Hi…. It’s been a while. In the meantime the weather has been warming up and it’s time to store away the winter clothes.

Although I love spring and summer and can’t wait to get my lighter clothing all out I do carry a certain degree of trepidation.

The issue with warm weather clothes is that my arms become more exposed.

Now I love my arms and they’ve served me well over the years doing lots of lifting and hugging. But … they have been sun damaged. The skin is brittle and loose while bruises and marks show how hard I’ve lived at times. No matter how much moisturiser I slather on the wrinkles remain.

So I’ll be looking for clothes that give my mature arms a softer line, that can flatter and protect while allowing me to stay cool in the heat of summer.

This Harris Scarfe Off the Shoulder top is perfect for older arms and allows the wearer to stay cool

At $27.97 it is a good buy.
