Hi there and welcome to Summer! The ladies from our Ageless Style group suggested we style sleeveless tops for our June collaboration. And that is a brilliant suggestion for this first week of Summer 2022! Unfortunately, many ladies have a few misplaced ideas about what is and isn’t appropriate to wear at a certain age. One of those ideas is, “I can’t wear sleeveless tops.” So what could be more enlightening than watching the Ageless Style group of friends and seeing their creative ways of styling sleeveless tops!
Well the idea of weathering the summer months and never wearing sleeveless tops is clearly not a good idea. So go ahead and stay cool while showing your bare arms. They are clearly a very important part of your unique body. Just think about it for a moment. These precious arms are so useful for the joys and jobs of everyday living and truly a blessing.
So let’s forget about the size, shape, coloring, or whatever we don’t like about our arms. And let’s concentrate on styling our favorite sleeveless tops.
How To Style Sleeveless Tops
First: Find a good quality sleeveless top that fits your body and lifestyle.
Second: One of the best ways to take attention away from certain areas is to add accessorizes. Eye-catching jewelry, hats, belts, and handbags are just a few ideas.
Third: Our goal is to divert the eye away from the arms.
Fourth: Shoes and hemlines bring the eye down.
Lastly: Remember to enjoy your day and your look!

Yes, I love this Rosemary. Our arms have served us well, and it’s just silly to think we have to cover them at any age.
Great bag too!!

When we stop and think about it, it is amazing how we shame ourselves into being uncomfortable. And age really has nothing to do with it. We must stop comparing negatives and re-enforce the positives!

I love this little top! One of my most worn sleeveless tops is white because it works so well with everything. And I love when they have a nice flow especially in the heat! All around an outfit I would wear in a heartbeat.

Hi there Mireille,
As you may have noticed, I am so hooked on whites this season. They are so comfortable and easy to style with a multitude of different outfits!
Rosemary
I would not be happy if I couldn’t wear sleeveless tops in the heat! Very cute outfit!
Hi Michele,
Thanks for stopping by today.
Sleeveless tops and dresses are a necessity for Florida living!
Rosemary
I agree 100%! You put together a lovely outfit too.
Thank you so very much, Joanne! I am so happy you liked today’s outfit!
Rosemary
I agree! We should embrace the arms we have, not cover them up. This is such a chic summer look! Love the breezy vibes!

Great job styling yours. Those pants and that bag are fabulous!
Thanks Cathy!
I enjoyed your sleeveless post demonstrating the different ways of tucking our tops.
Rosemary
Rosemary, you look fabulous in this outfit with or without accessories. But, what wonderful tips you’ve given! I’ll have to see if I do that unconsciously! Isn’t it interesting we both mentioned how we use our arms?

Marsha,
Thank you for your kind compliments. I am sure you do unconsciously use these tips. It is wonderful when we learn to embrace the uniqueness of our bodies.
Rosemary
Beautiful outfits, I love that these are perfect for summer!

Lovely Rsemary, you always look so good! And yes to our arms that have helped us hold tight, close and cherish our most precious ones. And helped us carry all that we have:) You look amazing and I love the hat too xx

Sherri,
So happy you are enjoying todays post!
Thanks for sharing!
Rosemary
I hate my arms but I’m stuck with them. Thanks for the great tip about eye catching accessories to draw away attention. It’s too hot in summer to wear sleaves we need to be comfortable and confident right 🙂
Nancy,
The secret is no one is looking at our perceived flaws.😉
Did you happen to notice my thick waist and rounded tummy?🤣
Rosemary
I am late to the party but so happy I stopped by. This is my favorite outfit! Love the way you styled it with the straw hat/purse accent and a pop of color with the pants. Also, I just love your attitude towards baring your arms and your perspective on how to look at our arms and all that they do each day. Brilliant. Hope you are having a fantastic week!

So happy you enjoyed the post❣️
We all have odd thoughts concerning our bodies, but so thankful that it works beautifully for us.
Rosemary
Great advice, Rosemary! I’m not a fan of my bare shoulder (but it’s not age thing – I’ve always felt that way). I may need to reconsider.

Michele,
Remember no one has a perfect body and we all see our perceived imperfections. But no one else cares.
Rosemary
