How do all those stylish people have their sleeves rolled so perfectly? Here's how!

Believe it or not, there is a method to rolling your sleeves, it's not just about pushing the sleeve up and folding the fabric on itself. No, it's about making it look effortless without making it look too styled. And, because the weather is heating up and we're all fanning ourselves over the citrus tones that are hitting the shop floors, I thought I'd share with you exactly how a stylist rolls her shirt sleeves up.
