In the sink with warm water. I use this detergent.
Ok so I’ll be honest I bring mine into the shower (not wearing them) and clean then just with water.
But from the time I was really into bras the best way to clean them is by hand in the sink or a bucket with a gentle soap made for that purpose and then hang or lay flat to dry. There’s several on amazon here is one

Bra cleaning powder. It's specifically designed for hand washing fabrics that get smelly.

I've seen lots of recs for Soak as a no-rinse delicate wash though I've never used it.
I personally am a fan of the Forever New wash for handwashing delicate items and bras. It's super easy to use. I fill a sink with cold water, add the detergent and swish to dissolve, put in my clothes and agitate for like 30 seconds and then wait for 3-5 minutes. Then I drain the sink and rinse each piece quickly and hang dry. I find that it gets out stains really well (even old yucky ones) and doesn't leave a residue.
When steaming isn't enough and I actually need to wash delicates, I hand wash with Forever New. It's a powder that dissolves easily in water, has a nice scent, and I feel like it does a good job of cleaning (and rinses easily!). I only use a little bit at a time, so I expect the bottle will last quite a while.
Heads up- forever new bra wash is great to use. Just get a little bucket to dissolve the powder in (cool) water, and kind of dip and rub your bras in the solution. Better for your bra fabric, super gentle on sensitive skin.
I use Forever New to handwash my bras, and I like it. Haven't tried it in a machine, though.
Okay so your measurements put you around a 26F. Depending on your comfort level, you may want to try a 28E since you're more used to 34s (which is sooo much bigger than you need!). 28E is also much easier to find. You have plenty of resources online especially (eBay, Amazon, and Figleaves are all good starts and you can check the resource list on the side here), but Nordstrom will have your size as well-though probably only online.
For starters to see how you feel about your size, I suggest ordering something from Nordstrom because they have free shipping & free returns. Even if you don't keep anything, it's a good way to figure out what size is good for you.
As far as 26's go, unfortunately there aren't a lot of options. But! If you look into Tutti Rouge from other seasons (prior to A/W '14), you'll find that their 28s are actually really 26s.
I also recommend you check out listings on Bratabase which is super helpful for figuring out bra stuff, though it can be a bit overwhelming at first.
To note about bras: You want your bra to always fit you on the loosest hook when you first buy it. The reason for that is as time goes by, your band will stretch out. Buying it on the loosest hook will allow you to keep it the longest since you can tighten it as you wear it out. You'll also want to be hand washing your bras to extend the life of them. For that I use Forever New. This giant thing of it will last you literally years.
Hope that helps!
EDIT: People, it seems like some of you are not actually reading my post beyond my first sentence and then admonishing me for suggesting a 26F. If you read beyond that, you'll see that I also suggested a 28E for comfort level and the fact that it's easier to find.
I use a garment mesh bag for cotton undies/tops and hand wash all delicates including undergarments and clothing items I don't want to risk with this, it's amazing: http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B002USD5FC
I hang dry everything.
My favorite movie is Hot Rod because it's hilarious. I love to watch it and get other people to watch it. I also love to quote it and love when people understand the references.
Here's the $20 item. Here's the $5 item. I'm not dead set on either of these so feel free to choose different if I'm picked.
I'm not sure...when I did my contest I ended up giving multiple small gifts. But it was a pain in the butt because of the Add-on Item nonsense. I think my next contest I will do one item. So there's that.
