Just stated my bold opinion as you did."I think all short sleeves and elbow sleeves should be taken off the market entirely " I see far too many pits- parts of pits than I care to see- men and women .Ladies fixing their hair, taking off sun glasses or puting them on their heads , fixing their baseball cap, putting on lip gloss etc.

I love long sleeves and bell sleeves, also ruffled. I have never dunked them in food.

Got a email from Q for the upcoming Isaac TSV.....Peplum top again!! LOL

I like the different sleeve trends...makes tops interesting...I only own a few different ones...like most but not all look good on me...nor are they practical.

I prefer a basic sleeve without all the ruffles, bells, chiffon, etc. I am still seeing lots of sleeve details in stores and online, but I am not seeing many cold shoulder tops this year. I can still find tops I like; just have to look a little longer and harder to find them.

How can someone not like sleeveless at all? That seems very extreme to say few people look good in them. I think lots of people look good in them. I guess I'm not fixated on armpits.

I'm not a fan of those huge bell sleeves. They get in the way.

Preface--I am not really a rabid, opinionated fashionista, just medium opinionated and completely non-influential.

I do not like any of the goofy sleeves so prevalent now. Elbow sleeves look as if you are wearing a mens' shirt; I almost always fold up regular "short" sleeves to make them shorter. Don't care for "cold shoulder", bell, ruffled, or any other alternative to regular sleeves.

While I'm at it--I really hate high/low, handkerchief, trapeze and any other trendy hem alterations. I prefer longer (tunic-length) tops that cover crotch/derriere when wearing leggings or slim-leg pants.

Necklines--I really LOVE boat-neck, but these are pretty rare except for Susan Graver. D&C has one every now & then but aren't really boat neck in my opinion. I do not like V-neck or crew neck but will wear them occasionally if I like the color.

One last comment--why on earth spend 20 minutes at a time on a TSV? I mean really, how much can you say about a sweat shirt? Does this really increase sales? This is boring and I tune out.

Next post might be more positive;. I spend plenty of $$ at QVC, so please don't hate on me too much.

I like some of the bell sleeves, others not so much. I have a question for some of you. Where do you buy most of your tops/blouses? I have been on Shop HQ quite a bit, and it's about 60/40 luck. I do like most of their prices. I also buy from QVC, mostly my fav vendors like Kim and GILI and a few others. I also go on Amazon but not impressed with their tops. I have so so luck at small boutiques, but they tend to be expensive.

Any suggestions are appreciated.
