Okay, here goes. I am really a low-maintenance type of woman and I hate shopping. However, I am only have one Shabbos top left! I do catering style work every Shabbos day, so I need some tops that will be practical and decent looking. They doesn't need to be super fancy, just something nice, and hopefully not too expensive. (I'm not looking to spend $80 on each top when I'm just working in them and they will need to be washed fairly often.) I need to be able to get all this work done while I'm wearing one of these tops, so nothing too constricting (like a blazer, or something with huge bell sleeves), and nothing that needs to go to the cleaners. I just want tops I can throw on with a black skirt and look appropriately dressed for Shabbos.

I am a size XL or 16, but plus sized clothing won't fit because I'm fairly flat chested.

Any links to something I can buy online would be greatly appreciated.

I'm Same size, and on a low budget. I was very Matzliach with buying beautiful shabbos tops at Elzees in B.P. ($20-$35).
Guess what? I also purchased very pretty weekday and shabbos tops at Walmart. (I dress it up with pretty [cheap] jewelry). I sometimes add a necklastic rubber on the bottom seam of the top, to look prettier. Good luck

Thanks for your responses. I guess I should have been clearer in my OP, I'm actually looking for specific links to tops I can buy online. I truly hate shopping, so I find going to a department store to be a really overwhelming and stressful experience.

Don’t have time to look for you but I have found nice tops on Kohl’s.com.

I wanted to post a link for a specific "textured sequined sweater" at Zara but apparently it's no longer available because it's not coming up. However, Zara has a great sale now and you should be able to find other nice tops at a great price.

OP, I tried to find you some cheap, washable tops from Kohl's because you can do all of the returns via mail. Do you like any of these?

Thanks for the links. For some reason, I didn't even think of Kohl's. Some of these look like thy could work.

Dress Barn for sure. I’ve bought tons of Shabbos tops there and they carry both regular and plus sizes.
