The fitting method used by VS (you can see it on their website) will calculate a band size much too large and a cup size too small. Many of the practices commonly used to calculate bra size are held over from a time when materials used for bras either didn't stretch at all or had very little stretch. Even though it's the future now, and we've made great advances in elastic materials, a lot of the old fitting methods and calculations are still in use, resulting in a lot of women wearing really poorly fitting bras.
Additionally, when you get measured in store, they measure you over your clothes which provides even more inaccurate results.

If you've been fitted at VS, chances are you're wearing a bra that fits pretty poorly.
I'd suggest heading over to /r/ABraThatFits and using the fitting guide in the sidebar and fit yourself.
