Hello and welcome to my latest blog! This week I am focusing on summer dresses and I have ten dresses to show you of varying colours, styles and patterns!
First of all I have to apologise for this weeks photos, my photographer aka my boyfriend was not well so my tripod and I had to go it alone and let’s just say some pictures were more successful then others, normal service will resume next week!
On to the dresses….
Dress one
Dress one is a mini shirt dress from New Look in this pretty floral pattern. It is currently down to £7 in the sale and there are a couple of sizes left. If your size is not available they have it in a pink version as well. ASOS also have this from Miss Selfridge with a similar ditsy floral pattern, so cute!
Dress two
Dress two is another one from New Look that I picked up at the same time as the first one. Just realised I bought these in February, I was obviously expecting a heatwave! This dress is actually sold out now but I have found similar, on ASOS this Stradivarius dress is a similar colour combo just with long sleeves. The other option is also long sleeved which I think is probably better for the current weather conditions we are having! H&M airy dress.
Dress three
Dress three is a Zara sale bargain, I think it was £5 and is of course out of stock now, it also has pockets if you can’t tell 😂! Looking at the Zara website they have this similar style dress is a green and black colour combo. On this page they also have a good selection of alternative dresses to have a browse through. Missguided also have a dress in a super similar floral pattern and it is a flattering wrap style that is lovely.
Dress four
Dress four is a beautiful blue colour that I love! The smocked top of this dress makes it super flattering for most body shapes, it is also a bargain £12.99 and actually still in stock in some sizes 😳, here is the link. This dress is also available in white.
Dress five
I am obsessed with the periwinkle colour of this dress, when I got it I may have googled periwinkle clothing in an attempt to fill my wardrobe with this colour! This is from Monki in the sale and still actually available in some sizes, here is the link. It is also available in a classic black.
Dress six
Dress six is an ASOS one I bought as one to potentially wear on my birthday last year, as my birthday is November it was definitely wishful thinking! This Silk Fred dress is a similar style to mine just in more of a khaki green colour. I have also found one on H&M which is definitely more evening wear in a lovely emerald green, it’s a pleated style which I think can be very flattering.
Dress seven
Dress seven I expect everyone has seen a hundred times over at this point as it is part of H&Ms meadow collection that has been super popular. It is actually currently still in stock in some sizes so I have linked it here. It also comes in a couple of other floral patterns, white with small flowers and white floral.
Dress eight
Dress eight is another one from the H&M meadow collection 😬 I couldn’t resist the bow detail at the back! Hoping I will have somewhere to wear it at some point! There are a couple of sizes left in the cream. I have linked the patterned one here but when I last checked it was completely out of stock. I have also found this beautiful dress on Karen Millen that is similar to the H&M one with the ruffles at the top.
Dress nine
Dress nine is one I have shown you before, in my spring pastels blog. If you missed that I will link it here. It’s a super easy just throw it on dress that you could style in loads of different ways to get you from spring to summer. It is Wednesdays Girl on ASOS and they still have a couple of sizes left. I have found a couple of alternatives both from ASOS, firstly a long sleeved version of mine in a slightly different green and a thicker cord material. Next a longer version in a smock style.
Dress ten
Lastly dress ten is another one I have shown before in my ways to style my Vivienne Westwood handbag blog. This was a Zara bargain sale purchase that is now out of stock. There is this alternative on Nasty Gal with a cute collar detail, Nasty Gal have some really good discounts if you time it right you can sometimes get 50% off. I have also found this poplin dress on Zara that would be a good alternative.
That’s it for my summer dress edit, I hope you have enjoyed reading! I have actually had a couple of new summer dresses arrive over the last couple of days so if you want further details of those be sure to check out my Instagram where I will be styling them shortly @whatkatyworenext_

See you then
