I am
always on a quest for a flattering tee for a woman of a certain age. At this
point, I don’t bother with a silk shell or blouse under my suit jackets. Silk
needs to be dry-cleaned and at my current stage in life my top would have to be
cleaned after every wearing. Tees are washable, but they must be of a professional
style and flattering cut.
Crewnecks
are stifling. V-necks will do in a pinch. A scoop neck is perfect, but hard to
find. But a most appealing option is the current offering by Coldwater Creek of
a square neck tee with cap sleeves and just the right amount of spandex for
stretch.
This
top is currently available in 6 colors and is extremely flattering on any body
type. I bought it in 4 of the color options with a temptation to purchase the
other 2.
I do
recommend you size down. It is a roomy cut. It is such a beautiful top. And it
is so rare to find a square neck top. I would urge the buyers for the various
purveyors of women’s wear to think about flattering necklines. Really, the
crewneck favors nobody!
I
have to admit I’ve never been a regular customer of Coldwater Creek. In the
past, I’ve found the fashions to be somewhat skewed towards matronly, which is
a curse word in my world. However, I’ve tried to be open to the offerings of
any number of boutique style stores and have concluded that with keeping a keen
focus on what is fashionable, there are clothes at Coldwater Creek that are
eminently wearable. Give it a try!
