The number (32, 34 etc) is the circumference around your chest in inches.
The letter (B, C etc) is the cup size. The cup size is more like a small,
medium, large kind of thing.

Ok, so it starts with training bras (obviously) then for the basics you get into A then B then C then D those are the usual sizes at the store
then you have the numbers 32, 34, 36, 38 so the sizes go from smallest to biggest: a 32, a 34, a 36, a 38, b 32, b 34, b36, b38, c 32, c34, c36, c38, d 32, d 34, d 36, d 38
Hope that helps (:

How to measure yourself and find your bra size:

1. Measure around your ribs below your breasts to get your rib size. Look on the chart below to find the number for that size.

Rib Size = Rib Number
22-23 inches= 28
24-25 inches= 30
26-27 inches= 32
28-29 inches= 34
30-31 inches= 36

2. Measure around your chest over your nipples to get your chest size. Subtract the rib number you got above from this size. Look on the chart below to find your cup letter.

Chest Size
-Rib Number = Cup Letter

-1= AAA
0= AA
1= A
2= B
3= C
4= D

Hope this helps! :)
