Looks like silk, feels like pajamas, under $50 full price

J Crew has some pretty collarless ones (I think they’ll look strange under a jacket though) in cotton and silk, ASOS has a fantastic plain white one (in regular and a “larger-busted” variety) for $40, and I cleaned Nordstrom Rack out of some gorgeous Lamarque silk blouse styled ones that you can possibly to still get direct from the designer (styles are Cinta (S/S) and Ohara (L/S)), as well as a beautiful french cuff by Tibi. Veronica Beard also made a great one (style: Brigitte) that is on clearance if your size is still available, etc.

Would anyone have any updates on where to find the perfect shirt for layering under suit jackets? I’m looking for long-sleeved cotton scoop necks in a nice enough quality that they’re office-appropriate.

Macy’s has the faux wrap tops in polyester. They never gape open and are modest, and they go on sale frequently for ~$24 each -comes.

Christopher and Banks has the very nicely made, fine knit cotton satin-piped crew necks, in a dozen colors. They also go on sale (two for $18-24, regularly 2 for $29). They’re easy care and have a slightly satiny finish to them that makes them dressy enough for work as a layered top with a dressy skirt or under a suit.

I can’t bring myself to wear a shell unless it’s really quite warm out and I’m in a suit.

I used to have a white v-necked blouse with 3 pin-tucked pleats parallel to the neck-line (sat higher on the neck). Still looking for this style, because it sat high enough to provide a pleasant contrast for darker suits, but had a softer look than an oxford collared shirt.
