Ok. The sun made an appearance this weekend and Spring felt like it was daring to pop by, although I'm not abandoning my pop socks just yet. (I know, I have pop socks - speaks volumes)
A little bit invigorated, I started pondering and getting excited about the reality that I can get out my cropped trousers, nicer, lighter tops/ cardi combos, and say
goodbye (for a good few months at least) to scarves, hats, gloves etc.
Then I remembered - the dreaded cap sleeve. My yearly quest will commence for decent tshirts that don't have a bloody cap sleeve which, unless you are slight of build with beautifully toned upper arms, are so horribly unflattering.
Every year I find nice tshirts. Nice material - check.
Not cropped - check.
Sturdy enough to stand up to lots of washes and not fade - check.
Not too sheer - check.
Just a bit different to not be
run of the mill - check.
Decent arm length that comes to mid upper arm - not bloody likely.
No, let's scrimp and save on using material and just give the merest hint of a sleeve, of slither proportions it probably breaks the trading standards description of an actual sleeve? Check, check, check.
Is it just me, or am I being paranoid. Where have all the sleeves gone??!
