I've never been a huge Shade shirt fan. I don't love the material, always feel kind of bulky when I'm wearing them, & no matter what size I've tried, the arms always pinch {I do have chubby arms though, to be fair}. However, I wear them because sometimes, they are just a necessary evil. But now- I ordered two of the polished cap sleeve t's {in black & ivory} & they just came in the mail today. I am s-o-l-d. Sign me up as the Polished Cap Sleeve spokeswoman. The material is thin enough that it is discreet & not bulky, soft enough that it feels like my favorite pair of sheets, & the arms are actually comfortable. I'm hooked {& also need to order another one or two in white}.

These are nice.

have you tried the bodysuits? I am wondering if they have them in that same material because it sounds nice. I haven't tried them but sometimes I get tired of the long shirt peeking out at the bottom of another shirt, or the bunching up under a dress...
Ok, but how do they wash? That is my big test. If they wash like they were never actually washed, I'm sold.
I wore my pink one today...
By the way, I love that you knew which picture was our "engaged" picture!!! What a great moment.
I am SOOO excited to see you :) Pretty nervous about the run...
oh good to know. I have two shade shirts, but one of them pinches at my arms too...the polished cap sleeve sounds better. I'll have to order some when I get back to the US. Thanks!
Heidi, I haven't tried the bodysuit- I've thought about it (the concept is good), but the thong-garment combination might just be... awkward.
And Jen- I haven't washed them yet. I'm wearing one today. We'll see. I'm thinking delicate wash.
Kera- I'm WAY too excited. And I can't wait. Even for the run. We will do JUST. FINE. Seriously.
What do you wear it with? Under stuff? I like the baby t of their's, but I only have one. I should get more since I'm a jeans and a t-shirt kind of girl. My baby t washes really well.
Bodysuit + g's doesn't sound ideal.
I wear them UNDER stuff- shirts that are too low, arms that are too "flowy", fabrics that are too sheer, dresses that are too "wide"... G's are complicated.
