Important Undergarment Facts
When you pick out your next round of bra and panties, here are a couple things to keep in mind:
- Are you still the same size you were the last time you bought panties that fit? Bodies change, and when they do your panty size may change as well. When you are wearing underwear that is too tight or too loose, they aren't going to make you feel good. Panties should be like a second skin, you should not notice they are there until you're taking them off. If you notice your underwear during the day, odds are you should check out a bigger or smaller size and see if you have changed sizes since the last time you checked. If you have, remember to get rid of your old underwear that is a different size. You don't want any surprises when you reach into your drawer in the morning and accidentally put on a pair of too-tight undies. Ouch!
- Have your bra size checked professionally. When you are in the mall, there are plenty of stores that would be happy to professionally measure you for your proper bra size on the spot. It's worth the few minutes of discomfort for the next bra you buy to be the right size. A comfortable bra is not difficult to find if you are wearing the right bra size. Let someone tell you what you need and after they do, try on a bra in that size and talk to the saleslady about fit and have her check the back and make sure it fits correctly. It will be well worth it.
