Have you guys noticed lately...

[Guest guest]

Have you guys noticed the latest fashion trend these days are the

sleeves that hang WAY beyond the " normal " length of an average

person?!! So if they are too long for even an average person, then

what about US?!! Just recently I happened to try something on, and

I kid you not, the sleeves hung BELOW my knees!!! And there is no way

to try to roll them up, as there is nowhere for all that bulk of extra

material

(on us, we're talking YARDS, folks) to be redistributed! Then what if you

need to put a coat on over all that bulk?!! It doesn't happen easily.

Also,

one's dignity may even be lost momentarily when attempting this feat in a

crowded place.

It's not just the sleeves that are much longer, but jeans for both men

and women. For the trend in some styles these days, is to have jeans SO

LONG one either keeps stepping on them, or they drag...something many of us

have put up with for years. Who ever would have thought we were wearing

these latest trends in fashion, huh?!!

Still, there are those brief rare moments of shopping for clothes, I

would give almost anything to be able to just buy something off the rack

that actually fit like it does on the model, wouldn't you? ; )
