Okay, questions:you cannot beat jcrew for fitted but not clingy t's!
and oh the colors! so many!
i refuse to admit how many i have.....they are part of my daily "momiform"!
- How long are they?
- Are they styled to fit a woman's shape (tailored shape rather than straight)?
- Cost?
- Vee-necks?
I'm glad someone asked this. I'm a vee-neck tee girl and Target has gotten rid of my favorites, replacing them with shorter tees that, given the new lower-rise bottoms, can create embarrassing moments when bending over... Besides, I want some fun colors...

Stacey, They seem to tweak them a little every year and I havent got any of this years yet....too busy holed up with my babe!
But my previous ones have hit right at my hip. Sometimes a little higher, lately a little longer.
They do come in v-neck or crew neck, short or long sleeve. And the vnecks I have (from previous years - cant speak for this year yet) aren't SO V that they're showin' your goods.
They have an absolute RAINBOW of colors.
They wash/dry SO WELL!!!
I don't think I would describe them as tailored.....if you hold them up they pretty much look like thye go straight down....but they have such a wonderful subtle stretch that I never feel "boyish" in them.
They aren't so thin that you HAVE TO layer them, but some years they are thin enough that you CAN layer them and not look like a beefy goon.
Cost - I seem to remember paying around $20 each.
I'm wearing a long sleeve bright red one right now.....oh so comfy. But they're polished enough that you can dress them up or down.
I honestly can't say enough good things about them!
Gosh, do I sound like I work for them?!?!
Would it be bad to admit my local store calls me to let me know of sales and to check up how I like my purchases??!?!

Yesterday I just bought some new t-shirts at the gap that are a little bit of a stretchy material. The girl working there told me that they will shrink a little bit, but not quite as much as a regular cotton tee. I was very happy with the length and fit, and won't mind if it shrinks a smidgen. It comes only in four colors, but they are the four colors I wear most. Here is a link to the shirt:

I think I am going to order some of these. I have such a hard time finding good quality t-shirts!

Just had to pop in and say that I love these t-shirts:

I don't know if you are looking for more arm coverage, but if not, these are kinda cap-sleeve and they are very long, good thick material, and really cute on. They run small.
Oh, and the perfect T from that site is great, too, if you like crew-neck shirts.
