Quality best tops

12 replies

I see alot of people who say they wear nice trousers with a vest top and cardigan and either a scarf or nice jewellery.
In vest tops I feel like my boobs are precariously on show or they're too short. I can't wear spaghetti strap because of scaffold bras so I was wondering if anyone had quality vest tops that tick all the boxes or could at least point me in the right direction please ?

Tesco usually have good thick shoulder straps on vests, although the white ones have been getting thin the last year or two, so stick to darker shades unless you like your bra on show

Thankyou.

No. Definitely no boobs on show.

Gap have lots atm - not tried them, but there's 30% off. Hint: go to the Banana Republic site if the Gap one is crashed. JMQZFQM2CFTK is the checkout code.

I only got the white ones for work, I have some old Bay Trading ones that are thick enough not to show my bra. Hopefully this year the summer uniform will be a dark colour.

H&M vest tops are great they have thick straps do you can't see your bra strap and they are quite long so you can ether tuck them in or have them over the top of jeans and don't have to worry about bending over.
They wash great Iv had a some for a few years and they look the same as the new ones can get them in different colours and they are only £3.99-£4.99

Mamas and Papas do lovely thick stretchy cotton vests. Discovered them whilst pregnant, but fine for non-preggers folk. The ones I get are long in the body with a scoop neck, which I really like but they have different styles, including basic spaghetti straps if that's what you're after.

Primark - every colour, every style.

I wear vest tops all the time. H&M for me.

Thanks for all suggestions.

I hate shopping for tops. I rarely find anything I really like.
I bought some vests from Dorothy Perkins last year but they got loose and droopy really quickly and continually slide at the front so I look down and it looks like two bald men.
