Elbow length sleeves - Page 5

I love them. My favorite.

What I don't like are loose, flowy, flappy or bell type sleeves. Just awful for me. I like a close fit. If it looks like wings, I don't want it, LOL.

I absolutely love elbow length sleeves and also ballet sleeves. It's just a fresh look besides short sleeves. Everyone is different.

I'll have to Web search Ballet sleeves. Sound tres chic. Love elbow sleeves when they are slim, but not too-too tight (as in sweaters), or too wide (as in tees).

'More or less', 'Right or wrong', 'In general', and 'Just thinking out loud ' (as usual).

I hate elbow length sleeves.

I love elbow length sleeves. They are flattering for those of us who might have upper arms we need to cover. I specifically look for them too.

I'll choose an elbow length or a cap sleeve over short sleeves on a blouse. I like T-shirts with short sleeves but I dislike short sleeves on buttondowns especially.

@ROMARY, Ballet sleeves are just below the elbow. JJill sells this look.

Kat: Thank you. Ballet sleeve length would be very chic. Maybe Isaac will read this and perhaps offer a ballet sleeve top or sweater?

I hate them. I think if you look at a woman from the back with these on, it's very unflattering. The elbow is emphasized and not very attractive. No, my arms aren't perfect, but I work out my biceps regularly (and other parts which are harder to improve) and I feel fine in a shorter sleeve. I will wear a cap sleeve or a regular short sleeve. I think elbow sleeves look matronly. I do not plan on covering every part of my body that isn't perfect, but I try to stay in shape.
