Please help me find tops

I literrally have only like 4 tops that I can use to go out during the day (like run errands, movies, informal dinner etc) It is soo hard to find something for my body that look good and stylish. I have big boobs (38DDD) and my arms are fat so I like to hide or at least not wear those awful half sleeves tops that just make them look 10 times worse. I got a tummy so I cant wore super tight clothes nor too loose because I can look pregnant.. I usually I am size 10-12 but with all my problem areas I cant find anything. I need help fast please!!!

Have you tried Bravissimo? it's an online store for big chested girls. They sell clothing in different boob sizes.

You could also try getting larger sizes that fit you in the boobs and then have them tailored to fit you elsewhere. I've done that with button down shirts. Lane Bryant has decent shirts that could fit you in the chest and if its too big elsewhere, you could get them altered.

Also try Kohls, NY&Co, Old Navy, Macy's (Inc/American Rag/Style & CO are brands that fit me, i'm similar proportion to you but probably a bit bigger)

Stores like Kiyonna and Torrid will have larger sizes as well that you can try getting tailored (i think the smallest they go is a 14)

Re: Please help me find tops

I've gotten a lot of looser, flowy tops (and I often go sleeveless style and wear something over) from H&M and TJ Maxx.

I also agree with checking out stores like Kohl's & Macy's.

As I am getting older now, I am trying to not gravitate as much to "junior style" clothing but still want to avoid anything "granny".

It can be tough but there's decent stuff out there.

try lands end - they have a line now that's cut a bit slimmer so it's NOT tight by any means, but it has some defined shape and doesn't look frumpy -

I personally like the 3/4 sleeve, but you could also go for something in a very lightweight material to wear over a tank to cover your arms.

Joe fresh! They sell this line at jc penney if you arent near a store. I had good luck with tops there. I just went for the first time last week and i bought 12 shirts! Chat Icon I too only had 3-4 shirts I can wear in my wardrobe and they are soooo reasonably priced.
