this is the part where i declare war on everything

why in the name of whatever deity you choose is the world full of three-quarter sleeves these days?  wtf, ladies?! -- are people, like, encouraging this?!  i want long sleeves, dammit, and i can roll them up if i want them to be 3/4 length!  (i want long sleeves with french cuffs, actually, but i'm prepared not to get too grabby.)

GRAR.

Because 3/4 sleeves are meant to be the thing for large arms, per the What Not To Wear girls. For some reason, the crop look on arms is completely different from the crop look on legs.

I love the 3/4 sleeves deal because I have unnaturally long arms, and everything is going to look too short on me, so it's better to look as if it's intentional.
