Ladies bra size question?

okay so i was a 34B and it was a little small on. My mom told me to move up to a 36B, and the cups fit perfectly, but the straps were loose even when i adjusted them to the smallest. I've heard that i should move up to a 34C but i feel like my breasts are too small to be a C cup,(i really dont know) . I do plan on trying them on to see if it will fit, and i want to measure myself when i buy a tape measure. I dont feel comfortable going and getting sized professionally, so please dont tell me to do that. Should i re try on a 34B because the bras were kind of old. A

    A 34C is the same cup size as a 36B, but on a shorter band. Cup size changes with the band: http://fullerfigurefullerbust.files.wordpress.com/...

    36B cups are bigger than 34B cups so in order to get the same cup size as a 36B on a smaller band, you go up a cup for every band you go down. So 34C/32D/30DD/etc have the same cup volume.

    Anyway, get a tape measure and use this guide as a starting point: http://www.thinandcurvy.com/2010/10/how-to-measure...

    And once you get your size, you go up or down from that point to find the size you like (measuring only helps you get a starting point to help narrow down sizes). Example: Someone who measures 32D can try on 30DD, 34C and so on (one cup down = one letter up and vice versa). Add or remove inches to whichever size you're comfortable with. Although it's not a good idea to go too loose in the band. 80% of the support comes from the band since it keeps the whole bra in place and a loose band will cause straps and cups to move around.

    is this a philosophical question? or only a visit down mammary lane...tee hee Take measurements, then you definately comprehend what length (diameter). so a procedures as cup length it truly is a rely of attempting them on & seeing what suits. sure i have heard that maximum women don't have the right length. you may continually bypass to a underclothes shop & have someone help you with a installation. i do not comprehend of a bra that enables with breast improve! in case you may invent one you should positioned plastic surgeons out of commercial corporation & change right into a millionaire! Tee hee! There are bras which will make you look larger (with padding etc, or push-up bras which push them at the same time & provide you extra cleavage). the right thanks to come back across a sturdy bra is to objective a great number of of them on & see which one you want. an outstanding type of ladies at the moment are captivated with their breast length. i comprehend 2 those who are growing boob jobs. in my opinion i ought to in no way do this! i'm happy with what I easily have. no longer too enormous or too small. perfect. i'm a 34B. some women have surgical procedures & finally end up searching like sketch characters with DDs! it isn't any longer healthful. I blame the media for bombarding us with unrealistic pictures of ladies. besides, sturdy success. chuffed procuring!

    Your shoulder shape must be causing them to constantly slip. , Just stay as a 36B but look for a bra style that goes well with your shoulder shape.
