Seems people are always wanting more.

More money. More bling. More boobs.

If big breasts are your goal, but you don’t naturally possess them and don’t want to undergo breast augmentation or can’t afford to, there are ways to give the illusion of being bustier than you really are.

Here are the top ten ways to make boobs look big:

10. Flaunt what you have

You really could just forget about big boobs for once and flaunt your small chest. Lots of women have been very successful and are considered beautiful, and they don’t have big boobs. Not everyone wants a huge bosom, but if you insist there are ways to accommodate this. Think about the bras you are wearing and the clothing. They may be detracting from what little you have and make you appear even smaller than you really are. Assess your bras and wardrobe. Discard the bras and clothing that do not flatter your chest.

9. Stand up straight

Consider your posture. If you are slumping over and not standing up straight you are not showing your breasts off to their best advantage, whether they’re small, medium or huge. Stand up straight! Shoulders back, head up.

8. Cinch your waist

Women who have hour-glass figures tend to look bigger on top because their waists are so small in comparison to their chest. They may not be that full in the bosom, but it looks that way in contrast to that Scarlet O’Hara mini waist. Wear a snazzy looking belt and emphasize your small waist which makes your boobs look bigger. Or choose clothing that nips you in, like any form-fitting dress.

7. Stuff them

Stuff Kleenex into your bra or some hose to fill out your cups. Come on! Don’t act as though you have never heard of this technique. Young girls who are flat-chested have been resorting to this tactic since the beginning of time. Word of warning: If the Kleenex or hosiery falls out of your bra, you have got some explaining to do.

6. Strategic shading

Put some body makeup on your breasts. Really! This is a Hollywood trick that is used on small-busted actresses. Use both light and dark shades of powder and some bronzer. Put the darker powder or bronzer in between your breasts in the cleavage area. Remember to blend, brushing both upward and outward. This results in a V-shape right along the natural curve of your breast. Put the lighter powder on the top portion of your breasts. Blend well so it’s not apparent what you have done. You have created an illusion of fuller breasts by using dark and light colors.

5. Choose clothing wisely

What you wear over the bra counts too. A top that is patterned or ruffled makes a woman look fuller on top. A v-neck top or dress shows off cleavage, which you will have if you are wearing the right bra. A gathered sweetheart neckline will make your breasts look larger as will a dress with a structured and form-fitting bodice.

4. Underwire

Wear a bra that has an underwire. An underwire bra holds up the breasts and makes them look perkier and perkier looks bigger.

3. Criss cross straps

Wear a bra that has straps that cross in the back because this creates more cleavage and pulls your breasts upward. This gives the illusion of bigger boobs.

2. Push and pad

The right bra can absolutely do wonders for the breasts. Push-up bras or padded bras hoist the girls up and pushes them together so that you have cleavage. Inserts are available, including gel or air inserts. Put the insert into your bra cup and this adds a cup to your size. That’s easy enough.

1. Stop trying so hard

Some women don’t have to make their boobs look big; they just are. While there are those women who consider this a blessing, some think of their big ta-ta’s as a curse. Large breasted women frequently complain of back pain. Many undergo breast reduction surgery to reduce the size of their mammoth breasts, which eliminates the back pain. For example, Queen Latifah had breast reduction surgery. So be careful what you wish for. You may be better off with a small chest.
