December 29, 2013 - Tape Measures

So, I am spilling over in my 65E @HP Bella with lots of cutting on the sides, but when I'm wearing it and measure the fullest part of my bust, the measurement hasn't changed (33")!?! What gives? How do I figure out my actual bust measurement if the tape doesn't change?

By process of elimination, I have deduced the following: 65E obviously too small. @HM Magnolia (which fits like a 65FF) is too big, which leaves me with 65F. However, all of the bands are slipping, so remeasuring myself with a 27" band size puts me at 60FF.

Now, the question is, when it comes to taking my bust measurement for clothing, how do I do that before I get the 60FF?

And since I am still loosing weight, should I even get the 60FF or wait until my wait plateaus (I am quite broke at the moment).

  • Why would you go down to a 55? A 27" band would be a 60, unless your BTT is closer to 24".

  • Thanks, I hadn't noticed that.
