How To Style: a floral dress...



As spring is finally creeping up on us I have been starting to change out some of the items in my wardrobe in the hope that the English weather will finally start to become nice again.
So I decided to start up a series of style how to's where i would show you how I am styling these items for the spring/ summer.

I thought I'd start with the basic...floral dress. For me when it comes to spring and summer I like my style to be easy and low key but with a 'I tried but not too hard' sort of vibe. To do this I teamed the floral dress with a casual denim shirt, which I would wear with the sleeves rolled up probably, just to give it a more seasonal feel.

I then went for pretty neutral accessories, with a combination of different bangles as well as some black and rose gold coloured rings, which give the look a little more depth.

To finish I chose nude flats, which I know will be making a very regular appearance in my posts because for me they are just the easiest things to slip on in a hurry, and are comfortable for the whole day which is just what you need during summer.

So this is how I would style my floral dress, what would you guys do?

How to style...nautical stripes

nautical style stripes

So, this style of outfit is something that I see as a classic summer outfit that is wearable every year because of it's simplicity. The main focus is of course the nautical stripes which can be worn however you personally choose, I tend to go with a jumper or t-shirt, but it's really personal choice. I then chose mint shorts to add another colour into the mix but this style of outfit also works great with darker shorts which bring out the colour of the stripes. As for finishing touches I went with blue boat shoes because, well it is a nautical theme after all, but pumps work just as well and chose a nude bag and a pair of sunnies just to top off the outfit and tie everything together. 

How do you style stripes in the summer?
