Default Bra size

I ve never been perticually insecure about the size or them being too big or too small.

Ive never had mine properly measured until the other day when i went with one of my friends. It turned out i was a 34D and she was a 36 B. For some reason she was upset and has always been kinda insecure about her size. Forever buying padded or gel bras.

I was wondering if any of you felt that yours being too big or small effected your confidence or performance when on stage, finding clothes or underware??!

My bust has generally been my best feature, but the truth is, the bust comes as a complete package with this bum! (Not putting myself down, just being real... being big all over has both it's advantages and drawbacks.)

However a while ago I discovered that like most people, I was wearing a chest size too large and a cup size (several) too small. It was discovered mostly through trying stuff on, rather than measurement. The 'correct' back measurement ends up riding up my back.

However the one thing that irritates me is the inconsistency in sizes. Just as you think you've got the size right in one shop, you pick something else off the rail, and the different cut or manufacturer means it doesn't fit remotely the same as the last thing you bought

I'm a 36DD so I am quite big. It doesn't affect my confidence at all as I am really proud of them lol. I do find it hard to find underwear that fits though. I only had one bra that fits well but the underwire fell out on Monday. And I bought a really good bra last week but have managed (Lord knows how) to lose it somewhere.
I find it hard to buy some clothes too. I have a small waist, so clothes that fit me at the bust are too big at the waist and vice versa.
That's the only problem I have with them

I have the sa,e problem buying clothes I have a big bust and hips but small waist and clothes either hang from the chest down or i cant do them all the way up and have to wear another top underneath. One day I will find a bra that fits properly and buy Hundreds of the same one!

I'm quite blessed in this department and love my boobs although I sometimes wish they were smaller when I'm trying on high street clothes and have to go up a couple of sizes to accommodate them. I think the advantage of smaller boobs is that you can always pad them out when you want them bigger. There's nothing I can do to make mine any smaller, save wearing those awful minimiser bras!

Three cheers for boobs of all sizes!

I'm a 34C and I have to say that I hate them, I'd love to be small, like a double A or something. Most people think that's really odd, my chappie thinks I'm mad but I've always loved that androgenous (sp??) waif-like look.

But then I look at larger women and think they look amazing too!!

I guess we're never happy with what we've got right??!! :-)

Im a 36B and Ive always thought my boobs are too small.

I think its because the rest of the women in my family are quite busty and Im kind of the only person who isnt, so relatives used to make fun of me when I was younger.

Ah well, the grass is always greener!
