I am sick of scrolling through THINGS THAT ARE NOT RIGHT. Please help me MNers.

I am looking for a shirt (long nightshirt style, not for tucking into skirts style if that makes sense). It has to be able to be delivered by Wednesday and I want it to have

Long sleeves that I can roll up
Stiff collar and button fastenings
Sheer/semi opaque fabric
White or cream
Below hip length with that kind of look where it is longer at the front and back and higher at the sides (rounded hem? Dipped hem?)

I am having a mid week break with DH for the first time in yonks and we are going to have lots of sex Grin

I hate scratchy lacy type stuff and so does DH. I don't like or suit overtly "sexy" kind of babydoll or see through stuff and DH just likes that style of women in shirts with rolled up sleeves and bed hair thank fuck Wink I have lots of mens/stripy/cotton type shirts/nightshirts but want something a bit more special for a stay in a hotel involving lots of sex Smile so thought a shirt which is sheer, sort of see through fabric would be nice.

It has to arrive by Wednesday, don't mind paying for express postage and budget as low as possible but would go up to £50 as I want lots of sex quality.

Over to you, wonderful MNers!

(Please note I want shopping recommendations, not Brian from Hull perving over the thought of half naked women thank you. Also any posts starting with "speaking as a man..." can fuck right off.)

Have you tried searching beach cover ups?

RosesAndHellebores · 02/07/2022 16:00

Just buy yourself a bottle of White Linen and leave the rest to the imagination.

SickOfFuckingScrollingForShirts · 02/07/2022 16:01

I just ordered the Matalan as it was too good a price not to, the XS was out of stock so I sized up (should be loose anyway) and didn't want the Small to sell out.

I shall look at beach cover ups though, that is a good idea

100 people looking at the Matalan shirt RIGHT NOW!
All mumsnetters contemplating what a good sex shirt might be like...Grin

If I'm buying Sex Perfume I'm going for Baccarat Rouge Wink (I'm not though as I can't afford it Grin)

That is exactly what I want! Sadly I don't think it will come from India in time, but it's perfect otherwise. I might order it in case we ever get away again in the next decade Grin

I'm sure the Matalan will be good, it's such a long time since we have had a night without DC anyway, I could probably wear a checked flannel male lumberjack shirt and still have lots of sex Smile

Probably not on your radar (based on your listed requirements) but this blouse looks as sexy as hell:

This one is v nice although no collar: www.toa.st/collections/sale/products/stripe-cotton-long-shirt-ecru-charcoal

Hmmm. Probably insufficiently see through too…

That is very very sexy. I'd like something like that in a longer length actually

I don't want to be ungrateful but I think that as a Sex Shirt would put me off sex forever Grin

I'm not good with Toast or Cos though generally, they make me look like a child dressing up as a nun...

Am I the only one thinking this a lot of effort put in to finding the perfect shirt that by the sounds of it you won't be wearing much anyway? 🤣

Herecomestreble1 · 02/07/2022 16:53

SickOfFuckingScrollingForShirts · 02/07/2022 15:56

I actually think that Matalan one is the closest! And such a good price too (I usually hate polyester but a see through fabric is hard to find). I could get one for back up too at that price Grin

Hooray! Hope it gets the desired response 😁

H&M have loads of shirts and shirt dresses in atm that sound like what you’re looking for.

LookItsMeAgain · 02/07/2022 17:40

Here is one from H&M:

It's not as long as some of the others suggested but it does appear to be sheer.

You don't know how long it takes my DH to unbutton something Grin

OP posts:
SickOfFuckingScrollingForShirts · 02/07/2022 18:20

Thank you all though, it's very appreciated, and I've been entertained too! I'm will provide feedback (on the shirt, not the sex obviously) and I may buy that Etsy one too Grin

I did Google beach cover ups, and I'd like to know what beach people would wear this as a cover up...I suspect Blackpool

lurchermummy · 02/07/2022 18:24

Somehow the thought of your DH getting all hot and bothered about you in a plain white shirt makes me very happy. It seems so sexy in a nice understated way. I hope you find the right shirt and have a fab weekend!

Homewardbound2022 · 02/07/2022 19:02

Have you looked at Cos?
