So it's getting to be springtime (despite last night's ice and snow festivities) and I'm not one of those chicks who buy a whole new wardrobe every season, but I do like to add a few new pieces here and there. Freshen things up.
The problem is, the babydoll top trend is stubbornly sticking around for yet another season.
Beyond the "looking pregnant" problem with this clothing item, there is also the problem of boobage. I have it. And I don't particularly want to look like Beth Chapman. Most babydoll tops accentuate that area, and even though many of them also have a modesty panel in the "v" neckline...it is not modest enough for certain cup sizes. I'm not trying to be Chesty LaRue here. Not only do I not need to draw attention to the area, but I don't need to have ridiculous half-boob cleavage, either. And the scoopneck ones just don't usually have enough fabric between the empire waist (that obviously has to go under the breasts) and the neckline.
Beyond the babydoll top, there seem to be a lot of shapeless tunics and shift things that make a size-0 model look like a heifer.
I don't like ruching at the neckline, I don't like belting immediately below the bust...looks like plain v-neck tees for me this year.
