I thought I would share with you a little bra adventure that has happened to me over the past few days.
I have been hassled (very nicely) by a few people about me needing to get myself a new bra. So I got myself down to M & S and got measured.
The lady got her tape measure and put it underneath my boobs and said 'mmmmm 38 or 40?' and then ran the tape over my boobs and said 'mmmmm E or F'.
So I said to her 'so I am either a 38 or 40 E or an F cup'. 'yes' she said, 'go and have a look'.
To cut a long story short I walked out of M & S with a 40G. Proud I had bought a new bra.
I went to LL session and told my little story to the group, and one of them said, but it doesnt fit! your boobs should be up here!! and hoisted my boobs up round my ears.
So i was recommended a specialist bra shop and went today for a fitting. Not a tape measure in sight, the woman said. mmmm ill go and get some bras for you to try.
I walked out with a 36HH!!!! My boobs are back up where they havent been for years, I looked like i had lost 7lbs instantly, my shape changed completely and I felt a million dollars!!
So, my advise to you is to get yourself measured at a proper bra shop.
(also the lady told me that if you are big chested M & S tend to go up a back size to get more in the cup because they dont do larger than a G/H in the shop)
