Bra shopping is one of those activities that I have a love/hate relationship with.
On the one hand, it always feels nice to wear brand-new undergarments.
But on the other hand, the journey to find the perfect bra is rarely one free of obstacles.

Spills are never a good thing, including in the world of undergarments.
Don’t let your bra straps make things even worse.
“Proper bra support should come from the underband, not the straps,” said Robertson.
“If the straps are digging into the shoulders, they are supporting too much weight of the breasts.
Let your ribs carry some of the bust weight to help give your shoulders a rest.”
She also stressed, “Shoulder straps should never hurt.

This may be a good thing if you’re at a lively concert.
Rubbing you the wrong way
Wearing something uncomfortable is awful.
Wearing something that is straight up painful is the absolute worst.
“Chafing is sparked by sweating and rubbing against the skin.
“You lose bust weight in the first 10-15 pounds,” Decker added.
“After that, it is OK to purchase new bras.
This will help you look and feel better about your new body.”

A good bra will help lift and separate.
The same goes for your sports bra, said Moylan.
Heck, it’s your bra, you should wear it your way!”
