At The Gonch a middle aged lady asked me for either a 38B or 38C bra. Clearly she was more like a 32 B. Either that or she had some serious self esteem issues. Confused, I asked her if she was sure she needed at 38, because she looked more like a 32. She didn't know the difference between cup size and band size. How does this happen?! How long has she been wearing a bra that doesn't fit?!
For the record: cup size is the actual breast itself and is measured by a letter, and bandsize is the number of inches around the ribcage.
Random: Every woman's left breast is slightly larger. Some women's lefty is a whole cup size different. In this case, it's a good idea to fit a bra for that one and then stuff little righty with an enhancing pad. Most lingerie stores sell this pad or might have extras lying around, so you can just ask for one.

The moment I saw A B C D DD E - I knew right away that this was a La Senza post... I remember that poster. Both the alphabet and the girl modelling it has forever been imprinted on my mind.

Hahaha! Really? I haven't even seen that poster (or the chick). I just thought it'd be a cool title. So did you read the entry anyway? :P
