Great quality jersey tops

Where do you get them?

I want a black or dark grey V neck top to wear to my Xmas do with a sequin skirt.

I would like a wrap top or perhaps simply a v-neck one. Good quality cotton or cotton/lycra.

I like this one at Baukjen, but if I'm going to pay £50 for effectively a v-neck t-shirt, I'm going to need to make sure it s the right one :)

Oh, also I need a size 18 or 20 and the Baukjen only goes up to 16 - so it's not an option afterall.

Me too! Am no help I'm afraid but I want just this! They have a couple of nice looking ones in pepperberry but I haven't decided if they're perfect enough to order.

www.bravissimo.com/m/pepperberry/#products/tops/jersey-tops/wrap-pleated-top/navy/pt411nvy/ oops it's navy not black, sorry!

PartTimeModel · 03/12/2015 18:55

That would be perfect in black!

billabye · 03/12/2015 18:56

Next have some nice wrap type ones

superbfairywren · 03/12/2015 20:41

I have a feeling they had a black one with short sleeves on the pepperberry site too! I am still umming and aahing about the navy one. Hoping to find a slightly cheaper option. Love the baukjen one. Wish I could afford it!

I have had two from Pure - really lovely quality , not sure if there are any styles you might like. They wash beautifully.

BikeRunSki · 03/12/2015 21:17

Anything here? Loads of styles, good quality and you can search by colour. Not cheap, but cheaper than Bakujen. I have a Bakujen top, it's great quality, but a bit clingy.

PartTimeModel · 03/12/2015 21:19

I'm wearing a lovely red PURE one now I got recently. They were out of stock in black and pewter. I will take another look though. Thanks (I'm OP BTW)

TheMightyMing · 03/12/2015 21:24

The slash neck one is lovely. I am considering ordering another. I am a big Baukjen fan but think it's expensive for what it is. But having said that, for the most part, if you are careful it washes beautifully.

www.bravissimo.com/m/pepperberry/#products/tops/jersey-tops/twist-waist-top/black/pt416blk/ found similar in black, looks good!!

LovelyFriend · 03/12/2015 21:45

That's great thank Superb

I'm looking for something a little more dressy thank the Landsend one.

the Baukjen slash neck is lovely too- but I'm pretty busty and the silhouette is totally lost on me. Wrap or V neck is more flattering. Baukjen offered me a 25% off code on the website - new customer.

This from dorothy perkins is a bit dressier, but I can't really vouch for the quality.

LovelyFriend · 03/12/2015 22:07

the style is nice hugo but I do find DP's quality varies. Also I'd quite like to avoid polyester - the skirt will probably be polyester already. Last year I wore a nice wrap dress (after MN advice :)) but the polyester fabric kind of spoilt how nice I felt in it IYKWIM.

I don't go to fancy do's very often - aiming to feel a little glam but also comfortable. I don't mind spending a bit extra as I will get lots of wear out of it.

PURE are only doing red, 2 different blues and white. How can they have discontinued the black?

LovelyFriend · 03/12/2015 22:14

just looked at the Boden one - only available in one size (not mine). Boo!
I can't see any wrap tops on Great Plains.
JL is out of stock on all black wrap tops.

Pepperberry looking good.
