Teal Lantern Sleeve Blouse Basic Bae with Jeans Size Options | Sky Blue / S 100101062161849

How to Measure Your Blouse

Lay a similar blouse flat on a table and use a soft tape measure. Measure in inches or centimeters, then compare to the size guide or your preferred fit. Allow a 1–3 cm (0.5–1 in) variation due to manual measurement.

1. Bust: Measure straight across the front from underarm seam to underarm seam. Multiply by 2 for full bust.
2. Shoulder Width: Measure straight across the back from shoulder seam to shoulder seam. If the blouse has a dropped shoulder, measure from where the shoulder seam would naturally sit.
3. Sleeve Length (Lantern Sleeve): Measure from the top of the shoulder seam to the end of the cuff. For dropped shoulders, measure from where the shoulder seam would sit to the cuff. If the cuff is elastic, note relaxed and gently stretched lengths.
4. Upper Arm/Bicep: About 2–3 cm (1 in) below the armhole, measure straight across the sleeve and multiply by 2.
5. Cuff Opening: Measure straight across the cuff. If elastic, record relaxed and comfortably stretched measurements.
6. Length: Measure from the highest point of the shoulder (where the shoulder seam meets the neckline) straight down to the hem.
7. Hem Width: Measure across the bottom hem and multiply by 2.

Tip: If you’re between sizes, choose the size that best matches your bust and shoulder measurements for comfort, and use the hem width to decide on a relaxed vs. slimmer look.

Materials & Feel

Exact fiber content for this item isn’t specified here. Lantern-sleeve blouses like this commonly come in the following fabrics—check the product tag or details section for your exact composition:

• Polyester Crepe/Chiffon: Lightweight, flowy drape, wrinkle-resistant, often matte with a soft texture. Easy care and travel-friendly.
• Rayon/Viscose: Soft hand-feel with beautiful drape and breathability. May wrinkle more easily; handle gently when wet.
• Cotton or Cotton Blend: Crisp, breathable, and a bit more structured—great if you prefer a sharper silhouette.
• Elastane/Spandex (0–5%): Adds stretch and comfort, often found in cuffs or blended into the fabric for ease of movement.

Opacity can vary by fabric weight and color. If the fabric is lightweight or semi-sheer, a nude camisole is recommended.

Model & Fit Notes

Styled with jeans for a casual-chic look. Lantern sleeves create volume from elbow to cuff, balanced by a relaxed body that’s easy to tuck or wear loose.

• Typical Fit: Semi-relaxed through the body with defined cuffs. Works well tucked into high-rise jeans or worn out over mid-rise styles.
• Size Choice: Choose your usual size for an easy drape. Size down for a neater, closer-to-body look; size up for extra sleeve volume or more room at the bust.
• Length Feel: On petite frames it may sit a bit longer; tall frames may find it hits around the high hip—adjust with a French tuck for balance.

Note: Specific model height and size details were not provided for this product.

Care Guide (to keep it lovely longer)

• Wash: Turn inside out and place in a mesh bag. Cold, gentle cycle with similar colors. Use mild detergent and avoid bleach.
• Dry: Reshape sleeves while damp. Hang or lay flat to dry away from direct sunlight. Avoid high heat tumble drying.
• De-wrinkle: Steam to release wrinkles; if ironing is needed, use low heat and press cuffs lightly. Avoid direct high heat on any elastic.
• Storage: Hang on a padded hanger to protect the shoulder line, or fold neatly to prevent stretching. Keep away from rough surfaces that may snag.
• Stain Care: Blot (don’t rub) and treat promptly with a gentle stain remover; test on an inside seam first.
• Color Care: Deep teal can transfer on first washes—use a color-catcher sheet and wash with similar tones.

Style Tips

• Everyday Denim: Pair with high-rise straight or slim jeans. Try a French tuck to balance the sleeve volume.
• Work-Ready: Add a structured blazer and dark-wash denim or tailored trousers. Finish with loafers or block heels.
• Dress It Up: Tuck into black skinny jeans or a satin midi skirt. Add pointed heels and statement earrings.
• Weekend Casual: Style with relaxed wide-leg or mom jeans and clean white sneakers. Layer with a longline cardigan.
• Color Pairing: Teal shines with neutrals (black, white, cream, tan) and accents like gold, camel, blush, mustard, or burgundy.
• Accessories: A slim belt defines the waist when tucked. Gold-toned jewelry complements teal beautifully.
