Doll, be careful with the high weight low reps your arms will bulk up super fast. I say this because I am also very slim/skinny about 43kg and if I do weights of ANY kind I get very muscular, it's odd. The best things I have done to keep lean is:
Yoga, skipping, hula hoop and callanetics -spelled wrong I know.
Even doing arms circles with arms out straight in both clockwise and anti-clockwise directions, and of varying circumferences, tones up the arms something chronic without bulking them.
But by far the best for me is skipping, which is an extension of the circling exercise. If you do so with the armbands then it should be noticeable in a few weeks. Side effect of circling and skipping is building up the chest wall, so that can't be a bad thing!
