POL Lace Eyelet Long Sleeve Cotton Blouse

Eyelet and lacework run right through this blouse, so the texture is built into the fabric rather than added on top of it. A split neckline is framed with delicate ladder trim, which is the kind of detail you only notice up close and then cannot stop noticing. Below it, a softly gathered empire seam shapes the silhouette without gripping anywhere.

It is made from 100% cotton, which is the reason to buy it. Cotton breathes in a way that a synthetic simply will not, so an eyelet blouse in real cotton stays comfortable on the days you need it most. There is no stretch at all, so the measurements are the measurements: bust runs 33 inches at S, 33.5 inches at M and 34 inches at L, with the length going from 23 to 24 inches. Long sleeves drape with gentle volume, and vertical lace panels add subtle structure and contrast across the body. It comes in off white in sizes S, M and L.

Off white and eyelet together lean warm and slightly nostalgic, which makes this an easy partner for denim in any wash. Straight leg jeans and flat sandals is the version you will wear most. Tucked into a linen skirt with espadrilles it turns into a holiday blouse. Layered under a tan or camel knit with just the lace cuffs showing at the wrist, it works well past summer. The eyelet is open by nature, so a simple cami underneath is worth considering depending on how much light you are standing in.
