Striped T-shirt Hell

27 replies

I have recently lost a butt load of weight and now none of my favorite things fit me. I am trying to replace old faves but I am just getting cross because the shops are annoyingly not still selling the exact same clothes I bought 4 years ago, rude I know.

Any way - I am looking for a tight fitting 3/4 sleeve striped t-shirt with a low scoop neck in either navy/white or black/white, cream is also acceptable. I will consider other blues or reds, as long as I can get my basic black or navy.

Distance/thickness of the stripes isn't super important, and ideally I would like to spend £10-£15 or less for each t-shirt as I would like a few.

I cannot find what I am looking for anywhere, everything is too high in the neck or really thin material or is weird and baggy/slouchy! I feel like I am going mad.

Bought the previous ones from Matalan so not like shopping in a strange outhere place.

Where can I buy a stripped t-shirt that fits the above description that won't cost the earth? The only one close I have found was in John Lewis but I wince at paying £35 for a bloody t-shirt!

Any input would be appreciated!

I second Mistral - I have 3 of those striped ones and they're brilliant. Low scoop but robust fabric which doesn't cling.. arms lovely too. Online ordering fine and i've returned stuff with no probs, online and instore..

Right, have ordered the Mistral ones plus the one from Debenhams, I have a TKMaxx right by my work so might pop in at lunch to see if I can find any gems.

Thank you so much for all your help everyone, I thought I was going to go mad at this rate!
