Stupid question

[Tweety]

Ok i need to measure again for a new bra as i have lost weight, now i seem to be having a blank moment, When i measure around me just under my boobs, that should be the say 34 bit yeah? Whatever it reads is the back size?

Please remind me.
I'm just a little confused as last time i measured i was 39 now i am 33, i can't have lost that much surely, what am i doing wrong?

measure around your ribcage wear your bra strap would lie. yes. but then you add 4" if the measurement is an even number, and 5" if it's odd.

so if it's 33" around, you should be wearing a back size 38.

this is quite helpful (http://www.contessa.org.uk/customerservices.asp?service=1)

Thats the thing though i have 36 bras that are too lose :s.
When i got measured ages ago she said i measured 38 but 36 fit properly. Now even alots of the 36 are too big.

hmm. maybe go get measured again?

either that, or go try a few different sizes on and see which fits best.

Yeah, not sure what to do for the best.

Just nip into a shop and have yourself measured. Its free and doesnt take long :)

not m and s tho, they told me im a 44f but when i tried them on they were the worst fit in the world.

The problem i find is i got measured in la senza last time & the bras from there fit but then nowhere else. i can't afford to buy la senza stuff all the time :(.
