Ooh ok. My only hesitation is sizing myself since I'm rubbish with a tape measure, but my friend's fitting me for a bridesmaid dress today and I might get her to measure me while I do that. I'm fairly certain the current ones only fit because VS sized me for VS bras and they're old and wearing out.

Continuing the hijack...if you haven't been professionally fit you totally should. I measured myself to the best of my ability and got 34D...then finally got fitted and found out I was a 32F. It made a HUGE HUGE difference.

My problem is the only options here are the dept stores and VS. And VS is notorious for fitting to their bras only while the dept stores are nearly as limited in sizing selection :-/
