Warm Those Arms

Interesting superimposing of Leonardo da Vinci's Study of Arms and Hands onto a page of from a dictionary by Collage-O-Rama.

Due to a lack of omniscience, I have no idea really what the weather's like where you are, but we seem to be experiencing a mid-winter thaw here. The snow that once was laid thick and firm on the roof like deep-pile carpeting is now sliding off from the warmth, landing on the ground with at irregular intervals with a very undignified *thud*. It's probably not going to last, but the warm-up is nice.

However, the one not-so-nice thing about it is that this heat wave (relatively speaking) is playing havoc with my wardrobe. See, it feels warm enough to get by with just a short-sleeved T-shirt, but as I have often been told, feelings are not the same as facts. The fact is that it's still not quite warm enough for that, so I end up giving up on the short sleeves and reaching for the longer-sleeved ones instead.

This is why I should really invest in arm warmers. Particularly the fingerless ones. Then I could get away with wearing a T-shirt and I wouldn't have to spend so much time rubbing warmth back into my forearms. And it stands to reason that if I'm thinking that arm warmers might be a good thing, others might think so, too.

And we all know that means, so let's get to it, shall we?

C'mon--just look at how thick these arm warmers are. You can't tell me that they wouldn't keep your arms warm.

Of course, if you don't like your arm warmers that thick, you could always go with something a little thinner like these. They're prettily embroidered, too.

I'm not sure what it is I like more about these arm warmers; the colors or the buttons. But I will say that both them together really make them absolutely lovely.

Okay, alright--these aren't arm warmers; they're fingerless mittens. But I like 'em, so ON THE BLOG THEY GO.

But to make up for them, I would like to put forward these awesome little cupcake arm warmers:

Yes, I may be a sucker for cupcakes, but you gottta admit, they are really, really cute.

See you Friday!
