the armpit.

To measure your cup size with your bra on, measure the fullest part of your breast, keep the tape level, but not too tight.
Measure just under your bust and where the bra brand sits.
The difference between the two measurements will give you the correct cup size.

Use the shoe size chart as a guide only.
Fashion Desires recognises that it can be difficult to accurately ascertain shoe/boot sizes online and differences can occur from one brand label to another. Therefore, one option we suggest is that you could try on similar styles as seen from our range of Ellie Shoes at your local shoe retail store to determine the best shoe size for your feet.
Ellie Shoes do not come in half sizes.
When purchasing boots, select one size larger than your regular shoe size.

Measurement Instructions
Chest – Position the measuring tape comfortably around the fullest part of the chest making no extra allowances. Keep the tape under arms and around the shoulder blades at back.
Hips – Measure around your hips about 8” below your natural waist.
Waist – Determine your waist measurement at the height you normally wear your pants/trousers. Keep one finger between your body and the tape. The number of centimetres or inches equals the size.
