While yesterday was more about swimwear inspiration, today is more towards holiday and city style. Whether you are going interrailing, exploring cities or simply you want a comfortable but pretty outfit in the summer, then this frill bardot dress is one to look into. This beautiful boho number comes in sizes 6-22 from Next. It has a delicate elasticated waistline and tie detailing which is just enough to add definition to your waistline. A perfect addition for a wide range of body types, specifically apple, pear and diamond shapes as this will give great shape and balance to your frame. If you are unsure of what body type you are, then check out my ”What body type are you?” section.
Light pinks and ashes of roses shades work so beautifully with tans and suedes. I matched the look with an oversized boho suede satchel which is brilliant for holding all holiday essentials with you in a bag! For added comfort, suede ankle boots work really well with summer dresses like this. Pretty sandals and lace up effects in tans or light colours would work equally well, but for city style I’m definitely more of an ankle boot kind of girl.
Over the last while I have paired back in jewellery opting for just a key piece instead. Looking to investment pieces means you definitely get that extra mileage out of your choices. Today I’m wearing a beautiful layered watch and bracelet combination by Folli Follie. They can be worn separately or layered, but since I’ve put the two together I keep wearing them as a set. I’ll be heading to the South of France next week so they are going in my jewellery essentials as they dress up any outfit while being just enough ‘bling’ for me too.
