A TikToker has shared a genius hack for those of us who need more support out of our bras.
*listens intently*
If you're working with a more generous cup size, you might know the struggle when it comes to wearing flimsier styles like bralettes.
Digital creator Darcie Ratcliff from the UK posted a video on TikTok last week, explaining her tip for women with "slightly larger" boobs who want to wear a bra with no underwire or padding.
And it's surprisingly simple.
"Right now, my boobs are... feeling a little bit droopy," she says in the video, which has over 9,000 likes.
Taking scissors, Ratcliff then cuts the straps off at the back of a "normal bra", allowing them to be tied in a halter top.
"[Now] you basically have a halter neck top so you can hoist your boobs together," she explains.
At the time, fans were quick to thank Graham for the words of wisdom.
"Thank you for the tip because I’m a DD girl and I couldn’t keep them up for the life of me," one person commented.
"I always have a hard time with strapless, thanks for the tip!" said another.

I’m a DD. I just tuck my bra straps into the band under my armpits. Works well enough.
Worst suggestion ever. Anyone with a curvy figure knows that the trick is going a band size up and cup size down. That way you're getting the traction that you need to keep things together up front without cutting off your circulation around your body. I don't mind packing the girls in a little tighter but can't stand it when a bra band or strap is cutting into me.
