I really like the vibe of the dress because it's long and flowy and has an open back. My concern is that the bust area doesn't look right for my body type.
Honest feedback would be appreciated. Thanks.
EDIT: Thank you everyone, you confirmed my suspicions.
In your clinical experience, have you seen a psychotically organized client progress into depressive position functioning/psychological mindedness? If "yes," how common of an occurrence is this?
I made what was retrospectively a fatal mistake of imitating a teacher on YT who advised doing neck circle stretches to relax the neck (although they're ineffective and generally ill-advised) which resulted in immediate neurological symptoms in the left side of the face, left arm/hand and left leg/foot. Within a couple weeks, I developed intense pain in the neck and after a few months, the symptoms progressed into both arms and legs and have recently spread to the saddle area and trunk (numbness, tingling, pins and needs, burning) after 5 months of this going on.

My supine/static MRI report said this:
The craniocervical junction is normally aligned. The C1-C2 vertebrae are normally aligned without nerve exit space narrowing at this level.
C2-3: No remarkable acquired narrowing of the vertebral canal or neural foramina.
C3-4: No remarkable acquired narrowing of the vertebral canal or neural foramina. Shallow posterior annular protrusion.
C4-5: No remarkable acquired narrowing of the vertebral canal or neural foramina. Shallow posterior annular protrusion.
C5-6: Broad-based small posterior disc protrusion. Mild narrowing of vertebral canal with flattening of the ventral cord contour. No remarkable acquired neural foraminal narrowing. Anterior disc osteophyte formation.
C6-7: Tiny central disc protrusion. Minimal right neural foraminal narrowing. No remarkable acquired narrowing of the vertebral canal or left neural foramen.
C7-T1: No remarkable acquired narrowing of the vertebral canal or neural foramina.
REMARKS:
Straightening of usual cervical lordosis.
There are degenerative changes in the cervical spine, most notably involving the disc at C5-6. No severe narrowing of the vertebral canal or neural foramina. Additional findings and details are as discussed above.

The upright dynamic MRI report said this:
C1-C2 junction: Atlantodens interval is preserved. Odontoid process and atlantoaxial joint appear normal.
Clivo-axial Angle: 161°in neutral, 138° in flexion, 170° in extension (> 145 degrees normal, 135-144 degrees moderate risk, <135 degrees potentially pathologic).
Grabb-Oakes: 5.6mm in neutral, 8 mm in flexion, 3.9mm in extension (<6 mm normal, 7-8 mm moderate risk, >9 mm abnormal).
Harris Measurement: BAI = 4.3mm in neutral, 9.5mm in flexion, 6.2mm in extension (< 9 mm normal, ≥10-11mm abnormal, > 12 mm suggests craniocervical instability)
Basion-Dens Interval: BDI = 4.9mm in neutral, 5.6mm in flexion,6.9mm in extension (<10mm normal, 10-11mm abnormal, >12mm suggests craniocervical instability).
Powers Ratio: PR = 0.72 in neutral, 0.68 in flexion, 0.76 in extension (< 1 normal, > 1 abnormal).
C2-C3: No disc herniation, central canal or neural foraminal stenosis.
C3-C4: No disc herniation, central canal or neural foraminal stenosis.
C4-C5: No disc herniation, central canal or neural foraminal stenosis.
C5-C6: There is 2.2 mm central focal protrusion of the disc, effacing the anterior subarachnoid space, indenting the spinal cord. No nerve root compressions. Mild spinal canal stenosis noted. No neural foraminal stenosis.
C6-C7: There is 1.9 mm central focal protrusion of the disc, effacing the anterior subarachnoid space, indenting the spinal cord. No nerve root compressions. Mild spinal canal stenosis noted. No neural foraminal stenosis.
C7-T1: No disc herniation, central canal or neural foraminal stenosis.
REMARKS:
Abnormal clivoaxial angle and Grabb-Oakes measurement in flexion position, suggest increased risk for craniocervical instability and compression.
C5-C6 and C6-C7 disc protrusions with mild spinal canal stenosis.

What surprised me in looking at the upright imaging is the black space behind C1 (which I presume is bone and ligament). It protrudes in the direction of the spinal canal more than one would ideally want. he radiologist of the dynamic MRI calculated the CXA as borderline abnormal. What I'm confused about is how much of that space is bone and how much is ligament. Can anyone tell me what this is, what it's comprised of?
I understand the disc herniations at C5-C6 and C6-C7 aren't severe, but my symptoms are significant and because ALS, MS, peripheral neuropathy, and lumbar radiculopathy have been ruled out by brain MRI and EMG, there's no other logical conclusion to make than my spinal cord isn't reacting well to the current degree of compression/stenosis (that could have theoretically increased with the moronic neck circles).
I've read articles that doctors/surgeons are supposed to make decisions based upon symptoms and not MRI (as people with severe stenosis are often asymptomatic and others with mild stenosis can be very symptomatic). But so far, the surgeon I spoke with based his opinion on the supine imaging, alone, which he considered "normal." Has anyone else had mild stenosis but significant myelopathic symptoms?
I'd like to clarify that I'm not looking for a diagnosis, as I'm interested in a theoretical discussion.
His lip color is like a cool-toned pink with a beige base. I've literally been looking for a lipstick like this because I only like wearing realistic lip colors (which are usually a blend of both warm and cool tones).
Can anyone rec a lip product that would achieve this?
