Measuring yourself to find your perfect Bra Size

Happy Friday!! 5pm is the start of labor day weekend, so hope you guys are geared up for a fun-filled (and safe) weekend!!

I wanted to post how to measure yourself to find your perfect bra size, because as much as we think we are one size, it's surprising that most of us are actually wrong!!
All you need is a measuring tape!

1) Meaure the BAND Size by: measure around your bra directly under your bust. (Round all fractional measurements to the nearest whole number.mmIf the measurement is even, add 4 inches. If the measurement is odd, add 5 inches)

2) Measure CUP size by: measuring around the fullest part of your bust (while wearing a non-padded bra.) Round all fractional measurements to the nearest whole number.

3) Calculate your bra size: Subtract your band measurement (step 1) from your cup measurement (step 2). Generally, for each inch in difference, the cup goes up by one size.

See Chart Below:


Difference/ Standard Cup Size:
0"-1/2" (1.3 cm) / AA
1/2"- 1" (2.6 cm) / A
2" (5.1 cm) / B
3" (7.6 cm) / C
4" (10.2 cm) / D
5" (12.7 cm) / DD or E
6" (15.2 cm) / DDD or F
7" (17.8 cm) / G
8" (20.3 cm) / H
9" (22.9 cm) / I
10" (25.4 cm) / J
