I think it's very common, and it's ridiculous it's so hard to find cute short sleeved items. It's easy to say don't let it bother you but not very practical. I am not often in a hot enough place to merit sleeveless so I actually don't care too much when it's finally hot enough to strip down, even though I have stretch marks from chemo steroids on my upper arms and saggy skin because the steroids made me blow up. I am not as self conscious maybe because my whole body is a scar battlefield lol! Not that I am without vanity, it just shows up elsewhere I think. I love the idea of the dresses at markets, we have nothing so fun where I am! A cottage in a wheatfield sounds pretty scorching, I am sweating just thinking about it! I think a little r&r on the Cote D'Azur sounds nice! 😊
