Is That Cleavage I See?
(When It's Right To Be Sexy & How Much Is Too Much?)
Since puberty we're taught that our bosom is a focal point not just for men but women too. Anything below a B cup makes even the most confident woman a little self conscious when bikini season rolls around. But, regardless of whether you can choose to go bra-less without causing a scene, there's a right and a wrong time to draw attention to nature's gift.
Let's begin with the wrong time:
It is never appropriate to shower others with the attention of your bosom in situations in which intelligence is revered. In other words, the office is not the place for cleavage enhancing bras or severely plunging necklines. Unless you want to be considered the exception who was promoted for "other reasons", save that northern exposure for after hours with people who will respect you for your mind in the morning.
Situations in which new people are introduced to you are also extremely bad places to reveal your amazing assets. Consider the first impression you might be making. Do you really want people to remember the depth of your bra cup rather than the strength of your intelligence, or your witty quips? This goes for more than social functions, job interviews should be places that your cleavage never sees.
Meeting your fiance's (or significant other's) parents for the first time should be a definite time when your neckline rises. Considering that your SO's family is meeting you (and taking in the situation of their loved one with someone new) for the very first time, don't start off on the wrong foot. Knowing that many potential mother in laws never feel the new lady is good enough for their baby, don't give her more reasons to dislike you.
Now let's consider the right time:
The club or lounge is always a great place to show off just how amazing your bosom is! Let your neckline plunge as low as you dare! Just remember that you do attract attention and don't get annoyed if you get some unrequested attention.
Anytime that you're with your significant other, feel free to be free. You're with someone who knows you and knows your mind. Unlike strangers, they won't pre-judge you and assume that your intelligence is in opposite proportion to your bust line.
Basically, unless you work in an environment where it's ok to be extremely casual, the lowered neckline is best when you are in the company of people who know and understand you without any preconceived images. Other than that, give yourself the chance to reflect a positive image and remove the focus from your bust, and on your mind where it belongs!
