I have actually just found the most gorgeous shirt I've ever seen. It's vintage-style, beige with puffy sleeves and an open back.

But I can't go outside without a bra on. What else can I do??

    buy a low back bustier, or one of those bras that is convertible to be worn with low backs.

    I don't know how busty you are, but when I was thinner I used the silicone sticky bras. I've also been know to use tape. The stars to it, why not you?

    Hmmm I'll need to look into some of these ideas. I am quite large chested though so I'll need support. :blushing:

    There's only 1 real way to go about this: bra-less! Fortune favors the bold.

    I 2nd the vote for a cute bra and let it show.

    Lots of cute options for sports bras if you are uncomfortable wearing an actual bra that shows.

    you kinda have 6 options
    get a bra with a silicon clear back strap (but they look tacky)
    get a bra that kinda does up around your waist (probably the best option)
    get one of those stick on bra things without a back strap
    get nipple stickers
    if appropriate wear to the beach a put bikini on under
    give it to me as i really want a backless top :P

    Can you show us a picture as to what you maybe refering to? Would a spaghetti tank top work? .. if I had a visual I could give you more advice.

    Nah the only time I go bra-less is when I'm at home. I dont like chafed knees, LOL! I think we need a pic of the shirt though...but thats just cuz I love clothing porn.

    Convertible bra or those stickies I have seen them for DD cups but I dont know if they work.

    Why can't you go outside without a bra? They are evil contraptions anyways.
  • What size are you? I have the same issue of not being able to go without a bra because my boobs are just too big. I love the Victoria Secret link that someone put but if you are above a C cup like I am personally it won't work.

    I have done backless before and I normally just try to find a bra that matches in color and has lace or something on the back and let it show.

    Go outside without a shirt.

    best quote of the day by far.

    ummm....little word of warning on the sticky nipple covers....whatever you do, do not come home after a drink or two (or 6 or 8 or 10) and rip them off..... the words 'bloody nipples' should convey what may happen.....:sad:

    But I can't go outside without a bra on.

    Why not?

    I'm quite large and not only do I look unperky without a bra, I also get a sore back. :(

    And this is the shirt:

    Here is a DIY bra for backless shirts - it basically looks like part of the shirt because it is 3 straps running across your back instead of the typical hook/loop section:

    that's a good idea. if it goes with a little lacy bralette or some type of layer. I can't go out without a bra either my girls need to be covered up and supported.
