Anne Boleyn may have been the woman of the green sleeves referred to in the song Greensleeves, though no one knows for sure. Anne did have a unique sense of style and popularized a type of sleeve that gets wider towards the hand and is long enough to cover part of the hand. This type of sleeve was favored by Anne because she had a slight deformity on one hand that may have been an extra fingernail, though some sources claim she had an entire 6th finger.
