BRA CONFIDENCE

Hello Loves
Happy Monday people, i believe your weekend went on well, yeah? mine was amazing and i thank God. Okay, so, Finding the right size bra is often a trouble for many women, a good number of women wear the wrong size bra. This is not healthy for your breasts, more especially if the breasts are in a too tight bra.You need to let your breasts have free time from bras daily. This will help the lymph flow inside your breasts. And when choosing a bra, ensure that you have a fitting session to avoid going home with the wrong size.And remember the right-size bra completely changes the shape of your body by lifting your breasts to where they belong and slims your whole figure.Below are some few steps that you need to follow when choosing your right size bra.


Measure your band size

Run a  tape measure all the way around your body just underneath your breasts and take a measurement in inches. Make sure the tape measure is horizontal and fairly snug. And your arms should be down




.

Determine your cup size
Breasts are different in terms of shape (even between your own breasts), the most accurate way to determine our cup size is by using your current bra size as a starting point. The cups are sized relative to the band, so if you were to try a smaller band size but keep the same cup size, the cups would be too small.
NOTE:
The majority of leading brands use UK cup sizing: AA, A, B, C, D, DD, E, F, FF, G, GG, H, HH, J, JJ, K, KK, L, LL. If you're shopping and you a get a US cup, you might see cup sizes such as DDD or DDDD. These are equivalent to E and F.






Do the fitting of the bra
You should not regard this as your definitive size until you have tried on a few bras,





and even then you will often find you need a different size in different brands or styles of bra.

Check the band size
The correct band size is the smallest you can comfortably wear.



It needs to be firm enough that the bra is still fairly supportive without weighing down heavily on the shoulder straps.

See how it looks with your top on

When you find a new bra that fits well, maybe in a different size or style to the ones you're used to. Try and see what it does for your figure.

If you're trying a t-shirt bra it's also important to make sure it gives you a smooth line under fitted clothes.


With the right bra size comes along with major confidence.
love lots

 Tell me about your style
My style is personal. It’s a constant reinvention of different tastes.

My phone, wallet, Victoria's secret (body splash, hand moisturizer and lip gloss). Eye pencil and wet wipes.





what is a must have in your closet?
A hot pair of heels

None of the above. Fashions fade, style is eternal as Yves Saint Laurent put it well.

So what's your take on the latest trends?  Yay to all, or nay to some?
 A definite nay to quite a few.

Both. My wardrobe actually consists of both extremes only.

Plain flats or heels 4inches and above only.

You are a proud mummy, so has being a mum changed your way of dressing?yes? How?
Yes. Especially having a daughter, I want her to be proud of her mummy.

To both be her inspiration and guidance. I wouldn't wear anything I wouldn't want to see her in but still be a cool mum.

Amazing gal, so ,what fashion advice would you like to give to out?
Find what fits your body shape, skin color, is suitable for your age and cultivate your style. Be free to experiment and ask for advice if need be. You'll find the best tidbits from the unlikeliest of places.
