It's better to avoid sleeveless tops<\/span> <\/h2>

Sleeveless tops, especially those with thin straps, should be avoided when you have round arms. Same goes for the American armhole, tightened towards the shoulder. There's nothing worse in appearing as though you have a professional swimmer<\/a>'s shoulders.\u00a0\u00a0Generally, we avoid all blouses with\u00a0stretchy, iridescent, shape-hugging or balloon sleeves.<\/p>

Instead, create an illusion of slimmer arms <\/a>with something 'fuzzy'. The ideal is flowy\u00a0and flared, batwing sleeves. Also look for the\u00a0\u00be length, which visually refines the arm. These tricks also work well with large biceps.<\/p>
