Fed up of hating my boobs

I have always felt i have an awkward figure. I am petite (5ft) and reasonably slim, but I have F cup boobs that just don't feel like they fit with my general frame.
They don't make me feel curvy and attractive- quite he opposite, I find that lots of clothes make them appear frumpy and matronly, and make me look bigger in general than I actually am.

They have gone up and down in size over the course of two pregnancies, and I have always felt my best when my boobs have been smaller, and more in keeping with my general size.

At the moment they are big, mainly due to the contraception that I'm using. I find it so difficult to decide what to wear- nothing seems to sit right or look classy, and they just feel cumbersome. I don't want to hate them- they are decent boobs, and I'm sure one day I will regret not making the most of my figure!!

Any advice? Thanks for listening!

Empathizing with you for all the fashion reasons. However DH likes them (and I like him). But reduction surgery will be my only investment if I am widowed young enough to care. From a 32F to a 32B I think.

Same! My husband thinks I'm crazy 😂

Husbands don't have to dress them; they just want to fondle them!

Hmm I have 34G boobs which are annoying, I'm on a diet & have lost weight all over except on my chest.

I tried on a neon yellow top that I really liked with jeans in River Island but it really emphasised by chest so I had to buy khaki instead.

Tips: go for v necks or scoop necked tops as these are flattering. If you want high neck tops get boat neck.
Buttoned up shirts are not a good idea unless the buttons really don't gape.
For swimwear get halterneck bra size underwire bikini tops I recommend Figleaves.

Always wear a decent well fitted bra obviously.

Try to avoid draped tops as they hang off your boobs & make you look fat.
