need new T-shirts

CarrieS · Marc Jacobs

My fave for basic tees anymore is American Apparel. I know Target has some nice ones as well!

lynnie · Chanel

I love the New v-neck T from the Gap. They have white and other colors, and if you size up they are perfectly slouchy. I have 5.

pollyjean23 · Marc Jacobs

Yeah - I know it's at the mall, but I am usually very pleased with Gap tees.

Have you checked if Velvet makes any short-sleeved tees (I'm assuming that is what you seek)? I have a couple long-sleeved ones from Velvet, and they are thicker than other brands-while not being annoyingly stiff.

C&C California? Sometimes theirs are a little too worn/distressed looking, but maybe it would be okay in white.

I got some great tees last year from Banana Republic. The fabric is nice, the price is reasonable, and they're really flattering for a tee shirt.

AllieGurl · Marc Jacobs

I love James Perse tee's. You can usually find them on sale online for around $25, or at discount stores (marshalls, nordstrom rack, off 5th) in the $18 range.

I used to love tee's from sharon segal too, but I cant afford the $ anymore. They are great though if you have the money!

jaymiek · Coach

I can't live without my deep v-neck tees from American Apparel. The tri-blends are my favorite. I tried the Gap ones on and they are pretty good, they just don't come in the colors I want. I've been curious about these J.Crew boyfriend v-necks-

KaffeeKlatsch · Marc Jacobs

I'm with you there...yesterday I went through all my clothes (thanks to the closet cleaning post) and realized I had to get rid of things...out went all my plain old navy tees. Of course this morning I'm realizing I now have no basics!

gossipgirl · Dooney & Bourke

I like Fluxus tees - soo soft

kmd · Kate Spade

Tobi is having a sale right now for an extra 25% off (code: 25more) and they have a ton of Michael Stars, Velvet, etc. I bet you'd be able to find what you're looking for there.

relrel · Marc Jacobs

I've had consistent good luck with the J.Crew v-neck tee's (the tissue thin) and they come in a ton of colors. You can often catch them on sale as well.

I also just found at the Gap some really great tees. They are the ones that Lynnie posted. I've got them in a couple of colors and are great. I've got the correct size for work (M) and slouchy ones (L) for weekend outfits. Not as many colors as J.Crew, but much cheaper.
