How to dress your breasts


Boobies! How great they are. Male or Female, everyone loves boobs. Don't deny it. You dig em.

Today we will tackle the biggest issues I believe young woman face when it comes to breasteses. How much or how little you show, what bras are best for what activities and what should you be wearing to support these great assets.

First up, boobies come in all shapes and sizes. With all different colors and proportions! There is no 'right' breast size and shape to be. Just love them unconditionally, you might not think they're awesome, but guaranteed there will be more than one person put there that will think they are.

There are a multitude of brands out there with one purpose. Holding them up and keeping em comfy. Though some do it better than others. First you gotta find a brand or brands you like and can afford, next you need decide the type of bra. Wire, no wire, padded, silky, cotton these are all a comfort thing and it differs from girl to girl what you will want to and feel comfortable wearing. Bras come in all shapes and types! (Like breasts) And not to mention sizes. Most brands of bras come in AA, A, B, C, D and DD with other more specialised brands going all the way to a G cup! The cup size is determined by the size and width of your breast. Some breasts appear smaller but because they start further back on the chest, they look like a B but
could be a DD (Like yours truly) Others seem larger but could only be a C! I know I've had a few girls a couple sizes smaller than me have way better cleavage. But that's another story..

Another thing that determines size is the back size. This will be about the same size as your tops. If you're a size 10 top, chances are you're the same in bra size! But beware. A size 10DD is way different from a size 12 or 14DD. You should always ask the women who work are bra stores to help you get fitted into your new bra. Every single time. They're trained to do this and will know what fits you a lot better than you might. And if you think I'm wrong, look at the statistics. 70% of woman are wearing the wrong size bra!

Now lets get into the types of bras. Let the fun begin!

The T shirt Bra

This bra can be worn under anything. Some even come with detachable straps for strapless dresses and tops! They're designed to give you a smooth shape and are pretty much the comfiest type you can get. Supportive, and make you look good. This is the every day bra. They can come in a range of funky colors but tend to be a little bland looking on their own. Not something to wear to a sexy hotel sleepover, but good to pack for the morning after. They can have straps, detachable straps, no straps, be for wearing with looooooow necked dresses, backless, and they will be seamless.
You'll be wearing this the most so don't be afraid to pick up a bunch.

Sports Bra

Sports bras are exactly that. For sports. You should wash them after you wear them every time and you don't need to be fitted for them. They give maximum support so you're able to jog, run, skydive in complete comfort. If you're a gym goer or a morning run type. Grab a couple, not the cheap and nasty ones though. You need maximum support or you could really hurt yourself. Make sure you ask the shop assistants whats the best one for your sport of choice vs your breast size. When running, breasts can bounce from 7cm to over 20cm!!! Get the one that keeps you safe. Other wise you could have some not so nice problems in the future.

Push-Up Bra

This bra gets a little naughtier, though still in the style of the T-shirt, most Push-up Bras will leave you with a smooth finish so you can wear them under a t-shirt or cute top without them jumping out and shouting "LOOK HOW KINKY I AM!!!" Most Push-Ups will increase your bra size to about 1 or 2 sizes bigger than you actually are. And you can always buy the good ol 'chicken-fillet' inserts to pump it up some more. This can be an everyday bra, but remember to let your boobies relax once and a while. They can leave marks and bruise your precious breasts if you wear them too much. Make sure you get fitted properly for this bra so you don't 'burst' out of them. They should look real.

Lace and Silk

These bras are the ones you *would* wear to a kinky night in. They say "come get me" and leave men wanting more. They usually come in
sets with Undies and are a little dearer than your T shirt or Push-Up. But boy they are worth it. These are not for everyday. But more a special occasion bra. They are made to be seen. And wouldn't it be a shame to keep them hidden under clothing?

Extras!

These days, bra shops are full of fun things for you to wear with or in or on your bras. You can buy 'chicken-fillets' for a quickie breast implant or clear straps to wear with tank tops or lacey straps! You can buy lovely smelling drawer cushions, delicate's bags, and other naughty novelties. Shops like Bras n things or the Intimates Store are great for this sort of stuff. Now days you can even go to stores like Morrisey or Lonsdale and buy some comfy Sports or T shirt Bras! I know PeterAlexander has some cute lacy ribbon-ey lingerie sets out that are just beautiful..


BRA CARE
  • Wash your bras in a 'delicate's bag'. They'll keep their shape longer and wont get tangled with the rest of your washing.
  • Don't wear the same bra 2 days in a row. The foam and fabric needs to rest in order to stay firm and you don't want to stretch the straps, other wise the whole bra becomes useless.
  • You can buy little scented cushions of potpourri or soap to keep in your knicker drawer it'll keep your undies fresh smelling and stop moths from getting to them.
  • Try not to wear bras to bed. I know it happens sometimes, but do try. You need to let the bra and your breasts rest. The bra will stretch and your boobies can bruise, leaving you with painful indents under your breasts and armpits. Not a good look..
When dressing your boobs sometimes you wanna show some off. But, how much is too much?

You should show a maximum of a third of your breasts and not let them 'burst' out the neck of your top. They should sit comfortably and not look squished or forced. SQUASHED IS NOT ATTRACTIVE!!! They need to look natural. Even if you have fake ones! You don't want them pushed up around your throat... They're there to add to your look. Not *be* your look. You don't want to be that 'big ol pair of titties' that walks around town do you? No. Keep it classy. Dress em with pretty necklaces and broaches on your tops. Wear nice neck lines and don't you dare store things in your cleavage. (I know some of you do it) Bras are for boobs and boobs
only. Not phones, pens or money.

IMPORTANT! You get what you pay for. A good bra these days goes for about $50 or more. So look after them. They're not cheap.

Remember to always wear something you're comfortable with, you don't want to spend all your money on a bright red velor push up and never wear it. Make sure its you, as you'll be the one who sees it the most.
