What to wear with this dress to cover my arms?

[IHopeYouStepOnALegoPiece]

I'm cautiously branching out into wearing a dress for my birthday next month (I own 42 pairs of jeans, that should give you an idea of how I normally dress...)...though I'm not entirely confident about it!

I'm not confident enough to leave my arms uncovered but. No idea what would work....am a size 26/28 if that helps!

TIA

Get a bright pashmina or a silk scarf in complementary colours and drape over your arms/tops of shoulders so hangs down the inside of your arms.

How about a little cropped black jacket? I'll see if I can find a link.

Depending on the colour of the dress, a blazer style jacket, lots of different colours around, can get cropped (3/4) sleeves so cooler, and will also look really good with one of your many pairs of jeans too!
