But, if you think this means that most pretty party dresses and sleeveless tops are out of reach then think again because we have the perfect solution.
A statement cover up will not only conceal your least favouite body part, it’ll actually make your outfit stand out for all the right reasons and we guarantee people will be complimenting you on it all night.
And although the extra layer will keep you marginally warmer as you shiver in the smoking section, these little gems are not a substitute for a coat so you most definitely cannot wear them instead of one!
So, give your trusty black cardigan a rest and stop hunting for dresses with sleeves because a statement cover up is your failsafe fashion formula this season.
