How To Hide Your FLABBY, CREPEY ARMS In Summer

are you wondering how on Earth to make yourself look decent to cover your arms in the summer it's that dreaded time of year cu the juels music where yes the great arm reveal happens doesn't it ladies do we worry about it do you worry about it do you end up feeling uncomfortable feeling that actually your face looks fantastic all the moisturizer and the makeup you've got on you've got you're in your fashionable clothes yet you know you're revealing your arms it's your let down it's aging you you feel uncom able you feel people are focusing their eyes there here that's what you feel well there are some things we can do about it one and this is the big one that I would recommend and that is don't care really just don't care go out there enjoy your time with your with the company you're with and ignore your arms cuz the probability is other people are ignoring your arms especially if you are vibrant and you're engaging into in the conversation you're listening to them you're talking they're going to be looking at your face your eyes your mouth they aren't going to be looking your arms and your arms have done a lot over the years I really don't care I do let my arms out in the summer I mean For Heaven's Sake it's hot it's humid I have to admit my arms aren't so much flabby well actually no the rest of the family do say they are but I do do weights that is something we should we could do to help ourselves but what I do notice when I look in the mirror what I notice most of all more than flab I do notice wrinkles down my arms here so that's what I'm conscious of although at the moment I've noticed because I've been doing weights for about a year now um that is actually diminishing diminishing so weights is helpful although you aren't going to want to hear that but what I do also find other people have said and the advice you see out there is if it's wrinkly area that you're concerned about wrinkles here and you know the skin and so on moisturizing using an Illuminator to reflect light you know those are the tricks we can use for that type of a problem you know those sparkly lotions you know reflects the light off off you bounces it back they're not going to see the wrinkles for the Sparkle and as I said regarding with the loose skin also but also the back Wings weights and that also helps us to maintain our independence for longer anyway so that's a good thing to do isn't it but we could also hide our arms in sleeves and when we're looking for sleeves to hide our arms within let's look for natural materials natural fibers you know those Cottons the Breezy materials uh rayon and viscus also would be good options I do have a website I keep up to date with items so whenever you're watching this video click on the website here my my scaners rayon stroke viscus is the same thing as far as I'm aware it's kind of um it cellulose which is a wood pulp that's kind of regenerated recycled W wood pulp and it has a feel when it's on your skin as being very very similar to Cotton its breathability also is similar to Cotton know like cotton it allows good air flow moisture absorption temperature regulation we also want to avoid dark colors so we we know you know light reflects the the heat now halfway house between sleeveless or long sleeves of course is the short sleeve an example is what I'm wearing here now this blouse for instance is one that I got from Amazon last year and so many of you absolutely loved it I've dug it now out of my summer wardrobe so here it is showing you once again if you didn't get it it's available it's the type of sleeve shape that is it is the sort of sleeve we' be looking for that is hiding backwing isn't it it's hiding a backwing here it's not too long it's not coming down to the Elbow so it's not 3/4 sleeves or coming down to here you know so it's not looking like it's obviously trying to hide our arms and uh it's also hiding that bit of um skin that I don't like this sort of area here the inkly bit as well as hiding the back wings so this is a perfect sort of shape short sleeved top but and also you know this one is a light color although it comes in a variety of colors this is that Swiss dot that's um that was around last year I think around this year because you can still get it and I'll I'll List It Down Below for a lot of countries I I can list this for you from Amazon when we're talking about sleeve shapes so not only sort of short sleeve like this but also flutter sleeves would be very good too but avoid a cap sleeve because where the cap Falls here is actually where your back Wing starts or your wrinkles start so that's actually going to draw the eye to that obvious area because of that demarcation line that appears now when we're talking about short sleeves a fantastic option would just be a short sleeve cotton shirt long sleeves and short sleeves we could look for a broader Ray onlay eyel you know a sort of material that's got a bit of gaping in it a bit of holes in it you know that that sort of halfway house that's sort of looking summerish even if it's a long sleeve I think another option as well this might sound strange is sort of like more is less in a way that actually if we show more of our arms so say halter necks really going up higher this area here is not so noticed because we don't have a demarcation around here as where you would have with say a cap sleeve or a a short sleeve or sleeveless you know you got more of a demarcation here if you're going totally halter neck this is just part a little part of a bigger area so less noticeable and our skin around here and our backs and our shoulders is often a really nice area of us so distracting from that upper arm part of us but obviously avoid cold shoulder because that is a really dated look remember if you're going halter neck you know go for a bra that is actually going to uh go with a shape of the top you're wearing so horset bra or strapless bra or whatever off the shoulder would be also a really good look as well because that's showing your skin it's youthful it's it's got that summer Vibe because you're showing your skin up here but it will often cover the arms another trick is distraction instead highlight areas of your body that you're proud of decide what are your best features and then show them you know if it's your legs wear shorts if it's your DEC col whatever it's called this area show it go for a low scoop neck top if it's your shoulders go off the shoulder wear halter necks you can use jewelry as a distraction as well bold earrings bold necklaces you could use bracelets to emphasize the slim part of your arm your wrist I love this Aura bracelet for instance from Anna Louisa this is you know it's about the right is is the boldest width I could go without my arm looking big it's waving your arm around and you're waving your bracelet around and there as you talking to people they're looking at this they're not looking at here well I hope they're not anyway that's the theory that is the theory as I said Bolder earrings are going to draw the eye upwards and bold necklaces luckily are also on Trend at the moment and if you've got a wonderful waist use belts avoid front them it's very very easy it would be very easy when we're thinking about covering up our arms to actually choose options that are sold specifically to help us in that area that often marketed to women our age and really to be honest they're going to make us just look frumpy and I'm talking here about Shaws a nice kashmina pashmina that's the word pamina slung around our shoulders like that that will work that's ageless but um many Shaws can actually just hang Loosely and drape and make our shoulders look undefined and that's why widens us and makes us look bigger and it is it is just frumpy those shrugs that um people put on um have the same type of effect we really want a bit of structure rather than going for these loose floaty type things that are sold um kimono avoid a kimono that's loose and unstructured yes it hides the arms but honestly it is it's going to often give you a frumpy look at tunic type um tops as well will do the same thing hide your arms but still age you and the whole point of actually wanting to hide your arms is so as we aren't aged I kind of sway myself on the side of actually aging Myself by showing my wrinkly arms than aging myself in old-fashioned frumpy clothes but what can you wear instead of those kimonos and those shs and things that are sold for that purpose well a long sleeve cotton shirt with the arms rolled up that is so much more useful than the sort of drapey materials that are sold on the resort at the elar if you would like to know a bit more about sandals and Footwear and what I'm going to be putting on my feet then this video will be useful to you
