When did the fashion designers decide that we don't need full sleeves on our blouses, shirts, etc.?? Is it the cost of that little bit of fabric that they decided to save by reducing the length of a sleeve and cutting it down to 1/2 inch?? How much could that save? Or is it just a fashion thing? The one they use on models that weigh maybe 98 pounds soaking wet??
Have any idea what I'm talking about?? No?? Ok, let me fill you in.
Ladies - have any of you over the age of 40 gone out to buy a blouse lately? A t-shirt? Fashion top? Have you noticed that the underarm portion of a sleeve has gone from 3-4 inches to a mere 1/2 inch? Have you tried to cover your fat, flabby arms with this? Have you gone to the Fitting Room only to leave totally disgusted because it does NOT cover your arms? No?? Then let me know where you shop!!
I was in JC Penney and Dillard's the other day looking for new tops. I tried them all - Juniors, Ladies, Misses and Big Fat Women. Not a single top had any sleeve longer than 1/2" underarm. Tried pulling the sleeves down to cover the flab and it was impossible. The underpart of the sleeve keeps sticking in my armpit and leaves the flab hanging out for the world to see.
I'm telling you, that is NOT HAPPENING!! I walked out of both stores totally digusted and I will tell you now that I will NOT buy a new top until they give me back a full sleeve.
LISTEN UP FASHION GUYS - THIS IS A REVOLT!

A hair up my ass
Ok, I can't stand it anymore. I have the proverbial "hair up my ass" and I just have to complain. No more Ms Nice Lady!
