No more t-shirts?

I find that t shirts accentuate my muffin top and steer clear preferring cotton shirts and shift tops that don't cling.

Love T shirts, I have loads and do not intend to give them up. I wear what I want, not what some ' stylist' thinks I should.

Since the top half of my trunk sank down onto the bottom half, I am finding that plain colour tee shirts accentuate my wideness.

I like a nice cotton blouse myself. White with blue flowers preferably.

Agree with stillhere on those points.
roundneck tees look awful on anyone not young and thin, I wear v neck ones under an open shirt or vest type ones under an open shirt or jacket ( not a blazer I hasten to add) but haven't worn a tee on it's own for quite a few years as simply not flattering any more.

I belonged to an internet music forum which was made up of mainly middle-aged people. We organised regional gatherings and posted pictures of the participants. We noticed that many of the men mainly, and I include myself, dressed in black or dark coloured tee-shirts to disguise their spreading girth. We christened them FOBBITS - Fat Old Balding Blokes In Tee Shirts.

I feel you should wear what you want to wear - simple. Mind you, I have been sorting out t-shirts as my daughter gave me a kit at Christmas for making knickers - the t-shirt fabric is great for the gusset!

Tee shirts with horizontal stripes are OK-perhaps not so much on large busts.Vnecks are good at making the top half look taller but a floaty scarf can do this as well.Logos and girly designs look a bit silly on mature ladies--but at the end of the day make your own style and people will love you for it!The young may not notice you but they will only smile benignly
if they do!

I really wish it was easier to get plain white tops and blouses that don't look like either school uniform shirts or sportswear, and don't have logos or fussy detailing. A plain white top (with whatever neckline you prefer) in a good quality fabric is so useful with a variety of outfits. At the moment white T shirts tend to be the nearest thing you can get on the high street.

So she wants us to dress like Mary Berry? No thanks . I have rather generous boobs & to get a blouse that fits at the front it is huge on the back & if the back fits the front won't do up or gapes, no -one is getting me out of my t-shirts

I threw out my round neck t shirts years ago, but only because I felt I couldn't breath in them. I always wear v neck t shirts or an occasional scoop neck, either plain for around the house or beaded/patterned for going out. I only wear a (white) blouse for funerals ( it was bought umpteen years ago for an interview)so rarely used.

knowsley reminds me of a group of lads that came on Dragons Den with a cycling clothing range called FLAB - fat lad at back, that is what they call the cyclist at the back of the group. The Dragons thought it was insulting not funny, but I see they are now in business.

Nanny - I think I saw some in MnS yesterday - slashed neck t-shirts, that is.

Any t shirts or tops with three quarter length sleeves, I find annoying.
When it's chilly, you want coverage.
If it's hot, I wear short sleeves.

I will not stop wearing T-shirts.
I have one or two 'posher' tops but several Tees in all sorts of colours. I have never worn blouses as am small busted but have a large waist so they either fit bust or middle. I'm definitely not a fan of the "pulled button look" with flesh showing when I sit down Or on men with beer bellies either
I do have a black jacket ? blazer for evening but prefer a cardi

When I occasionally see those pretentious, patronising and horribly over painted women on TV rattling on about "age appropriate" clothing I hear myself hurling abuse at them.....and then I hear a little voice say "granny!" Oops!

T shirts all the way for me, but in plain colours. I too can't do with glittery bits, pictures or slogans and after seven years of wearing a blazer at school I have no intention of ever putting one on again.

I love my T shirts - preferably V necked and short sleeves. It seems to be increasingly difficult to get them in decent fabric and interesting colours though.

I shall wear what I want - and certainly not take any notice if fashion gurus lol!

Pish. I wear what's comfortable and what I think suits me. I also don't give a damn if someone thinks I'm an old woman. I am one. Not very old but definitely old; Minibags says so. She has one friend whose mother is a tiny bit older than me but I'm older than some of her friends' grannies.

I have no plans to ditch my T-shirts just yet. I find that fitted V necks ( not too low though) are more flattering than round neck which I find have a tendency to make your boobs look as if they are heading south once we are past our youth, and oh boy, I left my youth behind quite a while ago !!!!!!
I have several V necks in all sorts of bright jewel like colours. I usually wear them with a plain black pencil skirt. I have a couple of pretty M+S embroidered short jackets from years ago ( in the days when M+S sold clothing worth having ) that I co-ordinate the T shirt with, or I choose a plainer jacket so that the colour of the T shirt speaks for itself. I am very lucky in that I have very good friends who would tell me immediately if my T-shirt days were over.
My advice would be to keep well away from any with Logos or fancy patterns. Keep them simple and just carry on enjoying wearing them.

I like the T shirt fabric, love a V or scoop neck, must have a reasonable sleeve....... but it's the body length. Most T shirts are just too short.

When Nannylovesshopping mentioned slash necked t-shirts I had a flashback to the 60's remember making slashnecks out of new terry nappies!!! Did I really do that!!!!!!

Blame the chest of drawers Stillhere. Mine does the exact same thing to my clothes, as does my wardrobe, especially during the winter. Come spring everything that hasn't been out for six months or more has mysteriously shrunk!

It occurred to me today that, though I have about half a dozen tee shirts, the only time I wear them is under an open shirt. I have a thing about collars - got a have them. I wear a lot of cotton shirts and polo shirts. Tees and even a crew neck sweater without anything under it make me feel very "exposed". There are some nice tops in the shops at the moment, but so many of them have scoop necks, so they're not for me, sadly.

Need to say that whomever said should of is incorrect, should have is correct, sorry Not bothered about looking thin just comfy
so jeans and t shirts will continue together with leather jacket would look silly on bike in a blazer.
