Over shoulder boulder holders

I need some new over shoulder boulder holders. Where is the best place to go on the high street that measures true and is reasonably priced?

No blinking clue but I Grin because that's what my DH calls my bras .

I buy Primark, lots of them, I need thick straps and at least 2 hook/eyes.
Fresh one every day (no 3 day wearing for me) I'm a lazy blighter so they go in the machine in a padded lingerie bag.

Mine was trial'n'error to get my size .

Amazingly I got a great bra in M&S , fits like a dream and is cotton so great for summer.

I don't usually buy bras in M&S , but I recently measured myself with that MN bra link thing so knew my size. I wouldn't trust an M&S saleswoman to assist you as their reputation is awful.

I definitely recommend using the 'Boob or Bust' method, and also to joining the FB group if you use FB. Yes you will likely be shocked with your size but try it on!

Bravissimo definitely has the best rep for measuring true to size for a high street brand, and have a good choice of well made bras. Avoid M&S for measuring as they measure using the "+4 method" meaning they add 4 inches to your band, which is where most of the support of a bra should come from.

Bravissimo always for me

Since I got fitted in Boux Avenue my bras have never felt more comfy! I find my bras last well from there and never rub, they often have a sale on too.

Upper decker wobble checkers my sm used to call them!

Thanks for the replies, I'll have a measure myself at home and see what the size charts recommend and pop into the high street at the weekend.

My nan called them over shoulder boulder holders, but then again she had a GG chest!
