Desperately searching for a light coloured floral shirt/blouse

I have been, for what seems like forever (but is actually probably about a month) scouring the shops, websites and auction sites for a floral blouse but just cannot find one which lives up to the image I have in my mind. Ideally, it would have a white background with a floral pattern, but I would happily go for one with a different pattern - eg butterfly/bird print etc. It does need to be made from soft, flowing kind of fabric, but not sheer..... Oh, the fussiness! Can you see now why I cannot find it? Anyone seen one on their travels?

How much white do you want it to have? i.e. do you want it to be mainly white with a small floral pattern, or to just have a white background? And what kind of style?

here's one just to prompt a response!!!

Is this one too patterned?

BIWI · 25/06/2013 17:25

Or do you want something more fitted?

Not suggesting these as options, just trying to gauge what kind of style you're after

And what colours does it need to be? a blue one from Next

Wow! Thank you! Had not managed to sift out any of those ones. Skinhead - very keen on Forever 21 shirt. BIWI - not worried about how much white, just wanted a lighter coloured one as there are so many 'floral' blouses/shirts in dark colours which drain me and are not very uplifting for summer. 3/4 length sleeved M&S one is actually not bad - had not even considered M&S and also adore the Next one, but might be out of my price range. Other M&S one is a no-no as it has no sleeves and I need a bingo-wing cover up.

Thanks, both, for your help. Will go and check the old bank balance to see if that Next one is a go-er. Assuming I wear it enough, I might be able to justify the price tag. If not then it's Forever 21.
