First of all, you need to find a shirt that fits your shoulders well, which means that the armhole seams of the shirt should rest at the edge of your shoulder.
You need to take a measuring tape to measure the lengths, it would be better to get a fabric measuring tape. It is because the fabric measuring tape is easy to turn and gives proper measurement.
Once you have got a fabric measuring tape, place the one end of it below the nape of your neck which is in line with your spine. Take the other end and place it on the top of the shoulder seam, and record all of these readings.
Take one end of the fabric measuring tape and place it at the top of the shoulder seam, and place the other end at the break of your wrist or the wrist bone. Just as a shirt sleeve let the measuring tape end drape a bit.
