Carry your style on your sleeve: 6 Sleeve trends to follow this year

Even though we have not been able to dress up and go out of our houses in a while, fashion trends have continued to flourish and rage. From co-ord sets to monochrome looks to soft dressing, a lot of fashion trends have made their way into this year. Another fashion trend that is storming right now is exaggerated sleeves. Your sleeve plays a major role in how your outfit looks. The exaggerated sleeves style is very versatile for women who have skinny as well as plump arms as the sleeve has the ability to work as adding more volume and also take away from the curves and give you a tall look.
