Bras are just one of those things that we love to collect, but finding a good bra can be hard. A lot of the time, the bras we tend to like are either too expensive, low quality, or don’t fit. You may not even know where to buy the best bras to begin with. But never fear, ladies, we’ve got your back! Today, we’ve put together an article of the best bras on the market in a variety of different categories to help ensure you’re getting something cute, comfortable, sexy & affordable! So, without further ado, let’s get started!
How to Choose the Right Bra
Before we begin, how do you even choose the right bra with the best fit? Of course, you can always experiment with different sizes until you find the one for you, but nobody has time for that. An easier way is to simply measure your breasts. This is always a good idea to do after a few months, as our weight tends to fluctuate & hormonal changes can also give us a different size over time.
Ultimately, we aren’t going to be able to name the universally best bra. Your best bra will be unique to your own size & your own breasts, so it never hurts to experiment.
How to measure?
You’ll want to measure under your breast to get your band size and in the center of your breasts for your bust size. Then, subtract the band size from the bust size. This will give you the most accurate measurement of what bra size to get.
