    I just buy what I think I am. I've never been measured.
    I'm a 36B atm, but want to get down to a 34B.

    I wouldn't mind being a C cup either :rolleyes:

    34E.

    I wouldn't trust internet sizing sites.

    All the people I know that have been measured properly have found they were actually a different size.

    And the majority of people I know that have been measured properly went up at least one cup size. :yes:

    Surely 34B and 32C are the same size?

    marks and spencer are crap at measuring. they always give measurements that are too big round the back and too small in the cup. Im not the only person whos said this.
    I always have to try bras on in the shop, as different shops have different sizes. Its really annoying.

    Yes. Try finding a 38D bra that'll fit and still make you look sexy, on a studenty kinda budget.

    The one on the left is a 30ff, and the one on the right is a 30f. As I was going through puberty, M&S told me I was a 36A - the next day I wasn't convinced and went to another shop, and was correctly measured at 30D. I've ordered bras from the R+P site, because it saved me the time of going to London (although I live there now) to get them. To me, they're worth it, but it's annoying that I have to fork out about £50 a time. Ah well, can't wait for the reduction :D

    well- maybe a fiver each.
    Ive seen bras up to a DD or E cup in peacocks , and I know marks and spencer do large sizes.

    Well it is only fair that you pay more since our bras are made from half the amount of material :p

    Hehe aye, but you get them cheaper, it's easier for you to get nice designs, and it's a hell of a lot more likely you'll be able to pick up a bra in your size on your average shopping trip than a larger chested lady.

    And it's not our fault *stomps*

    :p

    Actually that confuses me! Cos whenever I go in to M&S or wherever all I see is huuuuge sizes that i could practically live in, I can never find smaller sized bras. Then the other day my mate, who is lets say "larger chested" was moaning that when she goes in they only have small sizes. It's a conspiracy! :eek2:

    Hehe, exactly. And if I'm ever lucky enough to see a bra in my size in the high street, it usually looks so ridiculously huge that it's just...well, ridiculous really. And somewhat depressing to think that I'm that huge. When really, I'm not.

    Perhaps that's why blokes get the wrong idea about bra sizes :chin: For example, some mates of mine will go on about 'this well fit bird' with 'fucking HUGE tits', who must be 'a DD!!'. Which really, IMO, isn't that big.
