Underclothes for see-thru tops?

I have a really cute white camp shirt that will be perfect for summer...but it's pretty much see-through!

What are the best (i.e. classy and non-tarty) undergarments to wear with it? I have a nude bra but I think I would want more skin covered up than just my bust.

Thanks -- Sara

Maybe try a nude colored cami?

Pray tell, what is a "camp shirt"?

I am not 100% sure, but I think that a camp shirt is button-down shirt in cotton or linen that looks like a safari shirt, i.e. has breast pockets and sleeves than can be rolled and adjusted.

That's my impression of a camp shirt as well.

I'd try a bright camisole that you let peek out at the top. E.g. a bright golden yellow (or whichever yellow looks good against your skin). Jockey has some really nice ones. (see jockey.com, or check barenecessities.com, though the Jockey site has a much broader spectrum of colors.)

First off, apologies to Angie for not clarifying what a camp shirt was! :-) And Tanya, many thanks for the link.

I actually have a nude camisole, but was wondering if there was something more interesting. I have an eyelet shirt and I like to wear bright pink or green camis underneath...but the camp shirt is a bit more refined and probably necessitates similarly-styled undergarments.

Antje, thanks for the link! I am going to check out those Jockey camis soon, the V-neck ones are super-cute. - Sara
