Finding a top that is both comfortable for all-day wear and stylish enough for casual Fridays at work is surprisingly difficult, but this blouse hits the mark entirely. The visual texture created by the contrasting stripe directions is brilliant and catches the eye in a very elegant way. The fabric has a luxurious, silky feel to it while still remaining incredibly breathable. I have worn it out in the hot afternoon sun and felt completely comfortable. It is well-constructed, drapes beautifully over the shoulders, and looks way more expensive than it is.
