I don’t know about you, but I’m always looking for the perfect summer wrap dress. I find ‘summer dressing’ a bit tricky in general – my personal style relies on the art of layering, so during the height of summer, I find myself peering into my wardrobe and hoping for a miracle…
A wrap dress has always been a favourite of mine – it just seems to skim the body in all the right places, and feels like an easy option to throw on during the hot summer months. I feel confident in a wrap style dress, and it’s one of those pieces that I never seem to find myself tiring of…
I recently worked with Sézane on some Instagram content that featured this midi wrap dress – I love it in white, but they also do it in black! The black version would be perfect for the evening time with oversized gold loops and red lipstick. Add some strappy sandals and you’re good to go! The white is definitely a firm winner for me though – it’s just got that laid back ‘British summer’ feel to it that I’m endlessly trying to achieve…
I love how it looks with my Novesta shoes that I’ve been wearing to death – hands down the comfiest plimsole style shoes that I’ve ever owned. I love how chunky the sole is, and they are super practical for travelling in. I always take a pair of shoes like this away with me, it doesn’t matter what the destination is! They always come in handy…
The cut of this dress is just absolutely perfect. The floaty sleeves give it a real romantic feel on those summer evening strolls, whilst the adjustable waist tie feature allows for all the date night food babies to ensue. It’s basically my ideal summer outfit – I can throw it on last minute whilst my hair is still drying on the walk down to dinner…
And of course, a dress like this should always be worn with a little basket bag in hand – perfect for collecting shells, or for concealing the leftover bread basket contents…
