Layering helps one keep warm and cuddly too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/pls-suggest-modern-classic-essential-tops#post-815489 Fri, 11 Jan 2013 18:13:14 +0000 pil 815489@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>While I don't have one, isn't this the BR sweater so many have? Maybe it is more casual than you are looking for though.</p> <p><a href="http://bananarepublic.gap.com/browse/product.do?pid=238788052" rel="nofollow">http://bananarepublic.gap.com/.....=238788052</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/pls-suggest-modern-classic-essential-tops#post-815468 Fri, 11 Jan 2013 18:01:23 +0000 Mamapicklejuice 815468@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I was just in Loft today and it seemed like all spring stuff! I think I need to hit the sales racks at the larger department stores. Thanks, everyone! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/pls-suggest-modern-classic-essential-tops#post-815466 Fri, 11 Jan 2013 17:59:30 +0000 Anonymous 815466@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ah, BR had a great selection of cashmere blend turtlenecks but I no longer see them online. do you have a store nearby? Other than that, I saw some good sweaters at LOFT and Club Monaco, it is worth checking them out, although stores seem to be transitioning to Spring right now.</p> <p>For blouses, I like the brooks brothers ones but I don't like how they layer, as they are stiff. Express makes very affordable button down blouses, that do not gape, I think they called them "the essential" shirt. I used to have a few on heavy rotation, but I switched to softer blouses. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/pls-suggest-modern-classic-essential-tops#post-815462 Fri, 11 Jan 2013 17:58:25 +0000 Amy 815462@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Button front blouses for layering under sweaters! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/pls-suggest-modern-classic-essential-tops#post-815456 Fri, 11 Jan 2013 17:51:34 +0000 Mamapicklejuice 815456@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Very true, Janet - although I should have mentioned that right now I'm looking for warm and cuddly items. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/pls-suggest-modern-classic-essential-tops#post-815450 Fri, 11 Jan 2013 17:44:48 +0000 Janet 815450@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What about blouses or button-front shirts? Even though I have a casual life, I love having silk blouses that I can tuck or not, layer or not, and can be dressed up or down. I also really enjoy the versatility of a chambray shirt, and a classic white fitted button-front. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/pls-suggest-modern-classic-essential-tops#post-815447 Fri, 11 Jan 2013 17:39:14 +0000 Mamapicklejuice 815447@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>My tops from the past few years all see worn out/pilled/skinchy etc. I need to pick up a week's worth of tops. I figure I'd start with the 'essential' modern classic list...can anyone help me flesh that out? I think black merino or cashmere turtlenecks are on it along wth bretton tops (any leads on either of those would be great.</p> <p>I'll report back with pix/WIW as thanks! :))) </p>
