Plus size tunic style tops - any recommendations?

I’m a size 20-22, busty, big hips etc. I like tops that I can wear with leggings or jeans which cover my bum a bit! No high necks, prefer a V neck, hate long sleeves, but not too short either, prefer elbow length. I prefer a bit fitted, not these huge ballooning flowy tops that catch on the bust and look like a maternity smock! Any suggestions gratefully received! Thanks :)

I have a couple from Seasalt that might fit your criteria - have a look there?

Sainsburys often do tunic tops, and they are fabulous and excellent value for money. Have a look on the TU website. They are £16 full price.

You'd have to pull the sleeves up.

What's the budget like?

I was going to say Seasalt! Also Mantaray at Debenhams sometimes comes up trumps.

Thanks, I’ll check these out :) I don’t mind spending a bit if they look good and wash well, but I struggle going over about £35 just got one top!

The catalogue people, Witt International have some good tunics. three quarter sleeves side pockets,in black, navy, grey, taupe. In summer the same style but short sleeve and brighter colours. These are what I would call everyday wear, but there are other styles as well. You need to look all the way through.

Lagenlook are great! Good value, too.

Try Joe Browns too!

Love the Long Tall Sally one :) Ordered that, plus found a couple at Debenhams that I like so far. Thanks!

My colleague actually got some lovely ones from Evans. She went to the Marble Arch one I think but I guess they are also online.
