Sleeves!

I’m really struggling, between ‘grown-on’ which make me look like a sumo wrestler and bunch up if you put anything on over them, batwing, which are impractical for actually doing anything and you can’t wear a jacket over, and loose cuffs, which get wet every time I wash my hands. I love fashion, I’ll try many different styles, but we seem to be in a totally impractical sleeves fashion phase at the moment. Is it just me, or have other people noticed too?

I hate floppy sleeves that you can’t put a cardigan or jacket over. Even if I love the rest of the garment I don’t buy them. My children jokingly say that I’m old and set in my ways!

It's worth looking at Crew Clothing which currently has a sale on. There's a big selection of Breton tops in a good variety of colours. Not sure if the sleeves are actually three-quarter of if the models have exceptionally long arms. I think I'm going to have another look right now!
