{"product_id":"rhea-blouse","title":"RHEA | TRENDY STRIPED BLOUSE","description":"\u003cp\u003e\"I had it on for three hours in the sun, in and out of the car and the air conditioning, and I forgot about the sleeves entirely. My sister said I looked ten years younger. I told her it was a long sleeve on one of the warmest days of the year.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Rhea is the blouse our customers buy when they have quietly given up on long sleeves in summer. Too warm, too thin, or too obviously there to cover something. This is the one that changed their minds.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA softly striped long sleeved blouse in a lightweight fabric that breathes, with a relaxed crew neckline and an easy cut that flatters without billowing. The stripes are the classic kind, the sort you would have called timeless in a J.Crew catalog twenty years ago. Light enough to forget you have sleeves on. Easy worn loose, easy tucked into trousers with a small necklace.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhy women our age keep coming back for it\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLong sleeves that are not hot. The whole point. A lightweight weave that stays cool in the sun, so you are not peeling it off in a parking lot by eleven in the morning.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEasy arm coverage, without looking like coverage. It reads as a nice blouse you put on without thinking, not as something you wore to hide.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA relaxed cut that flatters. Loose enough to skim, structured enough that it does not billow. Lovely untucked, polished tucked in.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThree quiet colors. Soft blue, khaki, and a gentle gray. Most of our customers buy two.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhy the price is what it is\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e$52.95 for a blouse you will actually keep reaching for, when it normally sells for $139.95, is frankly on the suspicious side. Most of our customers ask. So here is the honest comparison, written on the back of a notepad in our office.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEileen Fisher striped top — $178\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eJ.Jill striped blouse — $79\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSanibel Boutique Rhea — $52.95\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe are 22 years old this month, and the Anniversary Sale is the only time of year we let go of these prices. Once a color is gone for the season, it is gone until next year.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eStack the sizes, stack the savings\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBuy 2, save 15% extra\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBuy 3, save 20% extra\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBuy 4, save 25% extra\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe discount comes off automatically in the cart. Most customers grab two colors. The soft blue is already running low in the middle sizes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhat arrives at your door\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEvery order comes wrapped in soft tissue inside a small kraft paper parcel, tied with natural twine, with a handwritten note from Eleanor tucked inside. About a week to arrive. Tracked. Free.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\"Thank you for trying us. Hope this one earns its place in your closet.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHow it fits\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Rhea runs true to size with a relaxed, lightly loose cut, and is available S through 2XL. If you are between sizes or like a roomier drape, size up by one.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNo questions, 30 day returns\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf it does not earn a place in your closet, send it back within 30 days for a full refund. No restocking fee, no questions. We would rather it went to someone who will wear it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA few of the recent reviews\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\"The first long sleeve I have worn to a summer lunch in twenty years. It is genuinely light, it does not cling, and I stopped hiding my arms in photographs.\" — Margaret, 64\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\"I bought the blue and the khaki. Lovely with white linen trousers and a small necklace, and it does not feel warm at all.\" — Jennifer, 58\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\"I have three cardigans I bought only to cover my arms at dinner. I have not reached for any of them since this arrived.\" — Linda, 71\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLoved by 847 verified buyers, most of them women aged 50 to 80.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ivy \u0026 Monroe New York","offers":[{"title":"Blue \/ S","offer_id":56808048492870,"sku":null,"price":49.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Blue \/ M","offer_id":56808048525638,"sku":null,"price":49.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Blue \/ L","offer_id":56808048558406,"sku":null,"price":49.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Blue \/ XL","offer_id":56808048591174,"sku":null,"price":49.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Blue \/ 2XL","offer_id":56808048623942,"sku":null,"price":49.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Khaki \/ S","offer_id":56808048656710,"sku":null,"price":49.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Khaki \/ M","offer_id":56808048689478,"sku":null,"price":49.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Khaki \/ L","offer_id":56808048722246,"sku":null,"price":49.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Khaki \/ XL","offer_id":56808048755014,"sku":null,"price":49.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Khaki \/ 2XL","offer_id":56808048787782,"sku":null,"price":49.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Gray \/ S","offer_id":56808048820550,"sku":null,"price":49.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Gray \/ M","offer_id":56808048853318,"sku":null,"price":49.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Gray \/ L","offer_id":56808048886086,"sku":null,"price":49.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Gray \/ XL","offer_id":56808048918854,"sku":null,"price":49.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Gray \/ 2XL","offer_id":56808048951622,"sku":null,"price":49.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0997\/7135\/1366\/files\/Zonder_titel_1200_x_1600_px_4.png?v=1781721355","url":"https:\/\/www.ivyandmonroe-ny.com\/products\/rhea-blouse","provider":"Ivy \u0026 Monroe New York","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
