So where are the right places to measure your neck, waist & hips...I am not sure if I am placing my measuring tape right...thank you for your help! :-)

I don't think it's that important where you're measuring...what's MORE important is that you're measuring in those same places every time. But If you just wanted to make sure you're in the right general vicinity:

Bust: Measure around the chest right at the nipple line, but don't pull the tape too tight.
Chest: Measure just under your bust
Waist: Measure a half-inch above your belly button or at the smallest part of your waist
Hips: Place tape measure around the biggest part of your hips
Thighs: Measure around the biggest part of each thigh
Calves: Measure around the largest part of each calf
Bicep: Measure around the largest part of each arm above the elbow
Forearm: Measure around the largest part of the arm below the elbow.
Neck - measure below the larynx with the tape sloping slightly downward to the front.
