queer eye for the straight folk

0A. I watched queer eye for the straight folk and heard one of the Fabulous 5 say ,"01i00This sweater fits you well in the arm."02i00 I asked one of my American friends if I could say that, he said it's not correct, that no one would say that. I am really confused. 02br
02br
00B. If someone asked me,"What did you do this morning?" Can I say,"01i00nothing, just reading some books02i00?"02br
00Thanks for your help:) 0-
