You remind me of a beautiful young lady in my Optimization Methods class in Fall 1989. She was very good liking - like you. Her name was Yola... a name like that sticks out and you don't forget it - like the rest of her.
I was very good at this class... I was a 26-year-old PhD student and I went into the final expecting to do well on it and get an A in the class; indeed, I loved the class.
However, the morning of the final in December, that beautiful young lady Yola sat in front of me and slightly to the right. She was well-built - like you - and she was in the act of taking off her sweater. Arms crossed and raising that sweater up until just below her breasts, she stopped to ask the professor a question. "Dr. Kaufman,?"
I heard nothing else after "Dr. Kaufman" because I was mesmerized by my view of her.
I could not think straight in that final and I only got a B in the course.
In a way, that was "the last straw" because here I was in graduate school going for a PhD and I was always getting Bs in the electrical engineering grad courses! That pissed me off. In Spring 1990, I took the sequel class, Optimal Control, and got an A. Fortunately, Yola was NOT in that class.
The reason I bring up this story is that you'll dress for success alright. Every straight male in your class is not going to think straight seeing you in class and is going to screw up too - just like I did. So, you'll be at the top of the curve because you'll be immune to your gorgeousness.
I dress like a bum 🤣 but I like starting each day out with calm in the beginning. Also, I have a pretty strict breakfast. I like to eat eggs in the morning with 16oz of water. I notice that I feel way better when I have water, protein & essential micro-nutrients early in the day.
I start with a very tough Hard Yoga class that leaves me sweating, exhausted etc. Then maybe to Starbucks, and then on to Americas Tire. and then back to home to work.

Wow you sound like you'd be exhausted before you even start working
Dressing for success is only part of the picture. Take for instance, if I am being trained by someone, I am there to learn from what they know, not how they look.
Less dramatically, but I'd like to take a moment to thank you for acknowledging that the week starts on Monday. An appalling number of people still seem to be using the Julian calendar.
I agree with dressing well. But also the little things like waking up on time and making the bed. Makes for a great start to set expectations for the week
