One was when they just switched factories to Vietnam (last year) and one was holes in my very favorite pair because I was rough and grabbed them and yanked them up, there are literally small holes where my fingernails punctured the fabric. People say to treat them like pantyhose and roll them up your leg instead of pulling or yanking. I have not had that issue in other pairs but I also try to be more careful now.

That being said, when Lularoe first started making Irma, the sleeves were a lot smaller than they are now. Perhaps you got a shirt from before they redesigned it to make the sleeves bigger?

I got it, and liked it, that is until I tried it on. My arms barely fit the sleeves, but the torso area fit fine. I feel like the incredible hulk, one flex and it will rip. I wondered if maybe it was a fluke, but you mentioned you have "big arms" and that you liked Irma. Can you elaborate on whether or not you've encountered this issue before? Maybe it's like the leggings that sometimes differ a bit in sizing. It's past the time for exchange anyway I've deleted the person's name and contact info, so I'm stuck with it for now. :-( Thanks again for your review.

I always got TC before and they are long so I always get "panty hose crotch" when I wear them. Even if I pull them up to my boobs! I was scared of trying the OS since I'm normally a 14/16, but they fit! I DO have thinner legs, I'm not bottom heavy (I carry my weight in my tummy) so I'm not sure if that's why. I was nervous that the patterns would get too stretched and look funny but they don't. Even if they do in some spots, they are the spots that are covered with a shirt (tummy and butt) so I don't care. As long as my lizards don't look like dinosaurs around my thighs, I'm good.
