Oh lord. These tube tops were all the rage when I was in my 20s, and we weren't smart enough to wear them under anything. I have some horrifying photos of me-at work- wearing a tube top with a feather in my hair and high cut bell bottoms. (All of which came back). I cant see my shoes but I guarantee that they were platforms.

Fortunately, women today are smarter, and wear tube tops under tanks with large armholes and lowcut or open tops as part of an outfit, or as a modesty panel.

And thats exactly why I bought these. I have a pretty dress that is too low cut but is too warm to add a cami under, so I tried these instead. I put one over my bra,  and worn under things that are too low cut, they give the perfect amount of modesty. They are cooler for me and probably anybody who looks at me, if my age alone doesnt add the chill alone.

Im 100 lbs, 34D (can you imagine wearing a plain tube top and nothing else with those puppies) and they fit perfectly. I haven't had to constantly tug on them but so far, Ive only worn one dress. They are quite stretchy so I think a wide range of sizes can wear them.

I haven't washed one yet so don't know how theyd hold up but would put it in a lingerie bag, as I do all my cheaper things. Or, you know, lingerie. At my age though, its just undies. I haven't graduated to granny panties yet...but its coming.

So, these tube tops brought back memories of a bad clothing time in my life but I think the new trends will be redeeming. Just don't wear these as a shirt and make the mistake I did!.
