Next, Cotton Traders, Lands End, all good for me.

Uniqlo- great prices and quality.

I buy my T-shirt’s from Baukjen. They are loose fitting and boxy with half sleeves. Bit pricy but they have sales quite often.

I'm so glad you posted this. I recently did a 'big shop' in M & S in preparation for my hols, I couldn't wait to get home for a try-on session - but what a disappointment. The T shirts are the most peculiar shape. Tight across the shoulders, loose around the neck but hugely wide around the middle - and short (and i'm only 5ft)!

Until I read this I thought perhaps it was me that was a peculiar shape. Needless to say the majority of my purchases have been returned.

Last summer I bought lots of M&S t shirts at £4.50 each. They were called relaxed fit.

I dont think they have them this year - why?

Cotton traders or Damart

Good luck! I also used to buy T shirts in M&S but I have not done so for a few years. The last time I went they were too short and had violent colours.

I bought some nice tops in Bonmarche but not for a few years because quality has deteriorated and I do not want patterns on the front.

I did buy a beautiful anorak there earlier this year but when I returned to buy one in another colour- all gone.

Boden, White Company or Joules, slightly more expensive but well worth it.

Where do yo u buy your t shirts and blouses from? I used to get mine from Marks and Spencer but I don’t like the colours or the shapes of them this year. I like cotton ones and plain colours, fat covering(!) I’ve checked the websites of landsend, J Lewis’s Boden seasalt, I usually wear t shirts with a pair of cropped cargo type trousers in summer and with jeans or cargo trousers in the rest of the time. I quite like M and Ss linen shirt style blouses. I bought a v neck t shirt from m and s in a slubbed kind of material and it was far too big and baggy round the neck so I’m taking it back tomorrow and I’ll have a look if there’s anything I like. Im trying to think of anywhere else I can look for t shirts and blouses - I fancy a short sleeved plain fronted one.
