Making the most of a small chest, the most important detail you want to address first is your choice of bra.

There are so many sexy bras on the market today that help out every body. Consider buying an underwire padded bra, but choose one of the smoother styled ones, rather than one with an excess amount of lace, or seams across the cups, which have a tendency to make ripples and bunches. You want to flatter, not bring negative attention to your chest. The smooth cupped bras are available in virtually every color you can imagine. One thing I particularly like about the padded bras, is if you get chilly, nobody but you knows that, if you get what I mean!

Once you have the perfect bra to enhance your bustline, your choice of top is a little more open. I would suggest staying away from loose fitting bulky tops, and go with something a little more form fitting - not skin tight, but flattering to your shape. The peasant styled blouses that have a bit of an empire cut to them are a nice choice, and come in such a lovely array of flattering fabrics. Or perhaps a nice fitted cropped button up cotton blouse. These blouses are readily available now with a touch of spandex in them for a comfy fit.
