Free the boob
Having a decent bra is key but Lara explained that it was also important to let the boobs breath and ditch the bra.
She wrote that some pieces of clothing actually felt a whole lot more supportive and comfortable without the bra.
The fashion whizz recommended trying it the next time you wear a snug top or dress.
Experiment with style
Experimenting with different styles will give you the chance to know what you feel best in and which haunt you.

By doing this, Lara has found a corset that is now her trusted top for nights out.
The Meshki Delaney corset is perfect for bigger busted girls, said Lara in a TikTok video.
Before, Lara was scared to wear a corset because of her boobs – but because she experimented she found one that worked for her.
Find your style
But you can also stick to what you know, as Lara revealed she always relies on baby t-shirts as a flattering day-to-day option.
Lara also said she always goes for sweetheart necklines and halter necks, because you can adjust the tightnesss to suit you.
Boob tape
Writing for Mama Mia, Lara said she wasn’t a big fan of boob tape.
Boob tape may not be your favourite thing to wear – but for some tops or dresses it’s a necessity.
Lara recommends finding one that works for you, and her favourite brand of boob tape, Good Lines.
Size up
Lara revealed that one of the best things she’s done to dress her bust is to size up when unsure on what size to get.
While Lara is in Australia, she revealed that clothes sizing is all over the place – just like in the UK.
The fashion expert added that having a clothing item that is slightly too big is more preferred to having one that is too small.
Basics are different for everyone
You hear plenty of people discuss ‘basic’ pieces to have in your wardrobe.
But the truth is basics look different for everyone – depending on your body shape and style preference.
Lara recommends thinking about this when adding to your wardrobe – and to make sure it’s something that you’ll actually wear.
Buy multiples
If you find an item that makes you feel amazing than buy it in multiple colours says Lara.
“After all, styling and the right accessories make pieces look completely different time after time,” she adds.
Follow people with similar bodies to you
Lara recommends doing a social media clear out and stick to fashion and styling sources that have similar body shapes to you.
Not only will you get way more inspiration for different outfits – but it will make you feel good.
