Do you dare to bare? Super feminine drawstring tie top. You can have her strappy or puff sleeve.. Or why not have both and make two! Such a cute addition to your summer wardrobe. She has a x strap from the shoulder through the bust panels creating a cute tear shape. The length of the bust panel is easily changed for those with a bigger bust or want a bit more coverage. I know I’ll be wearing her on every holiday and picnic!

PS. It’s seamless..
