Silk tops

Has anyone seen any recently? I can't seem to find anything. I'm looking for something I can wear with a pair of black coated skinnies and a blazer. Needs to be generous of nork and enclose a full bra. I usually go for cream or grey but I'd be open to other jewel colours, not black or white. I'm a bit scared of patterns.

John Lewis also lets you search by material.

I've got a couple of silk camis from Cami NYC (via net a porter) yep they're camis but I too, am large enough of norm (34F) and I wear with a decent strapless and feel (hopefully also look) fab in my cami, skinnies and blazer

Those cami NYC tops are lovely, but I've never met a strapless bra that didn't disappoint.

I like the shirts but I always end up feeling like it's a bit work wear for me. Maybe I need to try a few others. I didn't know about John Lewis, I'll check, thanks.

Those NYC camis are absolutely gorgeous but expensive - what is the sizing like shalda?

Boden has silk tops that aren't so worky.

30% off at the moment as well!

The Biden silk shirt is very nice, I got the burgundy 1 this year. It’s quite substantial for silk and a nice cut.

@TheHoundsofLove pretty standard I think, I take a 12 which is my usual size. I like them because there's enough material so I can tuck into jeans and pull out a bit which hides my muffin tops 🤪

Arket and otherstories? Saw some lovely tops/silk shirts in both last night.

Just bought on boden! I'll look at other stories too although I was in a store last week and couldn't find anything I liked. They may have a better selection online.
