I would go for a really chunky navy wool jumper, <a class="break-all" href="http://www.google.co.uk/imgres?q=chunky+knit+and+shirt&start=65&hl=en&sa=X&rlz=1R2GGNI_en-GBGB443&biw=1600&bih=660&tbm=isch&prmd=imvns&tbnid=ptntZeKprkcGUM:&imgrefurl=styleguile.blogspot.com/2012/02/mum-on-run-long-velvet-topshop-skirt.html&docid=fw1WL-kysSJwMM&imgurl=4.bp.blogspot.com/-yHqfg8LmkAg/Tzam0DZSOmI/AAAAAAAAA6U/CGCOUWvhcDU/s1600/long%252Bskirt%252B005.JPG&w=1195&h=1600&ei=m1xfUIb3OKe_0QXHu4DAAw&zoom=1&iact=hc&vpx=964&vpy=126&dur=210&hovh=260&hovw=194&tx=128&ty=113&sig=114253757785595141557&page=3&tbnh=145&tbnw=111&ndsp=37&ved=1t:429,r:5,s:65,i:21" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">this sort of look but with full sleeves! It makes it a bit more fashionable.

chunky? with tailored trews or pencil skirt?

Tailored trousers, definately. Could work with pencil skirt, but I have a really cute outfit in my head of 7/8 trousers, slim fitting, shirt and an arran type jumper over the top.

BreakOutTheKaraoke · 23/09/2012 20:20

Imagine this sort of look in blues.

MissBeehivingUnderTheMistletoe · 23/09/2012 20:27

I like those chunky knits but I wonder if they'd make any one with a decent set of norks look a bit upholstered.

BreakOutTheKaraoke · 23/09/2012 20:49

To be honest, I'm flat as a pancake so have no idea for people with great boobs!
