I ordered the BR to try and am tempted to try the Madewell style as well. I can't decide which style would be the most versatile--tees are such a summer workhorse for me that I probably could never have too many! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/linen-tee-shirts#post-1467684 Fri, 03 Apr 2015 16:15:56 +0000 Nannabella 1467684@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>BR linen tees are definitely loose and fluid in fit. I got XS, which is ok, but I think if XXS had been available, it would still have been fluid but with less extra room for the neck to slide off to the side. If you're between two sizes, I'd suggest ordering the smaller if you can. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/linen-tee-shirts#post-1467306 Thu, 02 Apr 2015 22:06:57 +0000 Kirstjen 1467306@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I've bought a couple of t shirts from Poetry &amp; they were not sheer. &nbsp;Have you looked there? &nbsp;<a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.poetryfashion.co.uk/product-V292-POETT/tshirts-tops/pintuck-linen-tshirt.htm">http://www.poetryfashion.co.uk.....tshirt.htm</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/linen-tee-shirts#post-1467277 Thu, 02 Apr 2015 21:44:29 +0000 Staysfit 1467277@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Here are the linen tees I bought, plus EF has them and they are not sheer.

They also have them in some darker colors, which helps. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/linen-tee-shirts#post-1466866 Thu, 02 Apr 2015 05:00:20 +0000 Golden 1466866@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have a couple of the br necks, I love them. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/linen-tee-shirts#post-1466804 Thu, 02 Apr 2015 02:34:52 +0000 Marilyn 1466804@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I bought several of the BR linen tees that Elizabeth linked to.&nbsp; The light coloured ones are a bit too sheer for my liking but the darker colours are fantastic.&nbsp; I picked up a couple colours that were only in store. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/linen-tee-shirts#post-1466798 Thu, 02 Apr 2015 02:24:01 +0000 abc 1466798@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ahh! I spotted the BR ones recently. May have to head back for one or two. The three I got around dec from BR are going strong and workhorses for me so I know these would be good additions. Hope you find what you're looking for. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/linen-tee-shirts#post-1466727 Thu, 02 Apr 2015 00:16:53 +0000 Elizabeth P 1466727@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This BR linen tee is AMAZING.&nbsp; I'm totally kicking myself for not getting it in navy, cobalt and red - all sold out now.&nbsp; I wore it for the first time while away the last couple of weeks.&nbsp; I will try the white as well now. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/linen-tee-shirts#post-1466724 Thu, 02 Apr 2015 00:15:24 +0000 Anonymous 1466724@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>hmmm. &nbsp;I am not wanting schlumpy. &nbsp;I will still buy one and try it though. &nbsp;Thanks for the heads up. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/linen-tee-shirts#post-1466721 Thu, 02 Apr 2015 00:12:13 +0000 shiny 1466721@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Have you tried Eileen Fisher? Also Ann Taylor. I have one of each (EF is white &amp; asymmetrical; AT is grey with elbow sleeves)&nbsp;and neither is sheer. I also tried on some linen tees recently at BR which weren't that sheer, but I didn't like the fit.</p> <p>I will say that while linen tees are quite comfy and cool, there's something about the fabric that doesn't work for me. Within an hour or two of wearing, I start to feel overly schlumpy. Is this just me?</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/linen-tee-shirts#post-1466717 Thu, 02 Apr 2015 00:11:29 +0000 Daria 1466717@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Have you tried Madewell? They look fairly opaque to me, although it does depend on the color obviously. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/linen-tee-shirts#post-1466716 Thu, 02 Apr 2015 00:10:13 +0000 Angie 1466716@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Just had luck with a client at BR. V-neck. On my phone so cannot link to it. But it is great. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/linen-tee-shirts#post-1466706 Thu, 02 Apr 2015 00:06:20 +0000 Aida 1466706@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have a few linen and linen-blend tees from JCrew, but they do tend to run on the sheer side. Haven't looked at any in person this year so I can't recommend anything specific, but the two I have from previous years I really like. #1 is one I got last year, holding up well. #2 is one I'm looking at for this year but haven't seen in person yet. And #3 is a cotton/poly blend tee that feels a surprising amount like linen, and a good non-sheer weight. I am recalling that Madewell had some good linen tees last spring, not sure about this year. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/linen-tee-shirts#post-1466699 Wed, 01 Apr 2015 23:59:57 +0000 Anonymous 1466699@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm a fan of linen ts and tanks, and can I say that they actually don't look all that sheer on? &nbsp;&nbsp; I'm the first one to balk at sheerness, but I found that white was not a problem with a smooth nude bra, and same with black. They are intended to be worn quite loose, so it might be worth really trying one on and seeing how it looks in daylight. &nbsp;Now maybe you're not intended on wearing it as a layering piece, and if you aren't, then that might be a different story. &nbsp;&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/linen-tee-shirts#post-1466689 Wed, 01 Apr 2015 23:51:15 +0000 Meredith 1466689@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have some opaque colors from the Loft last year...I think they were added later in the season. May or June, maybe? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/linen-tee-shirts#post-1466688 Wed, 01 Apr 2015 23:50:31 +0000 catgirl 1466688@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That spatter tee is amazing - too bad it's gone in my size. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/linen-tee-shirts#post-1466684 Wed, 01 Apr 2015 23:47:43 +0000 Staysfit 1466684@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What color are you looking for? &nbsp;I have found some nice non sheer linen tee's but they are blue. &nbsp;It think it may depend on the color you want. The lighter the color, the more likely you will need a layer underneath. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/linen-tee-shirts#post-1466677 Wed, 01 Apr 2015 23:39:18 +0000 DonnaF 1466677@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Angie picked this T in her "Black, White, and Floral" blog posting a few weeks back.&nbsp; I bought both the black with white splatters and white with black splatters.&nbsp; I was only going to keep one, but when the price dipped to below $20, I couldn't resist keeping both.&nbsp; I wear a charcoal bra under the black one, and a nude bra under the white one, and I find both Ts more opaque than slubbed cotton.&nbsp; These are my very first linen Ts, and I find them so much nicer and more comfortable than cotton ones.&nbsp; I bought my normal Misses size which is XS and it fits more or less like the black one on the model.&nbsp; </p> <p><a href="http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/two-by-vince-camuto-splatter-print-slub-linen-jersey-tee/3924363?cm_mmc=$%28vendor%29$-_-datafeed-_-women:tops:t-shirt_tee-_-1021685&amp;cm_ven=Linkshare&amp;siteId=fV7QgDWUWe0-CgJXLvAz56m2ByVVI3jN5Q" rel="nofollow">http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/tw.....ByVVI3jN5Q</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/linen-tee-shirts#post-1466668 Wed, 01 Apr 2015 23:16:42 +0000 Anonymous 1466668@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I was shopping yesterday. &nbsp;My goal was to find linen tee shirts in colors I can wear AND that were not sheer. &nbsp;No luck. &nbsp;Every single tee shirt I picked up (across a number of merchandizers) was way too sheer. &nbsp;I gave up and came home tired and&nbsp;empty handed. &nbsp;</p> <p>When I eventually find my tee shirt, and I will,&nbsp;I will stock up. &nbsp;It may not be linen though. &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; </p>
