Perfect short sleeved top for under work jacket / cardigan

Help me please! Looking for good, smart, short sleeved tops to go under work jackets and structured cardigan.
Cotton t-shirts start to look knackered after a few washes, and white washes so badly!
I tend to go for coloured, patterned, blouses as they are more forgiving if not perfectly ironed and work well with black trousers and jackets, but i want something plain I can wear with coloured and patterned jackets and trousers!

following! I have the same need for a couple of new tshirt tops - ideally that will work over wide leg trousers

Thank you @butidid !
The third and fourth ones look like they could be good options, shame they don’t have them in other (and none white colours!).
I will try them and report back

I've bought a couple of tops from H&M, like a round-neck t-shirt but with stretch and waist length (so no messy tuck-ins). Cotton based but with elastane/lycra (?). Colours not exciting but smart under jackets and cardigans, one was ribbed.
