Well if they’re staring they must like it, maybe you just have low self esteem, or maybe you had something in your teeth, but I bet it was the hot thing…

It could simply be inappropriate dress to have no sleeves, even on casual friday.

hmm, that may have been a little too casual even for ‘casual day’ the fact that the top was sleevless way not have been the probelm, but the material and style may have been what look out of place at an office envoirment. exciercise clothing isnt profesional enough for work.

or they thought it wasn’t very tasteful.

I think sleeveless shirts are fine…

I mean, girls at my school get to wear them, I dont se how showing your arms is inappropriate.

I dont have a problem with it, but certain places maintain dress codes like this.

I doubt it, it sounds to me like they just thought you lookjed nice/diffrent/interesting

are you social with your co workers?

this is am example of a sleevless top that would be appropriate for a office envoirnment. its not the showing arms that is the problem, its the fact that what you wore as you described it; a sleeveless tops you wear to gym or for doing sports.. this is not somthing you should be wearing to work! in the furute choose clothing that is more profesional! =)
