    theres lots of tops that are thin material with long sleeves. both plain, which you could wear under other things, or patterend/designed in themselves. Also zip up sweatshirts... not sweatshirts like they will make you hot, but again in the thin material.

    There's chiffon (sp?) material, but that can be pretty see-through.

    You can get really nice light white cotton tops with long sleeves that are really cool. Also light cotton cardigans with vest tops?

    You could wear a long sleeved top under a t-shirt. I do that. Mind you it's pretty boiling.

    I wear long sleeves all the time - long-sleeved t-shirts or shirts open over strappy tops - but people have started asking questions. :(

    :( it is difficult. If i have no cuts on my arms then i'll wear a t-shirt. Im getting to grips with the fact they're always gonna be there. But i always cover my wrist with a sweatband or bandage.

    One of my friends who has very ur... "unique" style wears these black things over her wrists all the time.

    They hook round the thumb and extend to nearly the elbow (like a long glove without the hand) but are made from black strectchy cotton like what socks are made from.

    But nobody questions it as it fits in with her style anyway so people think it is merely a fashion statement.
