Having a big bust isn’t a bad thing people! In fact, it’s something most women wish for and even resort to surgery to achieve!! So why is it so hard to dress a busty body? Well, it isn’t if you know the right tricks! It’s all about having the right bra and wearing the right shapes to flatter your figure. Here are 10 of the best dresses for your busty body type:
1. Wrap Dress: The drop waist and deep V-neck make this classic style ideal for curvy girls.
2. Strapless Dress: A built-in boned bodice is the key to finding a dress that actually stays up.
3. Mod Dress: To get that mod silhouette without losing your waistline, pick a fabric like silk, which is fluid enough to show your shape but won’t cling to your body.
4. Little Black Dress: An elastic empire waist flatters top-heavy figures, but be sure to wear a seamless bra.
5. Bubble Dress: Tailor these trendy dresses to your shape by cinching a belt at your natural waist.
6. Shirt Dress: Add a high heel for the office or a simple sandal for the beach and wear a bra that will minimize your bust.
7. Baby Doll Dress: To make this style work for your shape, pick a dress that shows just a bit of cleavage and has volume at the bottom to balance out your frame.
8. After-Beach Dress: Normally ruffles close to the chest area are a no-no, but just make sure the ruffles lay flat, creating a flattering frame for the neckline.
9. Vintage-Inspired Dress: These shapely dresses are ideal for your frame and the playful, feminine styles are easy to dress up for a night out, or down for the office.
10. T-Shirt Dress: The standard cut isn’t very flattering on shapely bustlines. Instead, look for jersey dresses in more structured designs.

So it’s summer. Obviously you’re not gonna be wearing anymore sweaters for a while. SO! It’s time to yank out those tanks, ladies!! But beware, there are some wrong ways to wear a tank top. Just in case you’ve forgotten from last summer, let’s review:
Numero Uno! Never wear a tank top with your bra straps showing!!! I know it’s tempting to do, but DON’T! It’s soooo unattractive and just sloppy looking. Besides, there’s an easy fix to this tank top faux pas: Just layer a thinner tank top in an vibrant color underneath. This little trick will also hide your tummy area if you’re concerned about that.
Number Two! Steer clear of tanks that are too short. Just in case you haven’t noticed, we’re not doing the midriff bearing thing anymore. A tummy covering tank is much more classy and chic.
Number Three! Check your posture at the door! Slumpy shoulders will give you a slumpy, sloppy appearance. So make sure and stand up straight and hold your head high, you’ll look thinner as well!!

So you want bigger, fuller looking breasts, but for whatever reason you don’t want surgery. Join the club! Luckily, there are some tips you can use to boost your breast size without surgery! Check it out:
1. Find the Right Bra: Underwire bras thrust breasts forward and upwards. Push-up bras lift boobs and move them inward, giving one the coveted cleavage crack. Padded bras give you the more wholesome shape you are looking for. Also make sure your bra fits!
2. Wear the Right Clothes: Certain clothing styles can create the illusion of larger chest. Necklines matter when it comes to creating a more plumped look. Rely on sweetheart, scoop and high-necklines to do the trick. V-necks are one to avoid as they draw attention to the small chest. Patterns can mask a flat chest as do horizontal stripes. Black and dark colors minimize so stick to lighter-colored shirts.
3. Bronze your Breasts: (Not literally!! lol) Take the bronzer (spray tan or blush powder in a shade darker than your skin tone work too) and brush a small amount in between the breasts to form a V-shape. Outline the curve of the breast with a bit of bronzer as well. What you end up with is more roundness to the boob along with instant cleavage! The darker the color, the bigger the breast will appear, although don’t get carried away with the make-up. When in doubt, subtle is usually better.
4. Wear an Insert: Bra inserts are safe, easy to use and stay secure as they rest inside the bra to bring about a fuller top. They can be made from gel or foam. Some types can increase a cup size by 1 1/2 to 2 full sizes.
