Aaaaand, here's me.
As you can see, there's a little room on top. At first, I thought maybe I could hide the fact that I don't quite... uh... fill it out. You know, save $50 on tailoring...
But two pairs of rolled up socks were, sadly, lacking. Four pairs? (That's EIGHT socks, people. Eight.)
But even I could not show up at a wedding looking like... Well, I'll just show you.
So, it's off to the tailor I go. "Please make my tiny chest work in this dress that fits perfectly everywhere else. Thank you." Ah, the humbling experience that is putting on a dress.

Go to Valentine’s Bridal – http://valentinesbridal.com/
She does a great job with alterations. (And the fact that I got my wedding dress and a bridesmaid dress there isn’t biased at all)

Oh, Bridesmaid dresses. How glad I am to be done with that business (even though the dress that my BF picked was quite pretty). Apparently they’re cut on the assumption that your 29-31″ waist might come with a 40DDD cup above, and god forbid they fail to allow for that. I felt like a mutant when I first tried mine on. Especially since ours were floor-length, and I guess they were hedging their bets on a 6’7″ bridesmaid. I could have made another piece of clothing with the fabric that got cut off!

Speaking of me, how do you like the color?

Hahaha, I laugh at women who seem to think the fashion world caters to women with large breasts, either. No, no. You have to be a B or C cup, those are the only sizes that ever get any mercy from the fashion industry.
Just trying to get some truth out there, that’s all
The tailor will make you look great though! -
I bet if you were to ask the model to turn around, you’d see a large row of clothes pins holding that top close to her. No photographer would head out on a shoot without a box of them handy to make the clothes always seem to fit perfectly

You know, Sonja, you could always use those weird chicken cutlet-looking things that some women stuff in their bras. Or, you could use actual chicken cutlets! There might be a gross factor, though. Hmm. Either way, you look really great in the dress.

hahaha… sounds like me. Understood. And now your facebook photo is hilarious and wonderful.
