I put Aveeno Cream on my arms and legs and they definitely improve the look of my skin.

I buy tunics that are made of cotton so I don’t get too hot. Usually with 3/4 length sleeves.

I try to buy tops with sleeves to just above the elbow. If I can't find one I sometimes resort to buying a lightweight long sleeved one and shortening them to the required length. Good luck!

I have a couple of very lightweight floaty duster cardigans which are cool to wear. Similar to the ones Sally Lindsay wears on Madame Blanc mysteries, but not as long.

Thanks everyone. That shrug looks like a good idea. I found it on eBay. Thanks 🙂🙂

I have a selection of colours of these ‘cobweb’ shrugs. They’re brilliant, so lightweight and scrunch up to nothing if you want to pop one in your handbag. Mine were from eBay.

I have a collection of camisole tops and wear long sleeved fine cotton shirts . I burn very easily so I’ve always covered up.

I wear a very lightweight shirt over a t shirt, I also have light open weave cardigans.

Due to health problems I’ve lost a lot of weight and hate how my body looks now. Lots of crepey wrinkled skin. How do I cover my arms without getting too hot in the summer. Looking for tips now so that I can buy a new wardrobe 🙂
