Finding the perfect bra

Here are her tips:

You can be a woman that owns more than one bra that fits comfortably, just follow these great guidelines.

Measure your breasts


Go to one of those really nice places like La Senza and get them to measure you up properly (and do it in the middle of your cycle!).

Window Shop

Very soon after being measured – preferably in the same shopping trip – Set aside a couple of hours wherever you shop for undies regularly.

Find your bra style


Try on all the generic “we’ve always got stock” styles in the size the measure-up  revealed is you current size, find one you really like and buy 4 to 6 bras in that style in a nice range of colours that you know that you will wear!  

Why will it work...

You spent the time and effort on the homework part and you like the result you’ve got because you know it fits before you get to the cashier, you know you won’t look at it later and think “why did I buy this?”

While it might be more expensive to buy four to six bras at a time… you will always have a nice comfortable bra to wear.

If you keep in mind that your bra is supposed to fit properly on the last set of hooks. You can use the others as the elastic stretches a bit and you need to tighten the fit.

Take great care with washing, the more pedantic you are, the longer they will last. You will ensure that it’s worth the Bi-Annual Bra Hunt Day event.

You can always go bra hunting with a friend to make it more fun.

Take a friend who challenges you to step out of yourself, so that you end up with at least one super sexy purchase, hopefully more!.

REMEMBER the first step is important to do EVERY time as your body changes all the time!
