How To Wear A Push-Up Bra: Tips and Tricks
Ready to revamp your lingerie look this holiday season? As you’re preparing to celebrate the festive period with parties and dinners, you may be thinking about what to wear. Why not add a little pizzazz to your event with a brand new piece of lingerie.
If you’ve never worn a push-up bra, you may be on the lookout for some advice along the way. Pulling off this sultry and cool look is easier than you think.
Here are just some of the things you should keep in mind when you give it a go:
Make sure you have the right size
First things first, you need to make sure that you have the right bra size. Push-up bras are highly structured and offer you a great deal of support. However, if your band or cup size is off, you will have a real problem here. You will find that you’re not comfortable and you don’t get the effect you’ve been looking for. If it’s been more than a few months since you last got measured, head to the store and book yourself an appointment.
Choose a bra that suits you
Think all push-up bras are the same? Think again. There are many different styles out there, which means that it pays to look around and see what suits you. Don’t just settle for the first bra that you see. Take a little time to hunt for the one that will give you everything that you need. You should also consider the type of dress or, indeed, outfit that you plan to wear. Getting a black number is usually a safe bet, but you may also want to consider going for something a little more subtle like a nude push-up bra. The choice is yours.

Try it on in front of a mirror
When you think you’ve found the perfect bra, there’s one more thing that you need to do. Before you head to the counter and buy it, it’s time to try it on in front of a mirror. Doing so will help you see how well the bra fits and find out whether it gives you the lift that you need. Think of this as something of a trial run here. You should look at the bra from every angle and determine whether it’s doing its job. If you can see any problems or issues, now is the time to do something about them. The sooner you do, the better.
Use the scooping technique
Are your breasts not sitting well in the cups? There’s a small and simple trick that you can try, which will solve that very problem. Lean forward and scoop each breast upward. It might sound odd but this small tip should help you along the way. Sometimes, when you first put on a bra, your boobs don’t land in the right position. That could mean that the fit looks awkward and a little off. Don’t let that problem stand in your way. By moving things around a little, you can make sure that you get the perfect fit for you.
Adjust to suit your body shape
Finally, you will need to adjust the bra. As we’ve already covered, these are well-structured pieces of lingerie. That means that they have a lot of material with which you will need to contend and work. You should adjust the straps to ensure that the whole bra fits you as well as possible. Should you have any problem with this particular step, it could be worth getting some help and advice from a fitter. They can give you all the guidance you need.
Now that you’ve got all the advice a woman could need, what’s holding you back? Why not go ahead and get yourself a brand new push-up bra today? As the festive time of year draws ever closer, you might want something that gives you that extra oomph. A beautiful new piece of lingerie is certainly the answer. Happy shopping!
