I bought this blouse for an upcoming trip to Egypt. I need clothes that will breath, be very conservative in terms of showing my body shape, and look nice in photos that I hope to keep for a long time. It looks like this lovely cotton blouse will do just that. The arms are cut wide enough to allow ventilation without exposing skin, the fabric is a well made cotton, the shape is conservative without being frumpy, and the detailing around the neck gives it an attractive, interesting touch. Very glad I bought it!
