How To Go Backless & Low Cut w/Support!
Did You Know? “Adult women of all ages are encouraged to perform breast self-exams at least once a month… ‘Forty percent of diagnosed breast cancers are detected by women who feel a lump, so establishing a regular breast self-exam is very important.’ If you find a lump, schedule an appointment with your doctor, but don’t panic — 8 out of 10 lumps are not cancerous.” (via)
Ting tangs are the subject for today! Wonderful ting tangs! (But are they actually wonderful? Thoughts?)
Whether or not you’re in denial, backless & low cut clothing have been all the rage for a few YEARS now. I denied it for a long time, because I don’t have the option of going free willey w my chesties, but the envy has taken over!
I tried everything, over a period of years, to go backless. It all started in Dubai with a beautiful backless gown I had to wear to a wedding. I went hunting & found those silicone bras that stick to the front of your chest & don’t wrap around. These are a decent option, you can find them: here. BUT, they aren’t the best because they pull your tits down. SoOoO if you’re ok sagging a little, they’ll work in a pinch, but not ideal. Although I do keep them handy.
I’ve also transitioned to these Gel Petals from Target. You’d be surprised how well these babies work, they really lift! Stick on the bottom, pull up, stick to the top. You’ll get it when you try it. I actually really love these, also super cheap. They’re never in stalk, so I know I’m not the only one that’s found them as a secret trick. If you do find the Gel Petals, get a few so they’re always on hand! The other nice part of these is they’ll work for any cut – backless, low cut, almost nude, whatever! I also like them because they’re pretty much summer resistant. Meaning, if you sweat, they’ll stick. Even with these little guys, sometimes – you want more…
So, the BEST OPTION that I’ve found so far is this bad boy. Shimera Deep Plunge Bra. It’s backless, low cut, affordable, and pushes your boobies into formation. You don’t feel like you’re wearing something that’s pulling down, naked, or unsupported. Bonus, this thing is $30 at Nordstrom Rack. And dare I say, it’s comfortable? I happened upon it in desperate need of something for a jumpsuit I had on. My saggy, silicone, sticky bra lost its stick. Everything happens for a reason!
I’m telling you, it’s a miracle.
And I had to share this because how the F do women wear these backless clothing styles? They can’t all have small or fake ting tangs. I was determined. And don’t think I didn’t try the Kim Kardashian duct-tape-my-tits-up “trick”. I’m calling bull shit. Unless that’s some extra special tape, let’s say the entire experience was… awkward.
Take it from me, I’ve tried them all! These little Gel Petals are way amazing, but this backless plunge is even BETTER! Don’t fear backless or low cut clothing – TRY THEM! There are tons of pretty backless & low cut styles out there, you want to be able to wear them all!
Speaking of ting tangs… have you felt yours lately? Always looking for bumps & lumps 😉
Have a great WEEK everyone, be thoughtful
