I have a bra size of 32DD and wondered what the other ladies sized like myself did to figure out proper sizing in the lingerie. I have measured myself lots of times and know that part of it but are there any other tips or tricks I should look out for before buying lingerie?
Suggestions on Sizing..

It is really hard. I have a hard time as well. I can wear any where form a large to 2x, which is ridiculous. I was just telling my mother in law that I am going to start buying two sizes at a time and sending back the one that does not fit, but that is not really possible since that would cost me twice as much at one time.
I order up. When my measurements are on the higher end of one size, I go with the next size, since lingerie tends to run small, usually. Usually it ends up being slightly big, but functional. Sometimes it is too big, but most of the time it fits.

Good idea, I'll just try ordering up a size.

It is ridiculous, isn't it? Measuring is useless. It is all trial and error. If I order something from a company and it turns out too small, I order a size up the next time I try something from the same company (when there is a size up, which there often isn't).
Cottelli sizes seem accurate, from my first purchase, at least.

Glad to know I'm not the only one having issues with it.
