How To Make Boobs Look Perky
UPDATE: Don’t forget to check out “panties210: The Underwear Blog“.
Yesterday. Two readers pose one question each: (1) how can you make your boobs stay perky throughout the years and (2) where can you find good bras? As I read the questions, I thought: there ought to be courses that teach womanly things such as “how to buy a good bra” or “killing cramps 101”. Then, I figure: Wait a minute. It’s New York. We have everything here. I open my internet browser and discover two such “womanly” schools: Mama Gena’s and FLOinc. But, neither offers courses on buying bras or staying perk. That’s okay. We’re women; we’ll figure it out on our own. So, let’s talk about perkiness first …
It is indeed possible to stay perky throughout the years. The secret? A good gym. Working out changes your life *AND* your boobs. I’m especially a fan of kickboxing. Now, you might ask, “how the hell will kickboxing make my boobs perky?!” Well, I can’t prove this theory, but … follow me on this one … in general, we know that fat droops & muscle tones, right? Well, boobs are kind of like the fat in front of your pecs. Thus, working out = less fat = more tone = perkier boobs. (By the way, someone posed a similar question to the Fake Doctor, and he seems to agree with this theory.)
Now, let’s talk about finding a good bra. I don’t buy *any* bra that isn’t filled with some sort of padding / contraption / reinforcement, etc. In my opinion, boobs look best when held smoothly in place. A good bra accomplishes this. Also, certain bras make your boobs look bigger, better, perkier, and more voluptuous. For example, I’m a HUGE fan of padded, push-up demi bras. Low-cut, they create a really dramatic look for your neckline, show off the curvature of your boob, and enhance your cleavage. (And, in my experience, men love them.) Demi bras are *GREAT* for women with A, B, or light C cups; I wouldn’t recommend them for heavy Cs, Ds or larger cups. Oh, and, I stay away from Victoria’s Secret. Too expensive. You can find similar bras at cute but low-cost clothing stores. I think I picked up the demi bra featured in yesterday’s post at my nearest H&M.
Call it Girly Girl, Girliehood, or Girl Power—I don’t care; I like it. In my mind, wearing a sexy bra has absolutely nothing to do with being “emotional”. It has everything to do with a belief that women are goddesses and our bodies should be adorned as such. :)

Couldn’t agree more! Although I am far from girly I seem to have a weakness for hot-pink bras, I have no idea why! And you’re right it has nothing to do with feeling vulnerable or wanting to look good for someone else. Oh, and I confess I am a sucker for VS. At least while I was over there, they dont sell the darn thing over here.
And btw the green in yesterday’s post does suit your skin colour really well! Very very cute.

Yes girly underwear is the way to go, but almost impossible to find if you’re larger than a C cup – but then I found this website: http://www.bravissimo.com. Pretty bras for all types at fairly decent (its relative here…) prices.

Damn, Stolie, you’re like the Martha Stewart of undergarments. Love it! I’m forwarding this post to some girl friends of mine. They’ll love it.
May 30th, 2006 at 2:10 pm
Absolutely agree. And as to the last post, i.e. ‘what I love about women’ – definiely the big L – Lingerie!!!

Come to Texas and I’ll feed you peeled grapes. ;)
I am still waiting for this word verification thing to actually spell something

Perky boobs. Even the phrase makes me shudder.

I’m glad you actually have proof that working out works. I recall basing my recommendation on the women I stare at when I (pretend like I) work out at the gym. Perhaps we should start a non-profit organization geared towards ettering the boobs of America. The BBA. Who’s with me?!?
Thanks for the shout out…

what defines Perky?
Also, H&M – Stolie – doesn’t compute for me… but I think I get the basic drift.
Also, I don’t purchase bras and underwear to feel vulnerable – infact it’s just the opposite – I AM woman see me Roar! (I try not to roar in public)… LOL

Thank you so much, e, for selecting the song to be stuck in my head for the next 36 hours. I have a Helen Reddy’s Greatest Hits somewhere around my house.

lol stollie trying to attract more readers by talking more about bra’s and panties? :p
seems like it’s working tho lol
May 31st, 2006 at 2:26 pm
I definitely agree that working out keeps’em nice and perky. I also have a couple of tips to add, if that’s okay. 1) Don’t go cheap on the sports bra (this is particularly the case if G-d has been generous in bestoying big boobies upon you. 2) unless you’re lying down, wear a bra. The more you go braless, the more the skin will stretch so lounging around on a Sunday with no bra would be ill-advised.

I loathe padded bras, but I do buy with an underwire or some sort of support. I just can’t let the girls go completely wild. THAT, my friend, is solid advice! Go Boobie, er…I mean Go Stolie! =)
p.s. LMAO at Jay.

So is that you in the picture this time?

Good chest exercise: light weights (I use 5lbs, but use whatever you want) and hold your arms out like your wrapping your arms around a big ball. At this point your hands should be a little closer than shoulder width apart. Pull them separate until your forearm is even with your shoulder. Repeat in sets of 20 (I do two sets at a time). Easy and good for arms and chest…

Raymond,
I could really go overboard with the oldies… LOL… NOW the song is stuck in MY head — (as opposed to previously when I posted)

Darwin: Oooooh, hot pink!!! I have panties in that color, but no bra to match just yet. My pink set is more of a “baby pink” or “pale pink”.
lala: Wow, it would be great to be larger than a C. I’m sure those are fun.
miss anon: Bird, bird, bird. Bird’s the word. :)
AWE: Finger-licking? Eating? Remember, THIS IS A PG-13, FOLKS!! :)
Howard: I like it. It’s kind of like a “Martha Stewart goes urban, brown, and lacy”.
Firefly: Lingerie rocks!!! Women, buy some this weekend. Men, buy some for your favorite woman ( … or crossdresser).
Raymond: That sounds like fun! :)
Jay: Fear the boobies not, fear them not. They cause no harm.
The Fake Doctor: I’m with you!! I love it: Bettering the Boobs of America. We could even play with the logo so that the two Os in “boobs” look like … oh, wait, scratch that … we’re keeping this blog PG-13.
E: H&M is also know as the Cheapass Urbanite’s Heaven. You can’t “shop” there, per se. But, you can usually find a couple of nice pieces of clothing (or underwear): http://www.hm.com
Raymond: Funky Brown Chick — Where Karaoke Comes To Life.
Papigiulio: Maaaaan, I thought you knew … folks come here because I give good blog like whores give good blow jobs. ;)
I only posted underwear because I didn’t want my male readers to think that I’d forgotten about all of you. (I’d posted a bunch of girlie-posts in a row before the kahunas came out.)
Jill: All the sexy folks who read this blog are free to give advice to other sexy folks. Look at that … Readers. Spreadin’ love.
Anita: Underwires are evil. I’m always afraid that one will poke through the fabric and severe a boob.
JohnJEnright: Unfortunately, no. I don’t own a full-bodied rubber suit … yet.
Meg: YOU ROCK!!!! :)
E: Little-known Stolie Trivia Fact … if the song was written and produced in the 1960s, I know all of the words to it. I love oldies!!

lala: As a 38DD, I can honestly say there is plenty of gorgeous stuff out there for bigger boobs, but you have to be willing to spend.
I get my bras at Intimacy, a lingerie chain that specializes in bra-fitting. They have sizes up to FF, I think, and are in Chicago, Atlanta and NYC. My bras cost about $50-$65 each, which is the most I’m willing to spend. But I have seen and tried on some OUTRAGEOUSLY beautiful bras that run in the $150 range. They exist, the hot bras for big racks.
Any specialty underwear shop should be able to hook you up. Victoria’s Secret is a bust for anyone over a 36D, it seems.

lol, i just realized lala is in australia. crap. sorry.

Im So Ashamed, My Boobs Are Small And I Cant Find The Right Wayy To Make Them Bigger?? I Hate Haveing To Pretend Like There Noticable But THERE NOT :( How Can I Make Them Bigger?? Orr Iss This Possible Without Useing Diffrent Kinds Of Creams And Other Stuff*
February 25th, 2008 at 8:56 am
Dude, don’t use creams. Remember, everything that you put ON your body is absorbed INTO your body. Not sure what kind of creams would make your breast swell, but I’m pretty sure — whatever is it — you’d want to be really careful to read the list of ingredients and then google the names to see what the health risks are.
February 25th, 2008 at 8:56 am
One more thing … Be Ye NOT ashamed of small boobs! :) Love your boobies.
