Wearing a great fitting bra can change your life!
Did you know that 85% of women are wearing the wrong bra size?
The main reason for such a high statistic is that many of us are not being properly fitted for a bra. With stores such as Lane Bryant, Ashley Stewart, Torrid and Macy’s now offering bra fitting, it’s so much easier to walk into one of those stores and be fitted properly for a bra.
There’s even places like Livi Rae Lingerie in Atlanta that are devoted to ensuring that you get fitted the right way and walk out of their store wearing a bra that fits well and that you love.
On that note, here’s 7 bras we have heard amazing things about, with some of them being our own personal favorites — always remember, support your girls and they will support you!
#1: Ashley Stewart’s Full Coverage Butterfly Bra
Several bloggers and models cite the Butterfly bra as their favorite, especially since it provides the perfect amount of cleavage and keeps that back fat smoothed out. Your girls are not moving when wearing this bra. The support is that great. Available in band sizes 38 to 46, in cups D to H. $44.50 – $46.50 [SHOP]

#2: Lane Bryant’s Multiway Boost Strapless Bra
Lane Bryant is known for their bras and their latest have been tweaked (we heard) and it shows. The Boost bras are amazing, but this multiway bra is a godsend. The girls stay in place, look amazing and this can be worn with or without the straps. Available in band sizes 36 to 46, in cups C to H. $44.50 – $59.50 [SHOP]
