The Sleeve
Praise the Lord and pass the ammunition...according to the New York Times Style Section, knowers of all things trendy, this spring is all about The Sleeve!!!
Just look at all those lovely arms...wait, you can't see them? That's right, you can't! I have never been so excited to begin a fashion season in my life. Just imagine, a spring without the anxiety of the tank top, a summer wrapped in light cotton fabric. I can wave at someone across the street without fear of knocking over some short passerby. It's like that old deodorant commerical, raise your hand if you're sure, but this summer it's raise your hand if you've got fat arms cause we can't see 'em!
The style gods have answered my prayers with the sweetest kimono tops you've ever seen, and just look at that jacket on the left...cute as a button! So long, skinny-armed girls with your halter tops and strapless dresses, you can give your hand weights a rest cause this season's not about you and your toned triceps. No, this season is about the rest of us being cute and comfortable and covered up! Don't get me wrong honey, there are still plenty of parts of myself I don't mind exposing, but my fat arms have never been one of them. I'm not sure how the sleeves will work in the sweltering heat of the summer, but they're a risk I'm willing to take in the name of high fashion!

Puh-leez! As if that's the only thing I'll be wanting...just put aside one of everything with a billowy sleeve!
