Plus size shirts to wear with trousers at work

Starting back in the office a few days a week after a long period of working from home, where nobody could see what I wore from the chest upwards! Uncertainty about dress code to start with means I plan to wear a 'uniform' of black trousers each day but would like to vary the top half and buy a couple of shirts. I plan to wear them untucked (dress code is formal but not particularly smart). Where can I buy from? I've got one from Evans (black with green heart print - not too keen on the hearts, but colours and fit mean I'll keep it). Where else can I look? Marks & Spencers, maybe Monsoon?

Not really answering your question as I like a longer untucked top and often struggle to find them, so I often wear longer length vests from Next then I feel more comfortable wearing a shorter top. Don't know if that's any help whatsoever thoughGrin

Like this, and they do them with thicker straps too

I wear this kind of thing, I have about 12 all different patterns. Look smart, are comfy and a doddle to wash.

Definitely Sainsburys! They do lovely oversized shirts in a range of colours. Nice and long too

Thank you. I would not have thought to look at Sainsburys so will give that a go. I like the top linked to, although I'd need something with sleeves so will see if they do something similar. The Next long line tops are a good call too! I am tall so would benefit from a longer top underneath.

Next app online will be your best friend here as you can search by size, colour etc. I buy lots of stuff from the app clearance section too which is worth a regular look. I have also been impressed with Roman Plus Sized on the next app and also from Roman direct for work clothes.
