cage just below her bust so this is actually the band measurement so we’re
actually the band measurement so we’re
actually the band measurement so we’re getting 36 okay now this is where it
getting 36 okay now this is where it
getting 36 okay now this is where it gets a little complicated with different
gets a little complicated with different
gets a little complicated with different bra companies so some of them will
bra companies so some of them will
bra companies so some of them will actually want you to add two inches on
actually want you to add two inches on

then that is measuring just about a
then that is measuring just about a forty three so now you calculate the
forty three so now you calculate the
forty three so now you calculate the difference this is where a math comes in
difference this is where a math comes in
difference this is where a math comes in where’s our math let’s count on your
where’s our math let’s count on your
