Help me find a bra that fits!!

Hi there, I've recently gotten to the end of my tether as none of my bras seem to fit me quite right. They all ride up at the back and I pop out of the front. I know I really need to figure out a bra size and find some that are comfy but it's so confusing. Have you got any tips on trying to calculate your bra size or recommend any stores? I have a very petite frame so very few places seem to stock my guestimate size of around 28E. Help!

Riding up means the back is too big. Boobs popping out mean cup is too small

Bravissimo is your friend

Bravissimo is generally very good .. but Rigby and Peller are the best imo and worth it as a life long investment.

There's no way I could afford a Rigby and Peller bra. I'd never heard of them before so I googled and they're so expensive. I'm just a student and wouldn't even be able to think of it as an investment.

Could you measure to get a better idea of size and then maybe there could be suggestions of where to get them

I disagree re rigby and peller. I treated myself once before dc, when I had money the bra was OK but not particularly better than any I've had from bravissimo. Plus I've been through at least a dozen bra sizes since then.

Try the Boob or Bust method.

Thanks for everyone's help. The boob or bust method has give me a 28F so I guess I should go to bravissimo and try on those sizes in a few different sizes. That sounds too big for me but I guess because I'm so small the bras are much smaller.
