Lace Topped Camis?
I have worn lace topped camis under suits and professional wrap dresses for work and lately my male colleagues cannot keep their eyes on my FACE. I don't have that large of a chest - I am a C… the solid part of the tanks cover any cleavage… Do I need to donate them all? 
Would you say these are these a no-no in the office/professional environment?
For the record I am talking about something like this:
Under something like this (but in a solid color so it's a little more professional looking):

If your suit jacket is buttoned, I think it's fine. If you're wearing your jacket open, I'd go with a blouse that has more coverage. Under the dress, you should be fine

Re: Lace Topped Camis?
I think for certain environments you can get away with them.
I know in the jobs I have held that they wouldn't look professional, even under something.
TBH, if you are noticing that your colleagues are staring at your chest, you are answering your own question about appropriateness.

I agree they can be okay in certain environments.

If it was under a suit, it was always buttoned. I know I have answered my own question  but I was just wondering if these were perceived as "promiscuous" or inappropriate... Or if the guys were just out of line (I guess it's a little of both). I asked a coworker what she thought and she said I looked perfectly professional.
I guess I'm going shopping for some plain tanks and light weight shirts to put under stuff in the warmer weather! I can't do a button down under suits because I sweat like crazy in my office! Thanks!

I'm sure you look totally professional, but I think once certain men see "lace", their minds go different places.

Just because they can't keep their minds out of the gutter over a little lace doesn't mean it's inappropriate or promiscuous.
If you're keeping it professional (and it sounds like you are) I wouldn't worry about it.

I agree - I've been in the same position. Camis under suits. dresses etc.
but, right or wrong, they're not paying attention to what you're saying .......I'd lose the lace.
