Short rant/ Story
I know my calculated bra size but I wanted to get a bra from VS because it seemed like the cheapest thing to do while I'm still growing and I was gravely in need of a comfy bra. The fitter asked me if I knew what my bra size was and since I was popping out of my 32C's I told her that I'd like to try 32D. She brought me a few in the size and I had the same problems with all. After swooping and scooping, i was spilling out of the cups. She took one look and said I should try 32DDs and I thought absolutely no way! It's not that I don't want to be able to fit them but my boobs in the mirror looked so small to me. I told her I do not want to be a DD but in my head I added "Not with these small boobs".
What made matters worse was that the cheapest bras they had all ended in D. I made up my mind that firstly there bras probably run small and secondly I could probably pull off 32D because the fit wasn't too terrible.
Now if I was a person with small boobs and a decent band measurement then I would not have so much trouble with bras but companies don't even make bands as small as I am and when you add big boobs on top of that the situation is worse because you'll must likely need costume made bras which cost a hell of a lot of money.
A perk that comes with having small/smallish breast is that you will must likely find a comfy bra no problem but relatively big boobs makes bra shopping a whole lot more frustrating. So I'm sitting her spilling out of the 32D bra that I bought because it was cheaper and I'm just not ready to accept 32DD and I just wish more bra companies catered to small band big bust people and that bras wouldn't be so expensive for us.
