Lovely navy v-neck top

Anyone seen any about? Must have sleeves to elbow or longer. It's for a family photo shoot with the in-laws and I'm struggling! Any price range as long as it's flattering

Have you looked at PattyBoutik tops on Amazon? Nothing new or different but there are several v necks, they come in navy and all the reviewers always say how flatttering that are!

I found this in John Lewis for £40 if it would do the job?

Try kettlewellcolours.co.uk They have a few such styles. The silky v-neck has two navy colours.

The JL is very nice thanks orchid, but I feel it might be too clingy - my figure is okay but if I'm sitting, I think I would have obvious tummy/hips rolls visible in that top (I've had three children and my mid section is pretty squishy at best). I guess I need something that skims a bit more.

I'll have a look through kettlewell, thanks nothingwitty. A friend has just suggested Cos, so will have a browse there too

Try Boden

I've had a look at boden, thanks for the suggestion Hopping. I may order a few to try, but I think either the prints are going to be too fussy for a photo shoot or the styles just wouldnt work on me (i often find they are too boxy - short/wide). This is harder than it sounds!
Cos had nothing, with the exception of the ruffle neck blouse, which I might go in store to try on but I suspect wont work on me.

Massimo Dutti have a nice v neck with a neck tie. It is dark navy so maybe not the right shade of navy.

dark navy is good (my kids will be in dark navy). I'll check it out, thanks wildrose
