A blouse for under dungarees

I have a couple of pairs of dungarees that I really love, dark denim skinny ones and lighter denim cropped, wide leg ones. They're so comfy and I wear them both loads, but generally always with either a Breton or plain white T-shirt. I'm a bit bored! Has anyone come across any lovely blouses that would look good under dungarees, and a bit different from a plain old T-shirt?

This looks good, third picture styled with silk blouse.

I actually never wear mine with tee shirts. It's never suited me. My dungarees are a dark blue fitted denim slightly cropped and I wear my blouses and smart button down collared tops.

I really like the TU blouses under my dungarees. Lovely bright patterns.

I wear blouses under dungarees all the time. I have a couple from Oxford Shirt Company in Liberty fabrics which are absolutely gorgeous. They’re “fitted” but really not if that makes any sense. I also have some sheer old ones from H&M that look pretty nice and have taken to stealing DH’s Zara men shirts too. I’d wear more voluminous ones with the skinny dungarees and neater ones with the wide leg ones though.

One of my favourite dressed up to go out-out looks at the moment is Lucy&Yak dark blue cord dungarees, a liberty shirt and a fuck off necklace. I think it looks lovely.

Thank you for the suggestions!

Just looking at the Oxford Shirt Co. I've not come across them before but some of those Liberty prints are gorgeous! Love this one:

I'll have a look at Tu as well. I often spot nice bits and pieces in my local Sainsbury's but they never seem to have my size in stock

I wear liberty print shirts, but they can look good with big collars or puff sleeves.
I tend to wear plain with print dungarees, and patterned with plain dungarees

Lovely. Mine are from Liberty, but House of Bruar does them too

If you find stuff on Tu that you like and have a local Argos they don’t charge for click and collect. They had a marvellous dinosaur print blouse that I dithered on last year because of a tit pocket (why??). Should have ordered it. Am now stalking it on eBay.

@broccolibush I loved the animal style prints TU did a while back and I was annoyed I didn’t get more. I’ve found quite a few on Vinted recently! Worth a look on there.

Thank you @Mol1628 - I really need to get up to speed with modern second hand clothes selling 😂
