This stylish and on-trend top will elevate your work outfits effortlessly

In the last couple of seasons, we’ve seen designers taking a huge interest in sleeves. We’ve got the statement sleeves, the extra long bell sleeves, and the oversized puffy sleeves. 

The interest in these dramatic details are not showing any signs of waning, and we are certain that this trend will continue well into 2017.

This season, the key feature on the sleeves is dubbed ‘the split sleeve’. It features a splice from the cuff up the sleeve, showing off your wrist and lower arm.

It’s dramatic, easy and updates your work outfit effortlessly. We’ve rounded up the best pieces here for your consideration. Happy shopping, ladies!
