Orchids and other lovely plants that don’t need a lot of attention
Farage fails to report 5 million gift!
Perhaps I'm prudish but I've now got used to seeing women on TV showing low cleavage no matter the weather or occasion.
However I was surprised this morning to see an older plumpish MP being interviewed on Sky news with a revealing dress. Why? It's breakfast time on a chilly morning. I don't know anyone who does this. Even my daughter and dils wear a little camisole under their glamorous outfits.

How rude!
Some people can do nothing about their plumpness!
Heart conditions and many medications can cause this. We don't want to look plump, but have no control over it. 
Comments like that only make us feel worse.
I don’t care! I don’t find bosoms, whatever their shape or size, either inappropriate or offensive!

As a “plump” person, having been a not plump person, and on a myriad of drugs, I agree!
I wouldn't criticise a woman for what she wears but being a cold hearted person I am super aware of the number of bare arms on show in all weathers. Men in jackets accompanied by women with sleeveless dresses. They look lovely but I would need to wear a cardie.
The only time I have been distracted by an ample cleavage was when I was having an eye test. It was in the days when the lights were dimmed in the wee cubicle and the optician was sitting below me. I had no choice but to stare down the front of her top. Mr P would have been embarrassed.
As for the comment above about plump people, the poster needs to change her name because my children would say that her opinion was not cool.
Unfortunately taking the drug Pregabalin has made me gain a stone in weight . I’m upset enough about the gain in weight without being made to feel I should cover it up, although I do try. I’m hoping to lose it after I’ve had the necessary spinal surgery.

To be truthful I think the same as kircubbin2000. There is nothing more off putting than seeing a woman wearing a low cut top with an overspill and when she moves it is like a wobbly jelly. All I think is for god's sake buy a proper fitting bra.
If my tops are cut low because of the style, I always wear a camisole under it and I don't have an overspill as my bras fit me perfectly.
This! 😳
If you’ve got it flaunt it, but it says a lot more about your personality than your body, I guess you do it to attract attention so don’t complain if it’s the wrong kind of attention.

Wow! Ok then, I'll just crawl off into some cave and hide there until I shuffle off this mortal coil.
I think most women on tv or in the media know what gets attention very well.
They use that knowledge to influence their choice of clothing.
Very little on tv is left to chance, with perhaps the exception of Judy Finnigan's dress malfunction.
Who knows though, maybe even that was a planned mishap?

Don't take any snacks in with you. You don't want to get stuck trying to get out.
PS. I know you can take a joke. Seriously, I think this thread is offensive. I hardly ever notice what anybody is wearing or whether they have flabby arms or overspilling boobs. I do notice when people of all shapes look chic and wonder how they achieve the look (and why I never do :-( ).
You must be quite unodservant not to notice other people. Without any judgement this morning in the coffee shop a woman squeezed into the space beside us. As she turned we were presented with an Enormous rear end nearly on our table. Nothing was said but my friend gave me one of those looks.Leggings too.
I agree with Kircubbin. There seems to be a fashion for low cut dresses showing cleavage. I’m surprised sometimes to see weather girls wearing what I would term cocktail dresses to inform us of what the day holds for us , in the mornings. Of course to each their own but I think a well cut shirt style top and jeans - a casual look would be more appropriate. Another fashion on tv is wearing your hair long and curling down over your shoulders- again a look which looks more attractive on younger women.

Yes, I probably am quite unobservant. Maybe I do notice people, but it just doesn't register. The only thing I do notice is that when my partner occasionally takes me to a carvery for Sunday lunch that the majority of people seem overweight and I'm fascinated by high their plates are piled.
Having significant boobs, the one thing I took from the Trinny and Susannah's programme, was don't go for necklines that are right up just below the chin, either v neck, lower circular neck so what suits one shape doesn'tsuit another. Hence quite often the cleavage so there you are! If I could have a non surgical shrinking procedure, I'd have it in a heartbeat.
Time and place for cleavage as many other posters say.

I think plump people should cover up. No one want to see there bodies.

Haha yes, I can take a joke! I'm now consoling myself with a coffee and a KitKat, so I'll definitely be getting stuck now! 
Well I see my “rude” response was deleted, but the original comment (with poor grammar) is still there!
Rather double standards methinks!
I’ll reiterate, I do not judge ANYONE for how they look, how much they weigh nor what they wear!
Reading on I see big bottoms, as well as big bosoms, are to be frowned upon!
No hope for me then
I like big bums!
Nothing worse than seeing a scraggy little arse in gym pants with the word "juicy" emblazoned on them, in my opinion.

I was walking through a carpark this morning with a rather austere elderly gentleman when a young maiden,, or even wench, headed towards us, wearing a tight fitting jumper over her large bosom and clearly without a bra. She walked past us, bouncing up and down; he caught my eye and to my surprise we both dissolved into howls of laughter.
Linda Lusardi was in my class at school.
She was discovered standing at the local bus stop. Her attributes made her far more famous rich than my stuffy A levels, and subsequent degree. I'm still waiting to be noticed! 👙 Bosoms, bum, whatever.
Good on her, if you've got it, flaunt it!
