I want a nice top - not T-shirt shaped - not black

I mainly wear dresses, but I want a couple of tops I can wear with skinny jeans. I'm not sure I really know what I mean, or even if what i'm imagining exists, but I don't want a T-shirt style - something kind of more floaty but also cool looking. But not so floaty that it makes me look fat. So here are my criteria:

  • High street shop (quite cheap!) - New Look, H&M, etc
  • I'm size 12-14 and don't like my belly - T-shirts seem to cling around it and highlight the rolls
  • I want ether short sleeves or vest type sleeves
  • Not black or navy
  • I like long tops (so they go well over the aforementioned belly)

Any ideas? I'm rubbish at clothes shopping and will just end up wandering around aimlessly before coming home empty handed.

When I say floaty I don't mean frilly.

I find that the dresses in Primark are often short enough to count as a top :)

I find this style to be very flattering.

I've ordered this one to see how it looks.
