I have bought - and washed - 6 open necked blouses www.johnlewis.com/john-lewis-girls'-non-iron-long-sleeve-open-neck-school-blouse-pack-of-2-blue/p17389 when I should have bought closed necks ones to be worn with a tie www.johnlewis.com/john-lewis-non-iron-long-sleeve-blouse-pack-of-2-blue/p17585 What can I do to make these suitable to wear with a tie? Sew on some velcro? Thanks.

I would just buy new ones. I can't see that Velcro will be a good look.

Even with Velcro (or, better, a button and buttonhole) it'll be the wrong shape of collar to work with a tie. Sadly, I think you need to buy the right sort. Maybe sell the wrong ones on EBay?

Thanks NickNacks and Maudant. So infuriating to have much 6 such silly mistakes!
