The new bra makes a world of difference! I really like the first cami. The color looks really good on you. If you're self-conscious about the bra showing through, you could layer another cami underneath. A shrug or cardigan would also work well.

Thank you!

What you can't see in the photo is that the bra shows not just on the straps, but in the v-neck in the center of the cami. I suppose if I used a cardigan and buttoned just the top button, it *might* work...

Hmm...it's really not visible at all in the pics. Maybe some 2-sided tape would keep it in place? Another option might be to slightly shorten the straps on the cami.

oh honey! I think these are pretty wonderful. I love the purple one on you!

I think you probably need to pair the bright blue one with some bright accessories (bangles? earrings? I think a necklace would detract from the nice neckline on that shirt).

I like the black shirt, too. Yes, I think you could wear it with an open jacket or an unbuttoned cardi.

Does the bra feel good? It looks good! I love how these tops show off your shape!

(are you open for makeup advice? If yes, let me know!)

Fantastic post!

Thank you!

I probably *should* be open to makeup advice given the random redness all over my face, but I really hate the feel of it. Sometimes I put sunscreen with zinc oxide on my face just to tone that down! If there's something that basically feels like lotion, I'd certainly try that.

Tinted moisturizer! Cover Girl makes a really nice one. So does Physician's Formula. Tinted moisturizer plus a bit of pressed or loose powder is great for evening out your skin tone without feeling like you're wearing a mask.

Thank you!

Yeah, I think it's a "with jeans" top. :)

See the difference a bra makes? This should make you much more comfortable, too. Your old bras seemed to have given up on supporting you in the way they ought to!
