We’re told that the shirt dress is going to be a trend item this year. We say it’s an absolute classic. It never dates, so it’s a great time to invest in something that you’ll wear for many seasons to come.
Here are our tips for getting the most out of your shirt dress.
Most people have black in their wardrobe, some have little other colour in there. But it isn’t always the most flattering of shades, particularly as we get older. It has a tendency to cast shadows around the jowls and highlight fine lines and wrinkles.
So what shades can we introduce into our wardrobe in place of black?
White is white right? Wrong. There are over 1,000 shades of white to choose from and some will look better on you than others.
We treat this colour as a neutral because it really is remarkably versatile, and can be worn tonally or teamed with virtually every other colour there is.
Keep it real and embrace the throwback with the 70s Fashion trend this Summer. Famous icons from the 70s are Sissy Spacek, Joni Mitchel, Cybill Shepherd, Carley Simon, Brooke Shields.. There’s no escaping a certain decade this season, with 70s prints and chunky platforms currently flooding the high street shops. Earthly tones, paisley printsall and flared trousers/jeans simply scream seventies. Why not add a shot of glamour and you’ve nailed this summer’s hottest look. Think a blousy kaftan, a print slip maxidress or just make it simple and get a pair of the flares and you’ll get the picture.
