To pick your size, measure your bust then knit the size that is closest to your actual bust measurement, this will give you 2” of ease. If you are large busted, measure your upper bust and actual bust. If your upper bust is 3+ inches smaller then your full bust, consider knitting one size smaller than your full bust measurement for a better overall fit.
