High necked, good value, nude undertops

I have some knee-length, V-necked dresses and V-necked tops that I want to wear for work. However, I would like some light, high necked, nude vests/ tops to wear under, to block the view of cleavage but still give the overall V necked effect. I would prefer natural fabrics/ low prices. Any ideas?

might be a bit low cut?

a bit paler

This one might work better:pale pink one of these - higher neck

Ok, not what you're looking for, but I couldn't resist showing you this

They're great under dresses, although I would prefer a v neckline.

Like Apuski's Topshop link

Well, the Spanx slip looks great but is more than I wanted to pay (though I guess I could if I really wanted to!) Also I am size 14-16 and 34G approx, so a) might not fit into the Spanx and b) I need lots of support.

I am not sure either about the whole thing of showing underwear as outerwear, I don't want to look as if my bra or slip is accidentally on display!

Being quite busty, I also need quite a high neckline to avoid the appearance of
cleavage!

But thanks for looking for me!

The Promod top does look interesting. I guess what I am thinking of atm is finding something a bit like that, ideally in a natural fibre, but perhaps in a sale somewhere if I can!

Go to primark - honestly their long sleeve tops are a really good fit lots of length they have elastane in them so a good fit and all for £3 ish.

I would like short sleeve vests though, as I want to wear them into the Spring/Summer under wrap dresses (perhaps on cooler spring/summer days) and not to leave too much of a line.

Also, natural fabrics.

aarghhelp · 24/02/2010 20:21
