*flails*

I'm planning on getting new clothes with my next paycheck because I really need them.  In that vein, I'm being tempted by two new shirts from ModCloth but I can really only afford to get one.  The great thing is they have a fantastic return policy if it turns out I don't like how it fits but I'm not sure which one I should get.

Should I get this or this?  The blue one is catching my eye like mad (god, it's gorgeous) but I'm not sure about the top and, well, my top since I'm all Busty McBustinstein.  (What?)

The blue top, hands down. (Er, perhaps!pun unintended. XD)

Blue. Blue. Blue.

I think the blue is prettier, but...

I'm super busty myself (G cup) and I know I wouldn't be able to wear that style and have it be flattering on me. If you're a D or smaller, I think you'll be okay (I never know exactly what someone means when they say "busty", since my perceptions are a little skewed). If you're larger than that, the white one's probably going to be more flattering.

I love them both. The blue colour will suit you better I think, and I'm sure I've seen you look good in strapless dresses so.

The blue. Is it going to be too long, though?

If you can get the blue to stay up, blue. The white will just make you look like a TUBE since it will go to your furthest point (breasts!) and then... that's it. Unless you belt it, which could be pretty.

Also, if you Need Straps, you can always sew a pair on.

I'm not 100% sold on the blue one. First you need a strapless bra. Then you have to hope it doesn't look like a maternity shirt.

I would go with the blue for a couple of reasons:

1. White is always a hard color to pull off, especially if you're busty or have curves. Darker colors tend to be easier to wear and always look nicer and you never have to worry about stains as bad as white clothes.

2. The princess cut on the blue is better than the white, the way the white shirt is cut the portion of the shirt under your bust will balloon out because it's not tappered in.

3. I think the white looks more for little girls than the blue :)

Plus if you really like the shirt and can't get it to stay up, I can easily sew in some straps for you. Either that or you get a little short sleeved sweater to put on over it and that way you can wear a bra and pin it to the bra sides lol.
