How to Pick an A Cup Bra

How to Pick an A Cup Bra



Having small breasts is cause to rejoice. You will never have back pain because of your breasts, sleeveless clothing looks fabulous on you, there are no stretch marks, sagging will be kept to a minimum and you can always buy a padded bra. Both breast reduction or augmentation is painful and costly. Small breasted sisters celebrate and happily purchase the ideal A cup bra, because there's always 2 sides to every story.









Step
1



Calculate your bra size to make sure you are an A cup. Measure your chest at the fullest point and underneath your breasts around your rib cage. Add 5 to the rib cage measurement. If it is the same as the breast measurement you wear an A cup.




Step
2



Try on bras in a balcony and half cup style. These have construction that lifts without being a push-up and will give you a curvy shape.




Step
3



Choose bras in smooth finishes without seaming. The seaming adds support you don't need and ruins the curvy shape of your bust line.




Step
4



Look for bras with padding at the sides, not just underneath. Side padding creates fullness and realistic cleavage. Gel or water bras can also have a realistic feel.




Step
5



Ensure that the bra fits snugly around your rib cage so you don't have any unsightly ridding up. Move around and make sure the bra does not come up in the back.







Tips & Warnings









Put a shirt on over the bra in the dressing room to make sure it looks good with clothes.








Try on bras in the size smaller and larger than your measurement because bra manufacturers are not consistent.








Avoid bras with a square cut, these push your breasts out losing your womanly shape.

How to Pick a Jeweler

How to Pick a Jeweler



Picking the right jeweler is an important part of the buying process and can be the difference between a treasured experience and an uncomfortable one. Whether it is a repair, resize or a purchase, the right jeweler will help you avoid the pitfalls and horror stories that can befall your prized possessions.









Step
1



Look on the Jewelers of America website (see resources) and get a list of all the certified and accredited jewelers in your area. All the jewelers listed abide by certain standards of ethics and professional conduct to protect the industry and you as the consumer.




Step
2



Phone around or check the websites for these jewelers to compare prices or products and length of repairs. Ask what type of guarantee or customer satisfaction that they offer. Aftercare and service is just as important as the initial purchase in caring for your jewelry.




Step
3



Check that maintenance or cleanings occur on site and not sent to an external repairer. Independent jewelers will often have an on-site professional, unlike chain stores, but they can also be more expensive. Whether to use an independent or a chain will depend on your needs and budget.




Step
4



Ask family and friends for recommendations or places and individuals where they have had a good experience. A jeweler can look good on paper but there are never any guarantees as to the level of craftsmanship or the efficiency of any particular person.




Step
5



Settle on the jeweler that you feel most comfortable with and that you feel you can trust. Choosing jewelry or caring for your existing pieces is a very personal and important process, so you should never feel rushed or pressured and your chosen jeweler should be able to give information and expert recommendations whatever your requirements.

Step
2



Choose a messenger bag if to draw attention away from your upper body. Since messenger bags sit at your hips and lower waist, you can draw attention away from large arms, an extra-large bust or even a large midsection.




Step
3



Choose a bag that tucks under your arm if you have large hips. Any bag that sits just above your natural waist will draw attention upward.




Step
4



Pick an oversized bag to add bulk. If you're super-tall and skinny, an oversized bag is the perfect match. Avoid these bags if you're overweight or plus size.




Step
5



Pick a hobo bag if you have a large midsection or large hips. Medium size hobo bags are your best option for balancing out a fuller figure, and are one of the most versatile handbags available.




Step
6



Choose a miniature bag if you're petite. If you have a smaller frame or are shorter than most women, pick a bag that complements your features. Avoid oversized bags that can make you look childish, and reach for smaller and medium-sized bags that won't look out of place.







Tips & Warnings









Stay ahead of the trends with one or two in-season pieces to balance out your wardrobe.








Don't be afraid to invest in a designer handbag if you've found the perfect match!








Don't forget, you can always reach for a clutch if you don't know what to complement your outfit with.

How to pick a handbag for you

How to pick a handbag for you

Things You'll Need:





a color in mind



a list of what you carry in your purse



an open mind









Step
1



Figure out what you carry in your purse, is it a lot or just a few things? What colors do you wear 3 or 4 times a week? What color bag would compliment your wardrobe?




Step
2



COLOR:
As a rule of thumb, if you are known for wearing crazy colors or a lot of different textures at once you should consider sticking with a neutral solid color bag to keep the attention on the outfit.
NOW if you are a girl who enjoys wearing the ever-slimming black or brown outfits, you keep your wardrobe pretty "classic", then you should really consider buying a handbag that throws in a spark of color. Consider buying a red, yellow, or blue bag that will compliment most everything in your closet.




Step
3



SIZE:
If you are a tall women, no matter size, feel free to try on every bag in the store, find one that really suits you. Pay attention to how long it hangs, how many handles it has, and keep in mind comfort of the staps, take your time.
If you are a petite women like myself, we have to be a little causicous, You should really keep the size of the handbag some what small. I usually use the rule that it should hit where I am my smallest. This way when you walk it stays focused on your smallest area.




Step
4



Everyone should keep in mind that it is okay to have several different bags, one for traveling, one for work, one for going out etc. Don't get caught up in one really expensive bag, bag a couple of nice bags that can be alternated. This way you can get the most out of each outfit in your closet.







Tips & Warnings









Make sure all or you stuff fits into the purse you are looking at.








Once filled wear it around the store for a little while to see if it stays on your shoulder, feels comfortable, and keeep glancing in the mirror to see if it is the right look for you.








DON'T be afraid of color








DON'T be closed-minded...really look at each bag and try them on, you might be surprised what you will find!

How to Pick a Gold Ring

How to Pick a Gold Ring



Rings are adornments that can signify relationships, such as with engagement or wedding rings. Rings can also represent special occasions, such as birthdays or anniversaries. Whether a ring is for a celebrated event or just to be worn as a wardrobe accessory, gold is the most durable and versatile metal.







Select the Right Kind of Gold Ring




Step
1



Check inside the ring for markings identifying the karat weight. Pure gold is 24k and must have an alloy added to make it hard enough to form and retain the shape of rings.




Step
2



Look for an 18k gold ring for one that is 75-percent gold. While 18k used to be considered too soft for rings, especially for men, modern alloys are engineered to be harder than in the past. Most 18k gold rings will hold up well unless you subject them to abrasive work conditions.




Step
3



Pick the higher karat ratings for the more lustrous and rich appearance. The lower karats, such as 10k or 14k, are not as brilliant, since the amount of pure gold is much less than that of the 18k.




Step
4



Choose white gold for a substantially harder ring than a gold ring. White gold is a combination of gold alloyed with nickel and palladium. It is made in a variety of karat measurements, including 10k, 14k, 18k, 20k and 22k.




Step
5



Get the best size and shape of gold ring to complement your fashion style. A bold look is acquired when you choose a larger ring with diamonds or other precious stones. A simple gold band is a classic look for any attire.




Step
6



Take your pick of matching gold wedding-ring sets in either white or yellow gold. The older, more traditional wedding jewelry is yellow gold while white gold is more modern.




Step
7



Combine the old and the modern when you pick a two-tone mix of yellow and white gold rings.







Tips & Warnings









For the most accurate ring measurement, measure your finger at the end of the day or after you have been active for several hours. The blood pools when the arms are down for a while, which causes the fingers to enlarge. Also, the finger should be warm, since cold fingers are smaller.








Avoid getting duped with too low gold content. Since 10k is the lowest value of gold that can be legally marked as karat gold, always check inside the ring for karat identification. Some jewelry manufacturers also put an identification mark inside the ring next to the karat mark.
