A must-have item to smarten up your going-away wardrobe. Staples such as a classic shirt in shimmering satin or with a touch of lace will see you through. Find the perfect fit with added stretch for comfort from plus size clothing specialists Navabi and Chesca. Have fun with polka dots or stick with plain shimmering blouses to create an enviable look.

Classic styles at Eastex and Jacques Vert can form the basis of many occasion wear combinations. Versatile tops, blouses and camisoles can complete a two or three piece outfit. Perfect looks for Mother of the Bride, Mother of the Groom and Grandmother of the Bride. Choose a satin blouse to go with a smart skirt and matching jacket or lace top to wear with wide leg trousers for an evening out.

Loose fitting silk tunics from Phase Eight are alive with colour. Trendsetting touches such as kimono sleeves, slash neckline, dipped and bubble hem gives an up to date finish. For something sleeker make a statement in one of their eye-catching beaded silk blouses. Delicate silk blouses with long sheer sleeves and Jersey lining come with soft flowing hem. Contemporary tops and blouses at Jaeger are cut from fluid silk and boast collarless designs. The range features deep v-neck long sleeve blouses in ivory, pink and khaki. Go-ahead styles to wear with tailored trousers or pencil skirt suits for chic workwear.

Satin trim tops at CC fashion offer understated elegance to go with many outfits. Jersey tops with lace panels, square neck with short sleeves and stretchy lace sleeveless vests come in a lovely mix of colours. Pastel blue, pink, ivory and striking stripes and florals make up the latest arrivals.
