When Joann Lublin’s book Earning It launched last fall, I couldn’t wait to read it—and not just because it pictures a woman wearing a classic white shirt on its cover. Lublin interviewed 50 female executives for her book, and I wanted to know everything about their rise to the top.

The book covers such a wide range of real issues that any reader is sure to relate to at least one woman's story. Perhaps most refreshing is Lublin's own admission of mistakes she has made in her career. My only frustration with the book was that I wanted more from each storyteller. Reading it felt like attending a panel discussion where one panelist captured my attention, but the moderator had to give equal time to everyone on stage. It raised mulitple questions without the benefit of a Q&A session afterward! Fortunately, many of the women interviewed have written their own books, which Lublin lists in a helpful bibliography.

As a company that helps busty women dress for leadership, Campbell & Kate's review wouldn't be complete without highlights from the chapter on executive presence. Here are our favorite pointers.

If there's one thing near and dear to a busty woman's heart, it's the garment that she wears closest to her large chest. So it was only natural to host a Bras & Brunch event at our pop up shop last month!

Velaire Elliott and Jen Baker, co-founders of the exciting new startup My Bra Concierge, flew in from opposite coasts just to help each guest discover her best size and style. If you'd like to help Velaire and Jen prepare for their launch, please complete this survey!

Of course the guests of honor were the gorgeous bras. The Soraya by Elomi was a big hit, especially since it comes in 32-40 DD-JJ.

Longline lovers were big fans of this Freya Fancies version that goes up to an H cup in 30-36 bands.

We have BIG news for women with big busts: Campbell & Kate is having its first Manhattan pop up shop at the Of Mercer flagship store from April 6-9. To celebrate, we've styled our shirts with a few key pieces from Of Mercer's desk-to-dinner collection.

Sheath Dresses that Flatter a Busty Figure

Of Mercer has great sheaths that look amazing on women with large chests. Some of them, like the Bryant and Bedford dresses below, can easily accommodate a G cup.

(Wonder what our model is reading below? You'll definitely want to read our review of it in our next blog post!)

When we showed you how to layer this loungewear look last month, we promised to share a great sports bra for busty women who want to wear ultra-wide armholes without broadcasting a beige bra.

Introducing the Lynx ladder back sports bra. Not only does this bra look fine under wide armholes, it looks FABULOUS in back. Women with a large chest can now wear back-revealing athleisure tops instead of sticking with standard bra-covering tees!

While the ladder back only comes in black, Lynx offers cross back and racer back options in GREAT colors and patterns.

Of all the colors we offer, navy has never been at the top of our list. We should have known better. When a customer ordered it for the first time, we were blown away by the sharp and versatile result.

Now we're so obsessed with dark blue that we couldn't help but see it everywhere at yesterday's trade show. Which of these bras for a large chest would YOU choose to wear under a navy shirt?

For the past month, we've been showing you how to build a polished look from a comfortable base. We even revealed stylist Christina Frik's formula to take you from working from home to running around.

Today's look begins with a striped tunic over leggings. Don't even worry about the ultra-wide armholes. These are usually off limits to busty women who don't want to flash their bras at the world, but we've got a great sports bra to share with you in our next post.

Next, Christina uses a grey blazer and one of our button front shirts for large busted women to add structure and polish to the look. Instead of ankle boots, she's chosen knee-length boots. When it comes to proportion, her rule of thumb is to pair "low" shoes with low hems (like a knee-length dress) and high boots with high hems (like this tunic).

If you've been following stylist Christina Frik's work on this blog, you may be curious about her bag choices. Instead of treating a purse as an after-thought, she treats it as a finishing touch. It looks like magic--especially to those of us who rely on a single bag for everything. Even when she showed us how to wear one bag four ways, she didn't choose a quiet little black bag that blended in. Her choice was more like a piece of jewelry!

How does she do it? Today she shows us how to create our own wardrobe of six essential bags based on just two factors:

We don't have to leave our comfort zone just because we've left the house. In this post, Christina shows us two more ways a loungewear base can take us from hanging out to running around.

Her first look begins with a simple white tank top and boyfriend jeans.

Next come taupe ankle boots and a classic white shirt. A button-front shirt is great for adding structure to an otherwise soft or slouchy look, and Campbell & Kate shirts are especially suited for big bust layering because:

What's the best part about working from home? Being able to wear the most comfortable clothes in your closet! If you've ever tried it, however, you know there's one drawback--it can feel brutal to transition to a more polished public look.

Thanks to tips from our stylist Christina, you don't have to compromise comfort to run around town. She's put together great layering looks that begin with loungewear for the base. Today's look starts with a soft dolman top over leggings.

To make it city-ready, she slipped a classic white shirt from Campbell & Kate under the striped tee. Next, she added a chunky link necklace on top and black ankle boots on the bottom.
