Cupcakes and Cashmere Top and Skirt, Stuart Weitzman Sandals 

There are two "rules" women with a large bust are supposed to follow: Don't wear horizontal lines and don't wear off-the-shoulder or tube tops. I don't necessarily consider myself a rebel, but this outfit is living proof that some rules are meant to be broken. The off-the-shoulder top feels so fresh and alluring, especially paired with the matching skirt. While these pieces are made to go together, I could easily see myself wearing the top with  high-waisted shorts/pants, or the skirt with a simple white or black blouse.

Garden Party White
