    I need to find somewhere I can buy shirts that will fit over a big bust. I have to dress formally in work and never have any problems finding skirts or suits to fit but dresses and shirts are tough. I have a few non- button up blouse type tops that fit but again tough to find as a lot have No sleeves at the moment, and i need sleeves as i take my jacket off a lot. Any suggestions ? I am not really keen buying on the net as the few times I have it was hit and miss for sizes

    I would have similar issues and I just don't buy shirt/blouse type tops. (Also saves a lot of ironing too!). In my view, it's better to avoid completely, rather than wearing a shirt/blouse that gapes open or is too big.

    Instead, I'd suggest looking for tops - I've attached a few ideas for tops that I would wear under suits. Click on the pictures to go to the home pages

    Purple top from M&S - just tuck into skirt

    Black lace top from M&S

    Top from Betty Jackson Black in Debenhams

    Try looking at shirts by companies that specifically cater to women who are bigger up top - Pepperberry, Urkye, Biu Biu.

    I'm quite top-heavy and am really not a big fan of button-down shirts, mostly because I need to go up to a size 14-16 in them just to close the fecking things in general - only a 12 normally! I also wouldn't be a fan of the 3rd top that dudara posted, there is a very high probability of looking pregnant in it!
