Smart or smart-casual work tops for big boobs

Not really an AIBU, posting for traffic. We’re coming out of the season where I can swathe myself in jumpers. I’m 34H and need some smart or smart-casual tops for work that:

Aren’t high-necked, as that makes me look actually deformed
Aren’t too low-necked, obviously
Won’t show bra straps
Aren’t made of too flimsy material
Aren’t see-through
Short sleeves preferred, but not sleeveless
Plain colours preferred over patterns
Ideally stylish and not frumpy!

Any recommendations?

Also would like to know as I’m in a similar quandary!! I have a number of three quarter sleeve blouses which I use but it’s getting a bit dull

I’m impressed you can wear blouses! Should have mentioned that anything with buttons is an absolute no for me, the blouse just pulls and gapes over my boobs

Ah I should have specified the type of blouse with no buttons - v neck collarless type. I’m not describing this very well!!! But the standard button down type I canny wear either

Oh me too! Spend hours scrolling. Agree that three quarter sleeve is good as short sleeve can draw the eye to the line where your boobs are if that makes sense? I work in school and don't want to draw attention to my bust.
