Not sure if this has been mentioned, but there will be a skinnytee TSV on Jan 16. Will include two tanks: one basic white tank and one color tank with crystal embellishments at the bottom. Color choices are black, blush, cobalt, kelly green, strawberry, taupe, and white. $32.98 (s/h 6.22)

Blah. Not liking the sound of this. Crystal embellishments on your butt?

I think the crystals are only on the front of the tank. (EDITED: bottom portion of the tank on front side only. Also, the crystals appear to be small, and are sort of scattered at the bottom of tank).

I'm not really into the "embellishments," but from the pics, it doesn't look too bad. I'd have to see it during the presentation to know for sure.

That sounds kind of cute. I have to think about these. I don't have any with embellishments.

I love these skinny tanks and wear them often. I was just recently wanting to buy more, but they are out of stock in many colors right now. I hope more come in soon. I will not be interested at all in ones with bling on them.

They look terrific on the models. Ever notice they have no tummies.

I believe only the Skinny tee with sleeves comes in plus sizes. They are nice for layering. I always wear a tank or cami of some type. I'm a 16/18 and I have the regular missy size in the tanks and the plus size in the tee with sleeves. I'm a C cup, they fit great but I prefer the missy size. The u neckline on the plus size is a little too deep for me. I don't think they would work well for big busted women or for plus size women who carry their weight in their midriff. That's probably why Q doesn't make a big deal about plus sizes.

One of the worst purchases I ever made ... ever. And my sets pilled horribly. I found some longer tanks and camisoles that work for me and will not be buying skinny tees ever. Did I mention how horrible I found this brand? Smiley Happy

On 12/15/2014 Bagsers said: I like the stretch and length of the skinny tees - definitely for layering only. However, I don't like the material. They're not as comfortable as the tanks I get from Target. I recently took all my skinny tees to the Goodwill, since I kept gravitating to my comfy, soft tanks. They were only getting in the way of me finding my favorites.

Bagsers, Do your tees from Target have extra length? If so, can you share the Brand name? TIA!

Unfortunately, they're just a normal length. They're not short, but I can't pull them over my hiney like I can with a skinny tee.

There are new printed skinny tees that now come in plus size as well as misses.

Actually, the tanks come in O-S and Women's O-S, but QVC hasn't carried the Women's size. The January TSV will have both sizes in the tank set. I am a plus size, I wear the regular size but only under something. It was in the 50's yesterday but there was a chilly wind and I wore a skinny tee under a sweater - worked great. I will be buying the women's size in the TSV to compare, but I like the slight compression I get with the regular size.

I saw this in the Insider and it does look very cute. You get a white one, with the duo, no matter what other color you pick. Like if you pick blue, you get a white one. If you pick black, you get a white one. etc. So, that is one thing that may keep me from buying, I don't need any more white Skinnytees. I think they should have done a complementary color like they usually do. I do however really like the black tank with sparkles on it. I think it's the most versatile and useful one in the bunch. But then I like wearing black a lot and mixing it with other things in my closet.
