A guide to Big Bras, and shopping online

Many women are apprehensive about buying big bras online. Sizing issues, security issues, and just the fact that you can't try it on first. But there are some big upsides, and online shopping is getting more and more mainstream.

So thats why I have decided to write this guide. Because it isn't that tricky really, and although there is the occasional one, getting wrong sizes (or at least finding the size isn't right for you) isn't a big problem either.

But the upside of course, especially if you require a particularly big bra size, is the choice.

Off-line you can typically expect to find a fairly small selection of probably pretty limited sizes, maybe finding an occasional G cup (if you're lucky)

This is where shopping online is best. You can easily search for your size on Google directly. Or you can find plenty of sites which specialize in big bras. (google 'big bras' and have a look at some of the great sites that are out there)

I know of a couple in particular which offer good search facilities, so that you can search for your size, and let them show you everything they have to offer.

So what else? Other than the abundance of choice? Well, as if that in itself wasn't fantastic, online shops more and more seem to be taking an interest in serving their customers.

Let me explain, although there are a few fairly clinical sites, a lot of sites actually have some resources on fitting and styles etc. It's nice to feel like the site is actually pandering to your needs.

All in all, if you know where to go, it really doesn't need to be like finding your way through a jungle, so to speak.

OK, so the point of this article is firstly to give you some tips about buying big bras online. Well in my opinion the first step is to go to the right site.

There are plenty of good sites about, I personally prefer the ones which are more geared toward the user, so find a site which looks friendly, it doesn't have to be all high tech and flashy.

Just find a site which is easy to use, because it's nice to be able to enjoy browsing, not having to search around trying to figure out what to do.

The next step, and this is an important one, is getting the size right. Most sites will happily exchange your bra for a different size, although it can be a pain waiting, so it's best to get it right first time.

This isn't as tricky as you might expect, as long as you know your true size. There is a whole load of information to make sure you get your fit just right on my website, so check the resources at the bottom of this article.

So to sumarise, when shopping for plus size bras online there are two main things to do.

Firstly - find a shop with a nice easy to use home page - if their home page isn't nice then the rest of their ordering system isn't likely to be that easy to use either.

And personally I like a nice easy shopping experience.

And secondly - make sure you can swap sizes easily enough, or better yet, buy more than one size at a time (if the company doesn't mind too much).

I hope this article will give you more confidence to go and buy your next bra online, because I'm sure that you will not regret taking the leap.
