Shy Arms Giveaway

The arms of a lady: greased to the elbows with activities and occasionally wobbly with wear. Perhaps you care not to bear your embracers. Whether your shyness to skin is value, cellulite, or climate-based, your needs warrant the security of fashionable coverage.

Of course you can always add shirt-sleeves with your standby cardigan, but what if your desire to cover the details of your triceps conflicts with your desire to showcase your blouse embroidery and dress embellishments? Rather than an over-cloak you need an underpinning.

Might I suggest a Scoopneck 3/4 Sleeve with Cuff from Shade Clothing? I happen to know it personally and I can tell you all about it.


1. Fabric. It transforms effortlessly from mellow to prim and the modal/spandex blend makes it deliciously snugly. This ensures you are not only comfortable, but any upper arm wigglies are thoroughly contained.


2. Weight: These tees are slightly heavier than tissue thin, making them a dreamy layering basic (ie worn under something). If you do wear it as a stand a-lone, make sure your bra matches and do a few crunches to prepare.


3. Sleeve Length: The new best friend of upper and middle figures since it so kindly creates interest at their comparatively slim hips. If you're an hourglass or lower figure, nudge that sleeve line up to your elbow to create an equally delightful line of interest at your narrow waist.


4. Torso Length: Praises to the Shade Ladies and Gentleman for designing away excess information gaps between blouses and trousers. (But should you be a lower figure or hourglass with buxom hips, please refrain from leaving this one untucked. Indelicately squeezing anything around your triple threat (hips, thighs and seat) will only create an unfair visual comparison between the width of your waist and your hip. Trust me, just tuck it in.)

Indeed, this piece follows suit with everything by Shade Clothing: superior materials, exceptionally well fitted, and delightfully demure.
