to measure yourself (something i've never forgotten from years of working in retail and having to measure people in the lingerie department)
measure under the breasts - whatever that number is - add 5 - that's your band size.
now measure across the fullest part of the breast.
subtract the differece between the band size and that ends up bieng the cup size
0 to 1/2 inch AA
1/2 to 1 inch A
1 to 2 1/2 inches B
2 1/2 to 3 1/2 inches C
3 1/2 to 4 1/2 inches D
4 1/2 to 6 inches DD (E)
6 to 7 inches DDD (F)
7 to 8 inches G
and so on...
in some cases it's not always accurate, that's why it's suggested that a person try on multiple sizes...
There was an article in some magazine or newspaper recently, that stated that some very high percentage of women are wearng the wrong size bra... I'd definitely believe that based on what i've seen...
