Ladies, Know Your Proper Bra Size

Believe it or not, nine out of ten women reading this right now are wearing the wrong bra size.
Women don't realise that for all the time, money and effort we put into making the most of our looks, the single most effective way to transform your silhouette in one shot is to wear the right size and shape bra. It will instantly give you better posture and a slimmer, more youthful look.
So why do so many women still get it wrong?
The key reason is that most women do not know their correct size. Ninety percent of women who walk into my store wear the wrong size -- it is almost like an heirloom passed from generation to generation.
Most girls think they are a 34B
Once a girl starts wearing lingerie, she automatically thinks she is a 34B -- the most commonly sold size in India and the size that most women think that they are for their entire life. This couldn't be further from the truth as women's bra sizes alter dramatically from teenage years to motherhood through weight gain and weight loss, metabolism and hormonal changes.
They also don't understand how the size is made up of two measurements, a back and cup measurement.
The back size (32, 34, 36) and the cup size (A, B, C, D) are both required to work out your true bra size but you could have a very small back with a large cup size or a large body frame with a small cup and the size must reflect that. There are no generic sizes and one size definitely does not fit all.
Symptoms of ill-fitting lingerie
# Back rising -- If the back straps of the bra are rising, then the band of the bra is too big for you.
# Double busting -- If your bra is creating double busts, then the problem is that the cup is too small.
# Red marks on shoulders - This means that the straps are too tight. If you can adjust them then try to loosen them; if you can't, the bra is too small.
# Underwire sitting away from the chest -- If the wire is sitting away from your chest, the bra is too small.
Different types of bras
# The underwired bra -- This has a supporting wire built into the underside of the cups.
# Non-wired bra -- A regular bra without wiresm which gives less support than an underwired.
# Padded plunge bra -- A padded bra that will bring your breasts together, thereby creating cleavage
# Padded balconette bra -- It is also called a half-cup and lifts your breasts to make them look higher.
# T-shirt bra -- A smooth, seamless bra that can be worn under tight, fitted clothing.
# Strapless bra -- Can be worn with strapless outfits, like tube tops.
# Multiway bra -- Can be worn in five ways, including strapless, halter-neck, racer-back, one-shouldered and regular.
Why it's important
You may wonder why a flimsy piece of undergarment can influence the appearance of your outerwear and affect your comfort levels dramatically.
It is because bras are like a feat of engineering. Unlike most pieces of clothing, a good bra made by a premium manufacturer will require 25 to 30 components, which come together in precision to build the perfect support. And wearing the wrong size may damage your breasts, causing them to sag or lose their shape.
In conclusion
Don't compromise on that one piece of clothing that you think that no one will ever see. The reality is that everyone will see the effect of it and only if your lingerie works will the rest of your clothing serve to enhance your appearance.
And if you can't get into a store, try getting your size online.

Hence we bring you some good pointers of the do's and don'ts on first date that will help you put your most attractive foot forward.
First Date Dos & Don’ts
Do’s
* Choose a place that you and your date are comfortable and familiar. This will save you from unnecessary exaggeration.
* Give a confirmation call before leaving to make sure that everything is, as scheduled. Let your date know the approximate time when you will be reaching, say half an hour or something. Tell him/her that you are looking forward to meet up.
* Being on time will show you value your date's time and take him/her seriously.
* Greet your date with smile and make a proper eye contact.
* Make them feel comfortable as it will also help you to stay calm.
* Give genuine compliments but don’t compliment below the neck as no woman wants to know how you have checked her nether regions.
* Show interest in them. Start a decent conversation and get to know their interests, likes and dislikes. It will help when you plan your second date.
* Laugh at their jokes, keep the atmosphere lively and enjoyable. Take her as a new friend you have just met.
* Make sure that you are listening too along with meaningful inputs into conversations to keep it going. Keep filler questions to ask as it would avoid awkwardness.
* Be confident. Don't stutter or stammer while talking and try to maintain eye contact. Smile often during the conversation. Keep yourself relaxed yet peppy and enjoy the time spent together.
* Most importantly- Be yourself and natural. Don’t loose on your vulnerabilities and insecurities on the first date.
* Be safe on your first date. Keep a phone with you and let one of your friends know about your whereabouts and your returning time.
Don’ts
* Throwing tantrums of I-don’t-care-a-damn attitude or I-know-better-than-you as it can be the biggest turnoff for your new acquaintance. Confidence is appealing but audaciousness isn’t.
* The concept of arriving fashionably late does not apply on your first date. It shows you are not dependable at all and definitely not worth dating.
* Don’t try to drill them for every detail of their life as it portrays you as nosey person who is more interested in your past.
* It is very rude to talk on phone on a date or keep meddling with it as it shows that you are not interested or getting bored. If it is an urgent call, keep it short and tell them that you are busy and will get back to them later.
* Do not even try to be someone you are not just to make that person fall in love with you. If you do, you will be expected to keep up that standard for the rest of your life.
* Of all the things, you wouldn't want to pass out and embarrass your date. Worse, misbehave with the girl in case you lose your senses after drink.
* You wouldn't want your date to think you are too aggressive or even desperate. There is a difference between harmless flirting and obvious advances.
* Lastly don’t forget to thank the other person for the wonderful day you had with them.

* It is very rude to talk on phone on a date or keep meddling with it as it shows that you are not interested or getting bored. If it is an urgent call, keep it short and tell them that you are busy and will get back to them later.
* Do not even try to be someone you are not just to make that person fall in love with you. If you do, you will be expected to keep up that standard for the rest of your life.
* Of all the things, you wouldn't want to pass out and embarrass your date. Worse, misbehave with the girl in case you lose your senses after drink.
* You wouldn't want your date to think you are too aggressive or even desperate. There is a difference between harmless flirting and obvious advances.
* Lastly don’t forget to thank the other person for the wonderful day you had with them.

A savory loaf makes an excellent addition to any picnic or get together at home. Sliced and toasted bread is great for breakfast or to serve as colorful appetizers like finger food topped with Tapenade or cream cheese. With green onions, Bacon, Cheddar and chilli flakes added, it gives little zest to the bread and makes it festive as well.

Liquid ingredients:
1 cup Buttermilk, 1/2 cup water, 2 large eggs. Beat these two and keep aside.
To top:
1 tbsp Bacon bits to sprinkle on top of the batter.

2. Mix all the dry ingredients, add butter-onion-Bacon to this, mix well. Add liquid ingredients, mix well again until you don't see any white flour. You can use the lowest speed beater to mix in the stand mixer as well.
3.Scrape the thick batter to loaf pan, tap it gently to release the air and sprinkle 1 tbsp reserved bacon bits on top of the batter. Put it in the oven.
4. Bake for 50 to 60 mins or until the cake tester inserted in the middle comes out clean. Take out of the oven, let it cool in the pan for 6-7 mins and then invert it on the rack to cool.

Your red blushed face clearly indicates that you have already got a green signal from your beloved and have planned to go for the first date. Though a little nervous as you seem, yet you want to leave a good impression on him/ her to open the doors for further meetings. It has definitely become a matter of reputation and you must be wondering of some Jeannie on the day to make it right for you. Well, we are not supplying Jeannie here (we want them too) but we will help you in sweeping your lady love of her off her feet or leave the right impression on his heart, by following some simple dating guidelines that will keep you in the good books of your date. So keep your fingers crossed for the best and have a look at these guidelines given below for the perfect first date.
First Date Advice
* Keep in mind that the rules of the road have changed altogether. You can’t impress your beloved by being extra sweet as it will seem like a mask you are wearing. Be natural, and most importantly, be what you are but with etiquettes.
* Speak your mind out and honestly tell your date what kind of a relation you are looking forward to- a fun or a serious relationship. You will be appreciated for the same and there will be no room for wrong ideas or misunderstandings between you.
* Decide how much you are willing to say about yourself. Maintain a balance between being too cold and too revealing.
* Arranging your first date is very crucial. You owe a responsibility and it is up to you to make sure that your date feels comfortable. It shows that you are dependable and responsible.
* Just take it slow and don't rush into things that you might end up regretting later. Respect the other person's privacy and avoid things that might make him/her feel forced or uncomfortable.
* Do not forget to take some small gift like flowers, chocolates, etc. It shows that you genuinely value the time you spend with the other person. It will open avenues for further dates with that person.
* Look your best on the first date but don’t overdo it as it will only end up making you a street clown. Try wearing up something that will give you a million bucks confidence or choose a dress that you have been overpowered with compliments before. Don’t be over glossy.
* Escorting the lady isn’t the same as it used to be yet a little courtesy is still alive. It will spark your magnetism and ability to protect and nurture. Don’t try hard to impress, just be a good guy who knows the way to treat a lady.
* Show your kind gesture by paying for the date and it implies to girls as well. This will depict that you (girls) don’t want to feel obligated to him in any shape or form.
* Toss out a genuine compliment to the lady. It can be anything between her outfit to the smile but don’t compliment below the neck as no woman wants to know how you have checked her nether regions.
* Lastly thank the other person for the wonderful evening and the time spent.
