When Is It Time to Replace Your Bra?

It's ok to have a favorite blouse or t-shirt to wear, but when it comes to what you wear under it, older & comfy is not better. Wearing a stretched out piece of elastic as a bra just doesn't cut it. Not for long-term comfort or for a fashionable fit.

Here are the four telltale signs that your bra needs replaced:

1. The Color Has Changed. Your white bra is looking grey and discolored. The nude, black and other colors have faded.
   
   
2. The Fabric Is Stretched Out. The band doesn't feel tight enough and rides up in the back. No matter how hard you try to adjust them, the straps keep slipping off your shoulders. You're not getting the support you need.
   
   
3. The Fabric Looks Worn. Threadbare fabric increases your risk of show-through and the underwires might start to poke through, too.
   
   
4. It's Too Tight or Too Loose. Don't blame the bra. Your body has changed. For better or worse, it's time for a new bra. Find the right size using AVON's easy fit guide
   

AVON's easy fit guide is comprised of three easy steps:

1. While wearing a bra and with a tape measure, start by measuring firmly around the rib cage at the bra line. The tape measure should be horizontal around the body, not drooping in the back. Round up to the closest whole number. Add 4 inches to that measurement and round up to the next even number. For instance, if you measure 35 inches, add 4 inches (now 39) and round up to the next even number: 40. Your band size is 40.
   
   
2. Next, hold the tape measure firmly around the fullest part of the bust. Make sure the tape measure is taut and straight. Round up or down to the closest whole number. This is the bust size measurement.
   
   
3. Note the difference between your band size(Step1) and the second measurement. Use the following as a guide to finding your cup size: If your bust measurement is up to 1/2" larger than your band size, your cup size is AA. A difference of 1" indicates an A cup, 2" is a B cup, 3" is a C cup, 4" is a D cup, 5" is a DD or E cup, and 6" is a DDD or F cup. Follow this guide, but always try on a range of sizes above and below your measurement to ensure a good fit.
