Tops or cardigans with long sleeves are fantastic,so long as they don`t stick on your arms like cling wrap.Three-quarter sleeves give you lengthening illusion.You might want to give sleeveless garments a shot too.It`s drab to cover up from head to toe like rice dumpling.Drape a shawl around the shoulder if you are uncomfortable showing too much skin.
