Black top with white stripes

Anyone seen any nice ones? I'd like it to be very flattering, top quality, bum covering (shouldn't be too hard as I'm only 5.2"), semi fitted but not clingy. Just got this one from JL and my usual size 10 is absolutely tiny. It is also a very cheap feeling top for the price but the zip detail is nice.

A friend of mine as this and it looked nice on - better than on the model! Friend is short and it seemed quite long on her. www.whitestuff.com/womens/winter-sun-shop-womens/bejing-blue-coast-line-jersey-tee/

Have you tried Me&Em? They have nice Bretons (I've been looking for some myself recently and ordered from both Me&Em and Boden. I returned both as they weren't quite what I was looking for but the Me&Em was vastly higher quality.

I got a nice one in M&S, of all places, but it seems to have disappeared now.

Remus wins the award for most useless poster.

I got one in Zara on Saturday, really nice soft fabric, but quite thin for this time of year unless you were layering it.
