So we see all your lovely proportionate curves (there is nothing wrong with a bust!) whereas in the first outfit the bust was accentuated by the styling (I think). I don't have the eye for detail, seams etc that others have; I'm average busty, but short-waisted. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/quick-this-top-yn#post-1076349 Wed, 06 Nov 2013 06:38:36 +0000 jurocha 1076349@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Since I'm late to the thread, I might as well flat out ignore instructions and say it: I loved the plaid skirt. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/quick-this-top-yn#post-1075514 Tue, 05 Nov 2013 18:00:33 +0000 Peri 1075514@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm a busty IT and I avoid high necklines for that reason. Turtle necks hold no appeal for me. </p> <p>But...Mo has a point. We want what we don't have. My best friend never gets it when I discard something that shows the girls. To each her own! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/quick-this-top-yn#post-1075499 Tue, 05 Nov 2013 17:51:23 +0000 Tricia 1075499@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hmm, any better or should I give up on non-V necks? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/quick-this-top-yn#post-1075498 Tue, 05 Nov 2013 17:50:30 +0000 unfrumped 1075498@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Agree on the pass. Boy, turtlenecks can be a challenge! I have completely the opposite problem but don't like how the way turtlenecks fit in the upper chest on me--there is no drape at all. So I keep turning them down. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/quick-this-top-yn#post-1075460 Tue, 05 Nov 2013 17:30:19 +0000 Tricia 1075460@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks ladies!! I didn't even think about the shoulder seam. I'm going to pass. I'm at the mall though... Let me check out banana republic. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/quick-this-top-yn#post-1075441 Tue, 05 Nov 2013 17:17:49 +0000 Janet 1075441@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I generally avoid fitted, ribbed turtlenecks because I found those were the worst for making me look very chesty. I don't mind playing up the fact that I have a bust, but I'm also quite short-waisted, so fitted turtlenecks can really emphasize the bust in a not-good way.</p> <p>I did recently buy a looser, lightweight tneck at Banana Republic.

I have big boobs, no getting around that. I'm just wondering if this looks good-busty or bad-busty!</p> <p>Edit: I would probably wear a long necklace , which can help. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/quick-this-top-yn#post-1075422 Tue, 05 Nov 2013 17:06:28 +0000 Mo 1075422@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Don't hate me, but you do look quite busty in it. &nbsp;Is it ribbed? &nbsp;That can help I think . . . doesn't Macy's carry I.N.C.? &nbsp;I think those are the ones Angie wears. </p> <p></p> <p>EDIT: of course, I've only ever wanted to look bustier if anything, so I know zero about how to downplay one's bust</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/quick-this-top-yn#post-1075419 Tue, 05 Nov 2013 17:05:47 +0000 catgirl 1075419@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It looks like a good fit.&nbsp; I shy from t-necks because they emphasize bustiness - do you see this?&nbsp; I don't here, but you've got the mirror! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/quick-this-top-yn#post-1075417 Tue, 05 Nov 2013 17:04:31 +0000 Tricia 1075417@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I've been looking for a turtleneck I could wear tucked into skirts with tights for winter. I have a large bust though and turtlenecks can make me look bigger than I am. This one at macys seems to work? Buy or pass? Ignore the skirts, it's just for try-on purposes. </p>
