Help me escape from The Black T Shirt!

I am 53. Short and blessed in the norkage dept (36gg).
I must have about 20 black tops.All v neck. Took some stuff back to M and S at the weekend and came home with 2 more......
If you are similarly blessed, what do you go for? Other colours in a plain t shirt just emphasize the problem, I need something that will skim not cling. Any thoughts?

Well... you could branch out into charcoal marl and navy as a first step.

Tunic tops, especially ones with a bit of a pleat at the front. As long as you can avoid the ones in eye watering shades of pink or huge check patterns.

Bizarrely grey and or navy look bad. And I'm short as well so tunics tend to look like dresses!
I guess I will go with impossible to clothe!

Tunic type tops definitely need to be from a petites range. I'm short, I've got some from Lands End over the years. They have loads of tshirt styles and colours too.

Sometimes you know what suits you, personally own a million black tees too and I love them. I occasionally buy ones from the sparkle company with fabulous slogans on.
Embrace the black t! Wear different lipstick or jackets or scarves!
