Need a sleeveless plain blue top!

I've bought a beautiful kimono to wear with my denim cut offs this summer but only realised today that every single summer top i have is patterned. I need a plain blue top tip go under said kimono.

Where can i source something? Not a t shirt though as i don't wear t shirts.

Lidl (yes really) have linen sleeveless tops for about a fiver and the moment. They are thinish but great for summer layering and look the same quality as the John Lewis linen vest tops I have but a fraction of the cost!

The oasis formal vest tops are a staple of mine. Fit really nicely. Am wearing a navy blue one right now as it happens 😊

Not sleeveless I know, but this top form uniqlo is lovely and drapes beautifully. I've 3 of them now, they wash nicely and are very flattering.

I know it's possibly not at all what you're after but when I read your post, this top seemed to work when I imagine the finished look you described!

George at Asda do very similar tops to the one palahvah linked to which comes in lots of colours (type in v-neck swing top)

I really like the look of the Oasis top, their quality is usually really good. @TipseyTorvey how is the sizing of this top? Ie did you buy your usual size or did you have to go bigger? I've found that Oasis and Warehouse tops are often on the small side

Rocking I've got massive boob-age - 34ff and broad shouldered, size 12 fits really well. I have about 20 of these tops (bought over the last three years and love them). I don't really like much else from Oasis as its a bit flowery for me but these top make me look like I've made an effort as they wash and drip dry without a need for ironing. Why not buy two sizes for the first one and see which works? I know sending back is a palava but then at least you'll know before you try other colours.

@TipseyTorvey thank you. Yes if i order online will order two - I am usually a 14 but also have tops which are 12 and 16! Will try our local Oasis first to see if they have them
