In fact, wearing the wrong bra size can be a painful and uncomfortable experience. It could even alter your appearance! Here are three signs that your bra might be altering the way you look and how you can quickly fix these problems:

3. Your Boobs are Hiding Your Waist

Wearing a larger bra size than what you're supposed to be wearing can cause it to sag. When it does, it hides your torso, which makes your waist look bulkier than it really is.

2. Your Bra is Too Small for You, Creating Rolls

On the contrary, wearing a smaller bra size than what you're supposed to be wearing causes the bra band to dig into your back. This causes fat rolls on each side of your back, regardless of how skinny you are.

Likewise, wearing a smaller bra size means you're wearing the wrong cup size as well. When the bra cups are too small, they push your boobs around, again creating rolls of fat around them.

1. Your Bra Makes Your Clothes Look Too Tight

When you try on different shirts, and they don't seem to look good on you, more often than not, it's not the shirt – it's the bra. Wearing the right bra with a fitting shirt will make you look great.

Now that you know how your bra is making you look fat, how can you find the right bra for you? Read on below to discover how you can fix these bra woes.

3. Stop Fixating on Size

One fact of life is that you won't always be the same size as you were when you were in high school. If you wore a 36C back then, it doesn't mean you'll be a 36C forever.

Rather than focusing on what you think should fit you, get yourself measured for a size that actually fits you. It's okay to change bra sizes – it's part of life!

2. Get Properly Sized

Coming off number three, getting the correct size will do all the wonders for you. If you're wondering where you can get fitted, you'd be surprised to know that many lingerie sections at department stores offer complimentary fittings. Before buying a new set of underwear, ask to be sized! It's nothing to be ashamed of and completely normal.

1. Prepare to Make the Investment

Not all bras are made equal. You may opt for a cheaper one because you think they all serve the same purpose, but no.

Spending money on quality, well-fitting bras will always be worth the investment. They may cost you more, but when you think of it, they will last you longer than cheaply made bras.

Now that you understand the ways bras make you look fat, as well as the necessary changes you can make to fix that, it's time to get to work!

Looking good is as important as feeling good. Imagine the relief you'll feel when you finally decide to act upon that uncomfortable feeling and unflattering look brought about by your ill-fitting bra!
