Women's Casual Chic Striped Blouse – Clémence

A striped blouse built for slow summer days

Clémence earns its keep from June through September. Wear it buttoned with shorts for a farmers market run, open over a swimsuit on the walk back from the water, or half-tucked into linen trousers for a casual dinner outside. The vertical stripe keeps the look tidy even when the day has been anything but.

Why you'll love this:

• Stripes that lengthen – the vertical stripe pattern pulls the eye up and down the body rather than across it, which is why it stays flattering even in a roomy, relaxed cut and even when it is worn open.
• Pockets you will actually use – dual chest pockets give the front some structure and a place to park your sunglasses when you walk indoors and back out again, which happens all summer long.
• Wear it two ways – suitable for layering over a tank or wearing on its own, thanks to a button-down front that opens all the way once the afternoon heats up and closes again in the evening.
• Room to move – the relaxed cut keeps air between fabric and skin, so a long summer afternoon outdoors does not turn into a reason to go home and change into something else.
