I don't particularly care how they fit, as long as they're not really tight. They'll have cardigans over them most of the time, anyway.

I also don't really care what kind of neckline it has, either, as long as it's not a crew-neck.

I need something that I can buy a few of and wear with yoga-style pants, then just be able to throw them in the washing machine when the inevitable baby vomit happens and replace it with another one from my bag. (I'm sick of wearing nice dresses to work and having to go out with the baby with stains all over my clothes).

I'd probably want a size 16-18.

Does anyone know if Big W or Kmart would still have something like this in stock?

Kmart did a few weeks ago, they would likely be in the Clearance area now though.

Kmart has some at the moment for $8, I love them and have been getting heaps of wear out of mine original.gif

Thanks. original.gif

Supre (as much as I hate the store) have longer plain singlet tops for $15 in a range of colours. They are my basic and perfect for just running around the house and layering because I have a long torso and normal singlets aren't long enough.

Jay Jays Jeans also sell good quality and cheap tops.

Target, OP, plus they have a good sale on today - buy one item get 50% off the second.

Supre have nice ones in a range of colours, Jayjays also has a range of singlets and tank tops usually.

I've gotten some good ones in Cotton On..

Okay, I just bought a whole pile of singlets at Kmart, but they're all racerback ones and I don't have any racerback underwear.

I might check out Supre for some more singletty type ones, especially if they're longer. They've expanded their size range beyond the width of my left leg by now, haven't they?

I was going to suggest Supre as well. Long and so many different colours!

I even wore singlet tops from there whilst I was pregnant because they are so much longer than most stores and they only cost me $5-$10 a pop!

Try Supre and /or Cotton On.

I have stacks of them in all colours and that's where I usually get them from.

I get mine super cheap from asos.com. They are on special for about $8 a pop right now and really nice quality.

i wouldn't touch supre/cotton on with a 10 foot pole, i'm a 12-14 and nothing fits.

kmart/big w is where i head

To solve the non racer back bra issue, you can buy slide clips that link your existing bra straps together - voila bra suitable for racer back tank

I imagine your bra straps may need to be adjusted but for the price it seems good to try
