- Cuff the sleeves - 3/4 is a good length
- Pair it with something more casual underneath (a tank dress or loose tank and shorts)
- Definitely do not wear it buttoned! I always leave it unbuttoned b/c it feels less stuffy
I hope I'm making sense. I'll take a few pics later on to show you what I'm talking about.I just ordered this. It works with the $40 trade in code! I think it's an awesome deal.
I measure 30 around the bottom of my boobs and 35 around my boobs. That would be a 30 dd so i would go up to 32 d. I tried the 32 d and 32 dd in knockout and was busting out of each size. i've heard it runs small. if i go up to a 34 band do you think i should order a c or d.

Yes, if you have the chance, please post some pictures for me to get an idea. I figured I'd know how to wear it, but I clearly don't! Kind of excited I will be trying to make it work after 3 years of sitting in my closet....

My best-fitting VS bra right now is the DA demi in 34DDD on the tightest hook. I just remeasured and I am 30 under-bust and 38.5 across the bust. I'm 10 lbs. over what I normally am right now though, but I've always been between 29-30 and 37-38.5, respectively. The under-bust measurement doesn't directly correspond to band size. I've read all kinds of different things, but the most accurate I think is for smaller band sizes you add 3, for larger figures you add 5. Since I can wear both 32 and 34 bands, this makes sense to me. Cup sizing is totally crazy. There are so many different shapes and sizes of both boobs and bra cups you just have to try stuff on and see what fits. I don't think you can accurately determine cup size just by measuring.
Oooh OK, I don't feel so bad now hehe
Nope, not on sale
also, i got my biofit multiway bikini tops that yesterday. i got 2 in 34b and 1 in 34c. the 34c felt a lot more secure, but was too big for me. the 34b fit but didn't cover enough - it was more coverage than the gorgeous but i didn't think i'd be comfortable in it for extended periods of time. i am going to stick to the twist bandeau one (forever sexy, i think) because i can size up for that to 34c and it still fits me (so i get more coverage without there being gaps in the bikini).
i can see the 5-way pushup feeling more secure for you tho. for me, i think it may have something to do with it being a biofit - i always have problems with biofit cups not fitting me because they make the pushup different for different cup sizes, so i can never properly fit it bc the b cup ends up being too small (bc of too much padding) while the c cup has a gap.

The gap is pretty ridiculous.
Sorry it didn't fit right
