Blouses are the new accessories. Ladies stitch many types and patterns of blouses like backless, sleeveless, different neck patterns, off the shoulder and many more. But, many ladies want to wear modest blouses which would suit their personality.
The blouse sleeve designs play a very important role in making your blouse impressive one. One of the most liked patterns of blouses is the full sleeves blouses. The full sleeves blouse can also be trendy!! Yes, you heard it right. Full sleeves blouses are no more old fashion.
Some full sleeved blouse designs
* The first and the simplest is the simple front hooked blouse with full sleeves. Though this was an old fashion, but a bit of change in the design by just choosing appropriate colors of the blouse matching with contrasting sari. You may even try a thin zari border.
* The other style is stitching a deep back neck with full sleeves. This type of blouse will make you look taller.
* The full sleeves blouses can be stitched with different fabrics like cotton, silk, chanderi etc. The types of fabrics give different looks.
* The full sleeves blouse can also be stitched in floral print. The floral print can be combined with any color plain sari.
* The full sleeved blouses can be stitched with mix and match patterns. The blouse and sleeves of the blouse can be of different color, but, matching with the sari. The contrast combination on mix and match blouse would rarely look good because too many colors can look a bit gaudy.
* You can try a lengthy blouse with full sleeves. This would give a royal and ethnic look.
* The full sleeves blouses can also be combined with frills. The frills can be stitched at the back neck or also at the sleeves end. This would give a retro look to the lady wearing the blouse.
* A full sleeves blouse would also look good with off shoulder neck. A fusion of traditional fabric with this design would give a graceful look.
* The loveliest combination is a full-length net sleeve. The net sleeves give a classy look and would look nice with any fabric. You can also try an embroidered fabric and full-length net sleeves.
Some points to consider
If you are thinking about stitching full sleeves blouse, the most important thing you need to take care of is the quality of fabric you are choosing. While pairing with any type of cloth, the full sleeved blouse has to be strong enough to bear the wear and tear to the highest limit possible.
If you are stitching any delicate piece like mirror work or net fabric, make sure you wash the blouse with extra care but washing it too often can also damage the fabric. These small steps if taken into consideration can do a lot for you.
Always keep trying for something new in your wardrobe. Trying new styles would never make you look aging and you will emerge as a charming personality.

Spring is in the air and it’s time to update our fashion wardrobes for the spring and summer season. Every year I look forward to the start of the spring season and when I can go shopping for new dresses, skirts, tops, shorts and of course…the essential light-weight jacket.

The company sent me a complimentary Port Authority® Ladies Active Soft Shell Jacket to try out for all of you. This jacket is one of their best-selling products and honestly, I can see why! It’s fantastic!
The jacket is available in 6 different color choices and is made out of 100% polyester with a water-resistant mesh liner that is breathable. Typically when you think of a jacket like this, they’re made out of stiff and plastic-feeling type of material. Not this one! It feels super-soft against your skin…almost like peach-skin!
The outside of the jacket features 2 waist-area reach-in pockets, elastic cuffs (keeps the wind out) and a full length zipper. One of the things I really appreciate about this jacket is that it has a cadet-style collar and the zipper runs the entire length of the jacket. This will help to keep the wind out from chin-to-waist!
Inside the jacket is lined with the breathable mesh lining and you’ll also find two reach-in pockets. These pockets are great for holding your cellphone, a travel packet of tissues, keys, etc. I love when a jacket includes interior pockets like this one! Smart! Around the waist-area of the jacket you’ll find an interior bungy cord that you can pull-on to cinch in the waist of the jacket to keep rain & wind out! Plus, if you’re looking for waist-definition, cinching it in will give you a nice hourglass shape too!
In my area of the country, this light-weight jacket is absolutely perfect for three seasons out of the year and it really fits your body nicely. It’s not boxy and really skims your body shape nicely. It’s roomy enough to allow you to move around freely doing your daily activities. It’s machine washable & tumble dry low. Easy care and easy wear!
The jacket is available in 6 different color choices and in sizes x-small through 4-XL. You can buy them as-is or order them with custom screen printing and/or embroidery. I love when a company gives you a ton of custom-options like this.
This is one of the best jackets that I’ve had in many years! Matter of fact, it’s so fantastic that my 68 year old mother (who’s modeling it in the photo’s) has been trying to snatch it from my house. Seriously, I have to keep it hidden from her or I will never see it again!
