I read an article online that said working out naked is a great way to improve your exercise routine! How funny is that!?! But if you think about it, it would totally work! According to the article: “Naked push-ups are smart for two reasons. They create a habitual time and place for you to make push-ups happen. Second, it seems as they would force you to get in touch with your body at least once each day.”
Plus doing exercises naked would force you to look in the mirror and evaluate your body. Do you like the way you look? This will help you pinpoint what you want to work out more and what you’re happy with on your body.
So before you take a shower next, strip down and pump out some push-ups!!

Having a big bust isn’t a bad thing people! In fact, it’s something most women wish for and even resort to surgery to achieve!! So why is it so hard to dress a busty body? Well, it isn’t if you know the right tricks! It’s all about having the right bra and wearing the right shapes to flatter your figure. Here are 10 of the best dresses for your busty body type:
1. Wrap Dress: The drop waist and deep V-neck make this classic style ideal for curvy girls.
2. Strapless Dress: A built-in boned bodice is the key to finding a dress that actually stays up.
3. Mod Dress: To get that mod silhouette without losing your waistline, pick a fabric like silk, which is fluid enough to show your shape but won’t cling to your body.
4. Little Black Dress: An elastic empire waist flatters top-heavy figures, but be sure to wear a seamless bra.
5. Bubble Dress: Tailor these trendy dresses to your shape by cinching a belt at your natural waist.
6. Shirt Dress: Add a high heel for the office or a simple sandal for the beach and wear a bra that will minimize your bust.
7. Baby Doll Dress: To make this style work for your shape, pick a dress that shows just a bit of cleavage and has volume at the bottom to balance out your frame.
8. After-Beach Dress: Normally ruffles close to the chest area are a no-no, but just make sure the ruffles lay flat, creating a flattering frame for the neckline.
9. Vintage-Inspired Dress: These shapely dresses are ideal for your frame and the playful, feminine styles are easy to dress up for a night out, or down for the office.
10. T-Shirt Dress: The standard cut isn’t very flattering on shapely bustlines. Instead, look for jersey dresses in more structured designs.
