I can't remember exactly when it started, but in the summer, I really don't feel comfortable showing off my arms. Before the hot weather starts to show up in the forecast, I set out to refresh my closet with arm-covering pieces that I can't get enough of. I am now well-versed when it comes to this search, and I heavily rely on the "sleeve length" search filters of my favorite retailers to narrow down the tops and dresses that fit the bill.

This year, I have my eye on 40 standout pieces that cover my arms without sacrificing style. My roundup is full of short-, three-quarter-, and long-sleeved picks in a variety of silhouettes. Think everything from billowy sleeves to ruffles to formfitting styles, especially in cotton and linen to keep cool. Shop these incredibly chic, arm-covering summer finds below.
