Having a light weight Summer dress to chuck on in both formal and informal situations is an easy and clever option to have stored away for times of fashion despair. This particular dress leans more towards the formal side but can easily be transformed into a casual outfit when paired with some chunky boots or flats as shown.
The t-shirt style is what makes this dress so summery and casual. The thin belt allows a figure to be seen without labelling the dress a body-con or skater. The more formal elements are the pattern and length. You can never go wrong with stripes as they always seem to make a piece of clothing appear classier and more formal. The length also adds to the formality with a midi-style drop hem.
The material of the dress is what makes it summer appropriate - it's a thin, light material which is still of a high quality.
What attracted me to this dress was that it's so versatile and the design is so classic meaning it won't go out of fashion any time soon.
What's your wardrobe staple this Summer?
