Share your beautiful summer dresses

[NasiGoreng]

Walking around my town yesterday I saw lots of women in lovely summer dresses. I am sick of looking scruff in jeans and T shirts.

Share with me your beautiful summer dresses (not too expensive) that you have bought or you are coveting.

I have this on watch as I'm desperate for summer inspiration, so I'm no use at all!

My favourite so far, it's lovely on.

Oh I love a summer dress. So comfortable to wear in the summer. I'm a big fan of Boden summer dresses and also Joe Browns. I'm coveting this:

www.joebrowns.co.uk/sp+beach-party-dress+wd807?coloursel=A probably best for the beach however.

I also have loads of Boden Jersey dresses and several like this:

I'm also sitting on my hands with regard to this one as I already have absolutely loads of dresses and don't need another one www.joebrowns.co.uk/sp+delicate-blue-dress+wd803?coloursel=A

I have this had to size down as it's huge. I'm 5'9" and it's the perfect length.

So do I but I don't you get too hot in viscose in the summer? I think I'm getting old now, as I go to buy things check the label or the fabric content online, then don't buy it.

Same with t-shirts for my DS, TU Sainsbury's you in particular why only 60% cotton in boys tees? It's horrible, I know it's saving money but it's sweaty.

I saw some great Joe browns skirts but mostly viscose too. I've ordered one to try it out as it's everywhere.

I've stocked up on midi skirts and tie front tops. I'm on the chunky side and find these flattering. Not keen on showing lots of leg so these are perfect

Catdog, the subject of viscose came up recently, which I didn't get around to posting. I am fairly converted to viscose, and I am usually a bit of a sweaty Betty! I used to be a cotton T shirt type, but prefer different styles now, and there is a lot of viscose about. In the main in our weather it's ok, but on an extremely hot day I'll go for cotton/linen and in a light or white colour if I am in the sun.

I think I need to go shopping ♥️

Both are absolutely lovely on, I am loving the green at the moment!

I’ve just bought this: m2.hm.com/m/en_gb/productpage.0766435001.html

Not beautiful, but practical and I like the colour.

Its on sale and I fancy something bright.

I ordered this today, they do the same style in different fabrics and the same fabric in a few different styles. It’s cotton

This is WAY more flattering than it looks, doesn't crease and is so comfy, it would be lovely with a denim jacket (on my list!). Good colour range too.

And I got a fabulous red shirt dress from Sainsburys about six weeks ago, no longer on the website, but they have 25% off at the mo and loads of choice.

I am 5 foot 4 long dresses do not suit me! I don't like anything wrappy/cross over/low cut as I don't have that sort of curvy figure and my toddler will pull it down and expose me 😂

I like mid length dresses tea dress or skater dress style for casual and a more fitted mid length for more formal

I’ve just bought this one and very happy with it

Well, there is no hope for me as I dislike almost every dress on this page :(

Shame @Gwenhwyfar - you can always get yourself to the shops and browse for yourself...

I have ordered this

www.warehouse.co.uk/gb/clothing/dresses/leaf-%26-leopard-midi-dress/0347087612.html

And have also been buying a lot of midi skirts like this
www.warehouse.co.uk/gb/clothing/skirts/leopard-print-midi-skirt/035042.html?dwvar_035042_color=04&cgid=skirts

I'm delighted there are so many midi skirts around this season. They're so wearable.

deccax love that warehouse dress!

I bought this other stories dress yesterday. It's absolutely exquisitely cut, and so beautifully made!

I bought this yesterday from Warehouse (£36), and can see myself wearing it a lot.

It comes up large though, so you might need to size down.
