I tend to look for (non-ribbed) tanks rather than camis, though they are more difficult to find. Target had some pretty decent quality tanks earlier in the summer; don't know if they still do. Black, brown, and navy would be good basic colors to have on hand. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/lets-talk-camis-and-tanks#post-19145 Wed, 06 Aug 2008 20:37:37 +0000 Ola 19145@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I hear you on the shelf bras in camis - they seem to make me feel squished and sweaty. And at a D/DD cup I have no hope of wearing them without a bra anyway, so what's the point. I've found I'm much happier with camis that don't have the shelf bra. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/lets-talk-camis-and-tanks#post-19124 Wed, 06 Aug 2008 19:15:54 +0000 Dani 19124@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Brandy, I've had good luck with these. They have a little higher rise and are longer so the coverage is better for me:</p> <p><a href="http://www.soma.com/store/browse/product.jsp?maxRec=3&#038;pageId=1&#038;productId=100066455&#038;viewAll=&#038;prd=Seamfree+Fabulous+Cami&#038;subCatId=cat200108&#038;color=&#038;fromSearch=&#038;inSeam=&#038;posId=1&#038;catId=cat40135&#038;cat=Activewear+Tanks++Camis&#038;colorFamily=&#038;maxPg=1&#038;size=" rel="nofollow">http://www.soma.com/store/brow.....#038;size=</a></p> <p>My only gripe with them is they're nylon so they don't breathe very well when it's hot. </p> <p>I've also had luck with nordstrom's calson camis:<br /> <a href="http://shop.nordstrom.com/S/2891693?Category=&#038;Search=True&#038;SearchType=keywordsearch&#038;keyword=calson+cami+in+All+Categories&#038;origin=searchresults" rel="nofollow">http://shop.nordstrom.com/S/28.....rchresults</a></p> <p>I have the same issue as you (D cup) and have found these work fairly well. </p> <p>Colors depend on what you have in your wardrobe to work with them. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/lets-talk-camis-and-tanks#post-19109 Wed, 06 Aug 2008 18:29:23 +0000 minivanmom 19109@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The tank's I currently own are el cheapo cotton ribbed tanks from Walmart. I wear a D cup so those cami's with the shelf bra are a joke. I try to find tanks without a very low neckline to reduce the cleavage view for my kids while I"m playing with them LOL. I don't typically wear what my daughters and I call "skinny strap" tops (cami's) without a layer over it. </p> <p>What are your favorite brands and styles? And what basic colors do you keep in your wardrobe other than white? What is the best length for it to reach? </p>
