Tape Measure? Don't Mind If I Do! (But Maybe Not That One)

We're going for something a little less medieval torture device and a little more chic haberdashery. Think a soft, fabric measuring tape you might find at a cute craft store. Plus, it doubles as a makeshift lasso in case you get attacked by rogue rogue laundry (we've all been there).

Mission: Underboob Measurement (It Sounds More Glamorous Than It Actually Is)

Now comes the, ahem, fun part: the actual measuring. Stand tall, channel your inner superhero (because you're about to conquer this bra business!), and wrap the measuring tape around your torso directly under your breasts. Breathe normally, and make sure the tape is nice and snug (but not suffocating you – you're not a sausage, darling). This measurement is your underboob circumference, the key to unlocking your band size.

Pro tip: If you can comfortably fit two fingers under the tape, that's the sweet spot. Any tighter, and you'll be singing the blues of a digging band. Any looser, and your bra might become a supportive suggestion rather than, well, actual support.

Voila! You've just translated your underboob circumference into a band size.
