Default Bolero shrug

OK, so after lots of weight loss (wonderful!) I've found my upper arms have loose skin (less than wonderful) which doesn't look its best in a dress.

I've found a stretchy bolero shrug to be so handy to have. It doesn't ruin outfits, is quite flattering, easy to roll up and squish in your handbag and very affordable if you buy online.

There is HEAPS of them on ebay (an example is http://www.ebay.com/itm/360417790558...#ht_1003wt_918)

but click around and you might find more bargains elsewhere.

I agree with you Marmaduke, Boleros are definitely the way to go! They look so stunning on and seem to go with everything. I have 5 - 6 of them in my wardrobe. I am incredibly impressed you found Boleros at such a decent price!!! Thanks for sharing!

Absolutely thanks M........arms are a 'huge' issue for me, always have been even when I wasn't big, and now, well lets just say Kyle Sandilands would have a field day with me and my 'tuckshop lady arms' if I were on Australian Idol!!!!!!

Anything to cover them up........they look good M.

Glad you like them too. They are such a staple part of my wardrobe now, and I have 6 different colours. Hooray for internets!
