Any ideas?

I've decided I need to get some new "nicer" shirts and tops for this summer so I don't spend the next 4 months just wearing yucky old tank tops. But I can't seem to find anything I like online, they seem to all just be t-shirts. Any suggestions for shops?

Of course, cheap as well as nifty is what I'm looking for.

i've always wanted to find *one* vintage dress pattern that i loved and then wear it like a t-shirt. just throw it on. and then whip up a new one anytime i got bored. that's my evil plan to keep me from the lure of the ratty tank top... only that's as far as i've got.

Tailor one of your hubby's dress shirts into a shirtdress/tunic? Trapeze tops from a vintage pillow case? I'm in the middle of figuring that out for myself. Pull out what you have to see what can be modified; strappy tanks into halters, halters with extra long straps into x-backs, long sleeves to short, etc. I'm a layer-er so I keep a lot of basic tanktop undershirts (both plain white and fun colors) to layer underneath if I find something nice but revealing.
