A BIG thank you to everyone who chimed in on my shirt poll. Hooray to the people who reminded me of camis! And to tangential who nailed it when she said that it really comes down to what you are comfortable in.
Now, for the shirt that inspired the question. In the store, it was decided that this was *not* a work shirt because it was too low cut. But then, I really *wanted* to wear it and emotion started getting > judgment. In the end, I dug out my black cami and, lo and behold, it matched. The first thing EVER this cami has matched! It was a function of a couple of things:
1. The shirt isn't solid black so you don't directly compare the colors.
2. They are both synthetic so the texture and the way they hold color is similar.
3. My pants weren't black but a deep charcoal so they complimented each other.
And now what you all wanted to see (I'm sure ; ), pictures!
