Cap sleeve: This little sleeve covers the top of the arm to about the mid-bicep, making it a great option if you don't want to sheath your entire arm.
Off the shoulder sleeve: The sleeve covers the upper part of the arm while leaving the top of your shoulders exposed. Stylish and sexy, this sleeve allows you to flash a dash of skin, without worrying about upper-arm wobble when you wave.
Three quarter sleeve: This modern sleeve hits your lower arm in-between your elbow and your wrist. It's less constricting than a full sleeve, but still gives you all the benefits of completely covering up.
Wrap: If you are comfortable with strapless, but want a security blanket, toss a chic pashmina over your shoulders. For summer, try juicy sherbet shades on for size (green, blue, pink or tangerine); for fall, stick with dark, dramatic hues (red, eggplant or bronze). Another option is to have your dressmaker create a wrap in the same fabric as your gown to create a perfect match. For a winter wedding, go ultra-glam by trying a fur (or faux-fur) stole on for size. It will keep you warm and looking simply smashing!
