Strapless Bras for the Top Heavy?
Question: I love to wear spaghetti strap shirts, but all the strapless bras I have tried do not hold up a 38C. Any suggestions for me? I am getting really frustrated!
SheFinds Says: There are two keys to a good strapless bra for fuller figures:
1) A wide “anchor” strip that runs horizontally under the bust, and 2) Boning, flexible plastic strips that run vertically along the cups. Both of which help keep the bra in place and are featured in the Goddess Strapless Lace Satin Underwire Bra , which supports sizes up to 48FF. And silicon lining, such as in the Wacoal strapless, adds extra support. This bra will not budge until you take it off. A simple bandeau-type bra may be all you need for casual days in summer tanks or tube tops. But under cocktail dresses, a Longline Underwire Bra doesn’t show and keeps everything nice and smooth from the bust down to the waist. Think of it as a bra with extra tummy control sewn on the bottom.

Full-Figured Swimsuits?
Question: "I need help finding swimsuits that can support and minimize my bust. I probably wear between a size 6-8 but my bra size is 32DDD. I want to find something cute and flattering that doesn’t look matronly. Are there any websites you can point me to?"
SheFinds Says: Swimsuit season is in full swing, which means there are plenty of places to turn for body-specific suits. We searched and found a few great options for the bustier among us.
Try the Miraclesuit: Utopia hidden underwire one-piece for support that's subtle and sexy, with a truly modern shape. Or if you're looking for a two-piece, try the Juicy Couture Halter Top. It's cute, sporty and gives great support.

Pencil Skirts?
Question: "I'm looking for great classic pencil skirts to wear for work and can't find any. Everything is flouncy and while that seems to be the style these days, I really want the classic look which is more age and position appropriate for me. Help!
SheFinds says: We love the pencil skirt. Basic blue and black are easy to find (and are an essential part of every wardrobe). If your office allows give this stand-by some sizzle and buy classic pencil skirts in contemporary chic fabrics and prints. Here are some of our favorites.
Parameter fuchsia linen butterfly pencil skirt comes in brilliant fuschia and has a sweet Sequin butterfly appliqué on waistband.
Pamela Capone's Lila design's mauve cotton knee length piped pencil skirt: Paemla Capone shatters the fine line between clean, contemporary looks and sportswear to create styles that are fun, flirty, and hard to resist.

Shrug for a Wedding?
Question: "I'm going to a wedding next month and i've a little black dress got but I don't know where i'd get a short cardi that ties at the front at the bust. I want pink, yellow or green."
SheFinds Says: A short cardi is known as a shrug - and how do we love shrugs! Here's a few that might work. The Nanette Lepore Bed Sweater
has a vintage feel, while the
Calvin Klein Jeans Sweater Shrug
 is an instant classic. Try the Liz Claiborne Cropped Knit Cardigan  for a fun and hip addition to your ensemble.

Manolo Blahnik Sample Sale?
Question: "Is there really a seasonal Manolo Blahnik Sample Sale in New York City? I have read that it does exist and is open to the general public after a certain time? If you have any information at all regarding this matter, it would be greatly appreciated."
SheFinds Says: Yes there is a Manolo sample sale, but it's super-secret and not for mere mortals such as us.
The only way you find out about it is:
a.) You buy a ton of Manolos and your favorite shopgirl tips you off
b.) You are an editor at Vogue or W
c.) Your best friend is an editor at Vogue or W.
Frankly we prefer to avoid the snobby sample sale and buy our Manolos on eBay.
