The Bra Mistakes That Are Ruining Your Comfort

Choosing the right bra is more than just a fashion decision—it’s essential for comfort and confidence. Unfortunately, many women unknowingly make bra mistakes that lead to discomfort and poor support throughout the day. At Everyday Intimates, we believe that a well-fitted bra can completely transform your day, so let's explore some common mistakes and how to fix them with the perfect bra from our collection.

1. Wearing the Wrong Bra Size

The most common mistake women make is wearing the wrong bra size. Whether it’s too tight, too loose, or just not the right fit, an incorrect size can lead to discomfort, underwires poking, or straps that constantly slip.

How to Fix It: Make sure to check your size regularly. If you haven’t had a fitting recently, it might be time for an update. At Everyday Intimates, we offer a variety of sizes and easy-to-follow size guides, so you can find a bra that fits perfectly. Our wire-free bras and full-coverage bras are great options for comfortable all-day wear.

2. Choosing the Wrong Style for Your Needs

Not all bras are made the same! Depending on your needs, wearing a bra with insufficient support can lead to discomfort. For example, wearing a push-up bra when you need more coverage or a sports bra that doesn’t provide enough support during workouts can lead to unnecessary discomfort.

How to Fix It: For everyday wear, opt for a comfort bra or seamless bra that offers soft support. If you need something for exercise, our high-support sports bras will provide the right level of support and minimize movement.

3. Wearing a Bra That’s Too Small

A bra that’s too small can result in spilling over the cups and underwires digging into your skin. It also can cause discomfort and poor posture.

How to Fix It: Make sure your bra cups fit properly without any spillage. If you feel squeezed or uncomfortable, it’s time to go up a size. Our comfortable full-coverage bras are designed to offer a perfect fit and great support for all bust sizes.

4. Tight Straps Digging Into Your Shoulders

Tight straps are a common problem, often caused by relying too much on the straps for support instead of the band. This leads to shoulder pain and red marks.

How to Fix It: The band of your bra should provide most of the support. Try adjusting the straps to avoid tightness. Our adjustable straps on many of our bras help distribute weight evenly for all-day comfort.

5. Wearing Worn-Out Bras

Bras lose their elasticity over time, causing discomfort and reduced support. Wearing a worn-out bra can also cause unnecessary strain on your back and shoulders.

How to Fix It: Replace your old bras with newer models to ensure you're always getting the right support. Check out our new arrivals for bras made with long-lasting materials designed to maintain shape and provide ultimate comfort.

6. Not Considering Fabric Comfort

Fabric matters! Some materials may irritate your skin or feel uncomfortable, especially if you're wearing the bra for extended hours.

How to Fix It: Opt for bras made from soft, breathable fabrics like cotton. These materials, featured in many of our bras, are gentle on the skin and keep you cool and comfortable all day.

7. Not Caring for Your Bras Properly

Improper care can stretch out the fabric and ruin the fit of your bra. If you throw your bras into the washing machine without care, you’ll likely see them lose their elasticity over time.

How to Fix It: Treat your bras gently. Wash them by hand or use a lingerie bag to protect them in the machine. Always air-dry to keep the shape and support intact. This simple care routine will help your Everyday Intimates bras last longer.
