How to Style a White Dress – Styling Tips

Everyone needs a little white dress in their closet. Its versatile, chic and a classic must have for every girl. You can pair it with some bright accessories for a day out in the sun or with metallic accessories and a light jacket for an early dinner with your friends.

A white dress gives you the room to get creative. You can pair it with anything you like a chunky bracelet or just a bold red lipstick.  1-archanasm-50 For instance – You can either pair a skater white dress with a black leather jacket and open toe boots for an edgy look or pair it with tan accessories like a belt and wedges for a casual look. Rock the effortless look at picnic in the park by throwing on a colorful scarf and sandals. If you are not big on accessories like bracelets and earrings then just add a pop of color by carrying a vibrant colored clutch and break the monotony.

For a sporty look you can pair up a white shirt dress with a pair of slip on shoes and a denim jacket and for a classy look you can pair a lacy white dress with strappy white sandals and a bold red lipstick. There are a million ways you can dress up a white dress. Check out how I chose to dress up my white dress from Jack Wills.1-archanasm-52It’s a fit ‘n’ flare dress with a pleated skirt and a cross over back. This piece is a classic with a light floral design. It is one of the most versatile outfits in my closet. I styled this outfit with a navy bag, black strappy heels and metallic jewelry. Gold or silver jewelry looks subtle and chic on a white dress. I wanted an elegant look so I lightly curled my hair and applied natural makeup and just focused on adding some color to the outfit with a bright lipstick.

Like I earlier said you can pair white with almost anything in your wardrobe. From brown to navy colored accessories or metallic jewelry to tassel sling bag you let your imagination run wild when it comes to styling a white outfit.

Finding the Perfect Summer Dress for You

dressesLadies, it’s summer dress time. We all have our favourite two or three summer dresses, that until recently have spent far too many months lurking at the backs of our wardrobes. Break them out, by all means, but just in case you’re looking to treat yourself with a new summer frock, then here’s our guide to the latest and greatest styles to get you inspired for summer.

Japanese

Japanese is so totally in right now. Whether it’s kimonos, Japanese-style flower print or traditional Japanese silhouettes, it’s all hot to trot. Embrace your inner Orient this season with something a little different.

Shirt

Shirt dresses are every girl’s dream. Easy to wear, easy to accessorise, and ultimately the very best of casual summer wear. They are well and truly back with a vengeance this season, so buy it, belt it and work it!

Tunic

Tunics are perfect for that effortless just-threw-it-on look. Whether you’re at the beach, by the pool, swanning around town or just pottering at home, tunics are every girls dream when it comes to looking effortlessly chic.

Shift
There’s absolutely no denying that shift dresses are downright fabulous. Alas, though, certain figures just don’t work with them. If you do have a straight up and down figure, though, then go for it. Shifts are classic and timeless, but have made a real statement and have a high street presence this season.

Denim
The 90s are back, and so is denim. Denim everything. Denim dresses do, of course, come in all shapes and sizes, so there’s absolutely no excuse not to add a statement denim dress to your wardrobe this year.
