Get Ready for Summer: 10 Secrets to Hiding Upper Arms! 🌴🌞🌴 

I love your dry sense of humor😄 I wear a lot of 3/4 sleeves to hide the old lady arms (70 yr old), and I am fine with that.

Love the video and your attitude.Remember those arms are great for hugs ,picking up babies and lots of things

I love it but never see these in stores

Your arms aren’t even big….they look great! But thanks for all the tips for those of us who really do need to cover up our arms.

Wearing a thin loose layer in the sun actually helps to keep you cool 🤓 I loooove that second one so airy fairy 😂lady tricks. I’m here for all the lady tricks

I have a drawer full of Lost River popcorn knit and tissue knit shrugs and toppers in many colors to wear over sleeveless tops. Basically like mesh or netting material. Made in Bali. You can just roll them up in a ball so great for travel.

Your arms are lovely! Just you wait until they become flabby and wrinkly and veiny, that's what my arms look like, and it's come on very suddenly in the past year. I once heard an ageing expert say that there is usually one year when you really age and this has been it for me. I am 58 years young and I always looked younger than my age without trying - until this year. Just comparing last year's selfies with this year's and I really noticed a huge change, also on my face, lots of dry skin, many more wrinkles/fine lines/beginnings of wrinkles and a very droopy jawline, swollen lymph nodes in the neck, etc. Ironic really when I've finally achieved my ideal slim weight after decades of trying. But I am OK with my body and kind to it, much more than I was when I was younger

So much fun, beautiful Diana! Personally, I think you have gorgeous arms and fab hair. Don't change a thing. You are perfect.

Everything is looking fantastic! And, fabulous! Cheers 🥂 to puffy arms!

Great Tips and I love your messy Bob ❤it's a much Younger look rather than a Neat Tidy Bob !

You look beautiful in all of your outfits!

Not too worried about my arms, I do have cute ways to cover up though... Truth be known... I just like watching you... You make me chuckle and I mean that in a good way... Thankyou...

Even if point was cover arms, this was also about beautiful looks!

Love your video! You are as cute as can be with all your outfits. Thanks!

"Find yourself something sparkly and lovely..."🥰 LOVE everything about the first example. Color, style, SILK... YES!! Really good, doable tips. I'm always on the lookout for just these styles. I've never really liked my arms exposed even at a very young age. 🤷‍♀️ But I'm with you. The jersey coverup is yuk...and so true that it does look like a blanket you've thrown on to cover it all up! Not the look I'm going for lol thanks, Diana😘

I love all these outfits!! I think the types of outfits you wore in this video are better than the ones in your thrift haul videos because they are more practical and realistic. Your tips are also very good in general, even for people who aren't insecure about their arms. I learned a lot from this! - Izzy

Not related to this video - - but I wanted to share my closet hack with you as a co-lover of scarves. I have on my closet door inside a shoe bag that holds maybe a dozen pair of shoes or so but instead of shoes, I put scarves in it, then I can see all of the organized weight and size so like all of my bandannas that I use with T-shirts and or to cover my hair are in one pocket and then silky, short scarves, silky, scarves, etc. thought you might appreciate this

We don't need to cover our arms. Keep it real ladies. Be proud & love yourselves ❤

Our summers are too hot for most of these, but the silk cover ups are excellent...

I found chiffon sleeves only that is kind of a tube that goes across a sleeveless top. It’s kind of chiffon or silk. You put your arms in and you have sleeves over a sleeveless tank. My tanks are beautiful and I want to wear them but with the sleeves. These tube sleeves fall on the back higher up , the sleeves are full with elastic at the cuff so they can be slid up to be 3/4 sleeve or long.

Gauze would be a good fabric.

What wonderful options! Loved them all! Thanks!

LOVE LOVE LOVE!!!! I wish I had all of these, in size 2x🎉

Love your approach and your attitude! And I agree that you are adorable!

Thank you I love the.cover ups

I just witnessed pic of my arms and was appalled. Thank you for helping me avoid what honestly did seem like the solution Love ya

Wow, you blew my mind, thanks for all the great ideas.

I also think our upper arm expectations are unreasonable. Another practice is to go out and look at real life upper arms all around you. You'll probably be pleasantly surprised. Unless you're looking at weather ladies. They have great upper arms. It must be in their contract . :)

😂Omg yes I'm convinced! Loving your videos!

If you think flabby arms are unsightly wait till you’re 70 and bruises strangely appear on your arms. My arms were pretty good until then. 😂

😘You're the 👑Queen of Confectionery Cover-Ups. Bits of frothy, feminine glamour. Highly enjoyed your range of ✨️sheer & sparkly✨️ tops & toppers. Terrific tips to mask our arms. I'm in love w/your originality & dramatic flair, esp. w/bold colors & prints. Will have to live vicariously through some of your delightful theatre🎭. Know my limits😔. Would be highly 😈tempted to buy some of those remarkable pieces, but these gems likely would remain unworn in my closet😂. 😎Bulky arms or not, sleeveless is my preference once the mercury rises🌡. My few sheer LS tops are usually saved for cooler weather when I can actually tolerate wearing sleeves. Fussy, fabulous yokes & sleeves are very limited in my wardrobe too. 😊Do love the drape & coolness of soft, rayon fabrics, but the silhouettes need to have some structure. Have a vertical stripe gilet that hits below my hips, a couple of checkered ones, & an abstract print maxi gilet that are staples in my 🌞Summer closet. Also have a handful of solid short waistcoats as toppers. 🤔Perhaps I could handle some of your shorter toppers, but the longer kimono style robes are way too bohemian for me🤣. Given a trio of sheer gauzy tops (bubblegum pink w/subtle vertical white stripes, green gradient, & orange gradient) w/loose ¾ sleeves. Don't mind their weight, but the blouses are too long to leave loose & become bulky when tucked. ✂️Not sure if I want to crop 'em or split 'em down the middle to turn 'em into a light topper. Meanwhile, will use your ideas of a scarf, pretty necklace, or bold lip👄 to distract from my arms. 💚Bridget from Cali☘️ (using my pal's YT acct)

Great video. You are adorable.

Another great video - Thanks Diana 🙂

Good ideas! ❤ it! Thank you :)

Adorable, you. Thank you for the inspiration.

Ok, well you’ve definitely talked me into silk cover ups lol

I'm a normal, average older woman, but I enjoy being thoughtful about my clothes. Always have. I've never used a jersey coverup, but I am prone to use flowy tunics to hide my lack of figure at this age. But after your video, my thinking changed to wearing attractive fabrics instead. I sew. I came away with got some fun ideas for our hot, humid summers in SE coastal Georgia - where tank tops and sundresses in summer are the uniform.

Love your videos! You give such great tips and have a wonderful attitude and energy. :) Never thought of using sheer shirts this way. When I see them, I just think I'd get cold but ofc in a HOT weather they'd be great.

Love your videos... funny and great advice

I love those lightweight blouses 🥰 I have slim arms but I do not like the tank top style! I just like the look better with long sleeves

PS There’s a Canadian company that makes Sleevie Wonder? Forget what they are called shepherd somethings if anyone finds it let us know!

Thank you

The polyester coverups are hot. I only like rayon or cotton. They are difficult to find.

Love your video - you're fun to watch and I learned some things! No, I'm not bored. Thanks for the options, now I need to find some of these options!

Perfection!! ❤

Im convinced 😊

you're hilarious, I subbed

U have beautiful warm skintone, how about dropping some of the black clothing and pic up some warm colors? The one from Zara is good but u can handle more strong colors for contrast. Oranges , browns , warm greens. Ah who am i,😅just saying😊tks.

You're incredible and so are your videos

An open front or button from crochet top with sleeve down to or almost down to the elbow has the potential for a lot of air flow. For cooling and even drier underarms. It will obscure the arm shape just enough. Even better if close to your own skin time or hair tone.

SO BEAUTIFUL, you have super-great ideas! and you’re truly model material ! I took notes and I’ve never tried RED lipstick, I usually do clear lip gloss! But, i’m way older than you - i’m 66

One of those tops looks like a sheer curtain from the 60's, definitely, no way!

I'm letting my bat wings fly. I've earned the freedom

I agree that the jersey ones are not flattering. So what do we cover up with in winter?? If you actually DO have large upper arms, sweaters are NOT your friend… help.

I'm happy to say I've never owned one of those jersey things! I usually add a sheer cotton gauze blouse, a cotton button up, or a cashmere cardi. Have you done a video about hiding a tummy?

Where can I find that top with flowers around the collarbone...I love it! Off the shoulder look at 4:12.

I have this issue because I pick at bug bites and it's pretty bad..thanks!

I have a great collection of unusual, irreplaceable graphic t-shirts and when my arms became flabby I found this way of still wearing them without showing my arms. I wear them under (denim) shirt dresses: I leave some of the top buttons undone so the t-shirt graphic shows underneath, it's a simple but cool look that I don't see around. Or instead of the (denim) shirt dress, just wear under a (denim) shirt - again just leave some of the buttons undone at the top so the graphic t-shirt shows underneath. Or simply wear any top under a pretty cardigan - I'm not sure about wraps, especially those with large flowery patterns, they're ageing imo, you never see younger people wearing them.

❤❤❤

How can one wear anything but linen and cotton in the summer. Anything else you will sweat bullets.

😊❤

you are such fun! where do you fid such cute tops?

You are a lovely young woman and your arms are fine. Trust me on that one. Lol….when we are young we all are so critical of ourselves. Then when older you realize how crazy that was as then you do have the bat wings.Lol…. Thanks for reminding me of the pretty cover -ups in my closet. xo

Our upper arms served us well for many years. Why should we now be ashamed of them? Aging is part of life. Enjoy your health and your golden years.

You are beautiful and so are your upper arms -don't hide anything !

What wording do you use, to find those silk coverup item, that you wear at the start of the video please?

I don’t like long sleeves. Do they make coverups in 3/4 or short sleeves?

Where can we find all these cute things for purchase?

Tip: when buying a t-shirt, choose one with sleeves that are not clinging to your upper arms, i.e. with a slouchier fit. Or wear t-shirts/knits, etc. with slightly longer sleeves almost down to the elbow. Another option is to wear a (black) cami under a sheer black long-sleeve top - sexy and chic.

Would help to know where you got these

Great ideas I just hope that nothing is made of polyester !!

If you have very fat upper arms, you usually need something that stretches, thus the jerseys. It's very hard to find silk or other natural fabrics that have large enough arms and that don't make you look huge everywhere else, even with a belt. Stretchy is how I handle it. BTW your upper arms are not big or fat or flabby. How about having a model that actually has this problem so we can see how your solutions actually look on the real thing. Thanks for trying though.

😱Jersey cover ups are my mom uniform… Any tips for affordable silk cover ups?

I’m here because I have one old-lady looking inside of my upper arm where I had 2 cancerous breast lumps taken out of my armpit.

You are precious 😊

Your videos are fun! However, there is absolutely nothing wrong with your arms. 😊

Mine are flabby arms

Where do you find these types of coverups please?

Hmmm..very nice look BUT silk in hot weather is HOT, it does not breathe

I laughed, I related, I have added things to my Amazon cart 😅 thank you!!

You are a young, beautiful woman and I'm sure you don't have any crepe skin. Wait till you're 68.

Apologies

Why?

You're arms are good..others need to work their arms..a little a day.

I'm confused. Why would you hide your upper arms? Is it to avoid sunburn? 🤔

You are soooo beautiful...

Dont hide them! Work them out!!!❤

Binge watching murder she wrote and realized she never shows her upper arms!!!!

Lovely items, but they are not practical or affordable.....

I don't know what age audience that you are targeting, but red lipstick on someone in there 70's, is clownish, and people in their 70's are the ones that want to cover their arms. All these tips are lost on me.

I see no reason for YOU to hide your arms!

You are perfectly beautiful....from head to toe.

Why suffer pondering what others think of you ? The second sheer shirt will make those of us with a significant breasts look pregnant at the age of 50, 60 etc.

Your arms are not big at all!!. In fact, the camera usually adds weight to your body in photographs, so your arms are must be even thinner then on this video. I find it hard to believe that you feel the need to cover your arms. Geez, your arms are just fine.

You should look in the mirror sometimes.

This is not rocket science and she is making it into some kind of fashion epiphany. Most of the blouses and tops were not stylish.and the scarf with the billowing blouse was ridiculous . Wear 3/4 sleeves and forget all this foolishness.
