Rumors say la senza makes bras one size bigger just to flatter their customers...hm.

well i'm gonna go to rigby and peller (where the queen gets hers done) to pick up some bras too. so i'll get measured there as well.

generally in a cups my boobs are kinda spilling out and it makes me look odd, but it depends on the place... bras are funny things

I'm highly unlikely to cause myself any physical damage by wearing the wrong size. I've been wearing 34A for as long as I can remember although I had a period about 4 years ago where I was a bit fatter and started wearing 36A. I always just measured myself. My bras tend to fit perfectly, except when I've lost a bit of weight. I'm probably more like a 32A at my ideal weight. Small boobage over here.

Oh and I'm a M&S girl. Heh.

i've always worn the right bra size. don't know how it;s such a revalation to get a tape measure.

yeah, this is one of the reasons I don't wear those anymore.

I haven't gotten measured by I buy 34A and it seems to fit right. I've tried on other sizes but they didn't feel right.

i miss my a-cups dearly.


i was wearing a 36b for the longest time (since 13, birth control), but measured myself & realised i'm a c. now i can't find any cute bras, but when i was shopping before all the cute ones were 36c.

I have no idea what bra size I am anymore. I wonder what the sizing is like in Ireland.

I was wearing like a 32a/b for ages, then i got measured properly, I'm a 30D lol whoops there.

Finding 30D's is next to impossible tho, La senza have one style that they make in a 30D and it comes in lots of colours so thats cool I suppose.

Ha, ha, same thing happened to me. They had a big sign in the store saying they did fittings, and I've read so much about how people wear the wrong bra all the time, and 36DD is a bitch to find anyway....and then I have the chick measure me and I'm a 36DD, exactly what I was wearing

How do you actually measure yourself? I'd been meaning to nip into M&S and get measured again, because the last time I was measured was when I was about 13. I had thought I was a 34B, but we're always being told that 90% of women wear the wrong sized bras...or something.

they have instructions in the JCPenney catalog
but i don't think i have one right now
you could probably look on their website and it would most likely have it
