V neck t-shirts in ice colours - anyone seen any?

[NotOnMute]

My usual go-to place for t-shirts with decent shape, smooth cotton and a flattering but not revealing V neck is Uniqlo, but this season they’ve decided mud brown, baby poo yellow and tangerine pink are the colours to wear.

I’m looking for something similar in terms of quality and fit, but in ice colours (I mean cool-toned, I look awful in anything warm or yellow). Ideally ice blue, but really any ice colour, to wear with linen navy linen trousers in summer.

I love TU Sainsbury's t-shirts. I'm not sure about which colours they have available this season but they're really reasonably priced and always wash up well.

I have this problem with Uniqlo too - love the quality but struggle with the colours. Last year I bought Esprit t-shirts, which were great, and Benetton ones which were lovely colours but not nearly such good quality.

Sainsbury’s have nothing in ice colours, but some lovely linen (turquoise) which I’m quite tempted by.

I’ll have a look at Esprit, thanks!

If your not worried about branding, have you considered fruit of the loom or other wholesale type t shirts?

Gap have a linen v neck t-shirt in various colours. And a discount on atm.

The Gildan ones would be fine, but no ice colours, unfortunately. Same problem with Esprit, all sludge colours. And I did Gap last year - too baggy, washed very badly so the V neck distorted, and on one of them the stitching came undone. Not doing that again.

Kettlewell
Pricey though

Try 'ex M&S' on eBay

The White Company v neck cotton t shirts last years, they are lovely quality. But an eye watering £35 each. They have blue, pink and white this year. Can usually find a discount code

Boden v necks are decent, can be a bit low cut depending on your shape though.

Yes, kettlebell are meant to be very good but hideously expensive!!
Have you checked Boden, crew clothing?
I too wear cool colours. 😁

Boden is all warm (I’ve got white and navy already), definitely no ice colours. I’d buy this if it had any colour that suited me!

I’ll look at White Company, but I don’t usually pay that much for t-shirts.

I love the Kettlewell colours but I find the arms on the t-shirts badly designed (have an odd flap, a bit too long), and I’m between sizes, so I’m always a bit disappointed when I buy from there.

Would the violet not be cool?
I'm warm and wouldn't be able to wear it.
Or do you specifically mean ice blue?

These are fab, not sure if they are the colours you require.

You’re right, the violet might work (wasn’t sure from the screen) but I’m not sure it will go with navy or black linen trousers, which is what I’m looking for. Seems a bit too dark / strong all over for summer weather. I might try it anyway, to wear with jeans

@JMAngel1 And yes, ideally ice blue acqua or pink, any light colour I can wear that’s not white, basically!

Hobbs
Lands End

here Next have some cool toned pastels. The khaki in this one is also cool toned and works with black and navy. Lightweight material but flattering.

Blue looks nice too.

@PaulHollywoodsLowHangingFruit Thanks, the cobalt blue looks good. The greens and pink are way too yellow, at least on my screen. I’ll have a look in real life if I get a chance, but I need very blue-toned / cool, otherwise I have people asking me if I’ve been ill recently.

Tommy Hilfiger do a lovely V neck essentials T shirt and have ice blue and mint green etc. They are lovely and although they are about £40 on their website you can usually them much cheaper online. Flattering shape too and a good length.

Here is the pale green

There a couple of these in I've plus and lilac www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B0883VH2HH/ref=twister_B0883YGNLL?th=1&tag=mumsnetforu03-21

@goose1964 Those look perfect! I wish they had my size.

@ThankyouPeter Thanks! I’ll have a google for them for less than £40, they look ideal.

Not cheap but j crew is always good for icy colours. They do a linen v neck too but that’s even more expensive. If you join the mailing list there are frequently 20% off deals. I usually wait for those and stock up.
