Team your dresses with soft curls or waves, professional lash extensions and a fresh manicure and you'll be sure to be summer ready!
Combine comfort and style
As the mercury soars over the summer months, stepping out in an outfit that is both stylish and comfortable is key to keeping you looking and feeling effortlessly cool. Trade long sleeves and bodycon styles for loose, flowing silhouettes, barely-there straps and shorter hems, such as a feminine mini dress or elegant midi length. Complement your figure by opting for a style that cinches your waist before falling into an A-line skirt and finish the look with dainty gold jewels and a pair of leather sandals.

Keep fabrics light and breathable
Trade warm knits, cosy wool blends and denim for lightweight cotton, luxe linen and boho-inspired crochet pieces. These breathable yet quality fabrics are ideal for the warmer months, giving a put together look that can be dressed up or down whilst keeping you cool on hot afternoons spent enjoying the sunshine. Sheer lace and crochet dresses look stunning paired with an oversized woven hat and coordinating rattan bag.

Add some colour
Although a crisp white summer dress is an absolute must-have in any wardrobe, sunnier days and balmy nights are the perfect opportunity to explore bright colour palettes and experiment with prints and patterns. Find colours that complement your features and complexion, such as warm reds and oranges for brunettes and sky blues and soft pinks for fairer blondes. If you’re looking for a more understated way to add some colour to your look, choose a ditsy floral print in pastel hues and accessorise with simple hoop earrings and a tan leather bag.
Experiment with styles
From plunging necklines to structured bodices, off the shoulder cuts and asymmetric finishes, don’t be afraid to stray from your usual go-to styles and opt for something different. Try different styles to find what best suits your figure whilst making you feel incredible. For a piece that is as versatile as it is flattering, choose a coordinating two-piece set. The flowing skirt and crop can be worn together to give the illusion of a dress or paired separately with your favourite basics for a range of different looks.
