4 Tips for Your Best Fitting Bra Ever

A comfortable bra is one of the most important elements in your wardrobe, yet many women across the globe are wearing a bra that does not fit them for one reason or another. These women do not realize that their perfect bra is out there; it just may take some time to find. Here are 4 easy tips for how to find the perfect bra and how to take care of it once you find it.

1. Re-measure often

Like any part of your body, your breasts are constantly changing. Even if you have been the same size your entire life, you may be surprised by the comfort of a different size. You should be re-measured after a change in your weight (even if it is only a few pounds!), during pregnancy or about once per year.

2. Try every bra on

Even within the same brand bras can be drastically different. Even if you find one that is very comfortable, the next might pinch or lack support where you need it. Think of the time that you spend trying bras on as an investment in your own comfort. It may be time consuming but you are worth it!

3. Take care of your bra

It is always best to hand wash your bra in cold water although machine washing is possible. It is very important that all bras hang to dry since heat will weaken the elastic. Also, since washing can strain your delicates, your bras will last longest if you have several that you rotate between instead of using the same few every day.

4. Know when to replace

Bras should be replaced after approximately 100 wears and washes. After this point the straps start to lose their elasticity and will fall down. This is not only annoying but it also places more strain on your back and shoulders. If you are not sure how long you have had your bra, it is a good idea to look for a replacement once the colors begin to fade, the straps get stretched out or a hole develops.

No woman should settle for a bra that no longer fits her or is not the ideal size and shape for her body.
