Memorial Day is a time of remembrance, and a time of togetherness. Today, most people in the United States are getting together to have barbecues, picnics, and just general cookout fun! However ladies, you must start this busy day off right: by selecting the right bra.
Good bras take a little bit of effort from the user - you have to be properly sized and fitted for the bras you buy, otherwise they will not fit properly. A good bra will do more than just lift the breasts: a good bra will also provide the right support you need to get on with your day! The cooking, socializing, shopping, and everything else in our busy schedules these days demands that we take this little step in taking care of ourselves.
The secret to a well-fitting bra is all in the measurements. There are two measurements that must be done: a chest measurement and a cup measurement. To size yourself for both measurements, get a measuring tape and a mirror.
For a chest measurement, run the measuring tape right under your breasts, all the way around your back and rib cage. Once you have the measuring tape in place properly, note your measurement and add five inches. If your measurement comes out odd, round up to the next even number.
For a cup measurement, run the measuring tape along the fullest part of your breasts. You will want to wear a comfortable bra for this one, while avoiding sports bras and padded bras. Once you take the measurement, write it down.
The chest measurement is your band size. Band size is a major part of a well-fitting bra. Wearing a bra with an extra small band puts strain on your chest, and leads to back and muscle problems.
The cup size is derived from the chest measurement minus the cup measurement. The difference in these numbers is where the cup size comes in. Below is a breakdown of what each number corresponds to:
| Difference of… | Corresponds to… |
| 1 | A |
| 2 | B |
| 3 | C |
| 4 | D |
| 5 | DD (also an E) |
| 6 | DDD (also known as F) |
| 7 | G |
| 8 | H |

[…] I touched briefly on taking proper bra measurements already, but I neglected to take it to the next level and show how to measure the rest of the body. […]

[…] Posted Deluxe Grrl today was an article on bra fitting that I found had lots of helpful tips. In the end it doesn’t matter if the bra is cute or you got it at a good price if it doen’t fit.
