Arm toning

Hello!
I managed to lose over 50 pounds and keep a majority of it off even after having a baby. My question is, even though I lost a ton of weight, my arms barely got any smaller. For example, I lost over 7 inches in my waist and I lost maybe an inch off my arms. I ran, did toning exercises everything I could think of. I am super self conscious about them as they don't look proportionate to my body, especially when I was at my thinnest. I know they say over all fatloss is the key to losing arm flab, but that obviously didn't work for me! Any tips or advice on how to tone them up?
Thanks in advance.
