I am 14 and am pretty skinny but I have a pretty big breasts and it is really ahrd for me to find my bra size. I know it is stupid but I am embarrassed to get measured at a store. So I was wondering if anyone could figure out my bra size for me if I gave them my measurements. Thanks for the help.
above bust: 28
bust:31
under bust: 25
***all of these are raw measurements I didn't add five or anything
Are u really suppose to add five to your under bust measurement cause that never works for me.

When using all three measurements to calculate with:
above bust is the band size. 28
underbust (+5 and rounded even) to confirm the band. (yours is 30, this indicates that you're a half size - 29)
fullest bust - band size = cup (31-28 = 3 and 31-29 = 2)
So, what you fit to is:
28C or 30B -- the cup in these two sizes will be the same, the question becomes which band you prefer. The real question will be whether you can even find a 28C (that's a very large 28).
If you can find a 28C then you'll want to wear it on the loosest hook. With a 30B you'll use the tightest hook. If you could find a 29B, it'd go in the center. Different styles and brands will fit differently. You have to try them on for a good fit.
Note: there are indeed bras made under 32, 30 is not uncommon at all. The challenge you will have is that a 28 is hard to find in anything other than AA and A. Even a 30 will be a challenge but not impossible.

You measure under the breasts and add a cup size for each increment larger the breasts are. I am 36 inches below the bust. I am 40 inches across the breasts. I wear a 36D because there are 4 inches difference in the two ABCD.
You are really tiny. I think the smallest bra the sell is a 32, but you are only 25inches around. You might try a sports bra in small to help support you.

I dont think they make a band size less than 32" and based on the difference between your band and bust sizes you would be a C Cup. That may be hard to find on a normal rack at the store. I'd go to Victoria Secret and just ask them to help you find the right bra. They are very nice there and make you feel like a woman. You dont even have to buy the bra there if you don't want ~ just get measured and try on some bras to see how they fit. Do Not go to like Sears, Penney's or Kohl's where it is all older women and they make you feel dumb.

You can try a 28C.
The add 5 rule doesn't work for everyone....sometimes you only need to add 3 or use your overbust measurement.....in both cases this would make your band size 28 and with a 3 inch difference between the bust measurement and band size, this would be a C cup.

The only ones of us who choose bra size do so with the help of a trained plastic surgeon. To determine bra size, you measure across the breasts and under them. The under bit determines the number part, and the difference between the two determines the cup size. I have known scary elderly lingerie store ladies who could determine bra size by looking at a woman, as well as a, um, very interested young man or two, but it probably requires a bit of experience. They all certainly had it.
