[OC] an outfit I really like :)

Please ignore my nips, I don’t have a great way to make them less obvious with such a tight top 😅

    There’s a famous demonstration of how the mind works that instructs: “Don’t picture a pink elephant!” The hitch is, what’s the first thing your brain has to do in order to follow directions? Picture a pink elephant!

    I think the other commenter’s point is that if you ask people to ignore something, that guarantees that we will notice/focus on it.

      Ahhh, okay thank you, I think somewhere along the way I’ve heard that before, but my brain absolutely did not make the connection lol.

      I’m not really bothered by people noticing/paying attention to it, I just worry about making folks uncomfortable. Fortunately no one seems to care
