This summer alternative to the little black dress which is otherwise known as the LBD, is the little white dress or LWD. The little white dress is similar to the little black dress in respect of its simplicity, versatility and ability to flatter but it is also fresher and cooler which is perfect for the great weather that we are experiencing this summer. Lets face it, as much as we all love out , they can sometimes get just a little bit boring. Little white dresses can work equally well as sexy evening dresses, day dresses or anything in between. They are also particularly good for the summer as they really show off a great sun tan.

As amazing as the little white dress is, there are a few things to bear in mind when wearing one:

How see through is it?

White fabric is notoriously see through and so when buying a little white dress it is important to consider how see through it is. Check it in front of the light to be sure. If it is see through, it is not necessarily a problem just consider carefully what you wear underneath it.

Does white make you look pale?

Pure white clothing can make some people look quite pale. Fake tan and a little extra make up is the perfect way to combat this problem.

Keeping it clean

A Little white dress needs to spotlessly clean for maximum impact. Unfortunately white will show up just about every drink spill or speck of dirt. There are special products on the market that can be used to renew the clean, fresh whiteness of your dress.

How to accessorise?

When accessorising a little white dress steer well clear of white accessories (including shoes) as they will just look too much. Instead look for dark brown or brightly coloured accessories. A pair of wooden soled clogs or leather sandals will look amazing and if you want that boho look tan leather always looks great.

For a romantic summer look, try  a little white dress in lace or broiderie anglais which is very on trend at the moment. For the evening a body con white dress is a daring option or you could choose a white dress with frills. There are so many different white dresses to  choose from.

linen hankerchief dress by Goddiva

This linen hankerchief dress by Goddiva is a really on trend version of the little white dress with  a very flattering shape and unusual front zip fastening. It can be dressed up with heels or down with gladiator sandals for either evening or day time.
lacey lace dress by Boohoo

If you really can’t wear white this lacey lace dress by Boohoo is the perfect alternative. Its ivory colour is pretty close to white but slightly more flattering for some colourings. It is also romantic and pretty with tie details at the sides and a net trim on the skirt.

satin applique floral dress by AX Paris at Oli

If you want a simple style of white dress to party in, you will love this satin applique floral dress by AX Paris at Oli. It is a classic shift dress in jersey and has a beautiful satin applique and bead design on the front.

The Motel Betsy Dress is the perfect dress to add to your summer wardrobe. The dress is from the fabulous new summer collection by Motel Rocks.

This unique Betsy Dress from Motel Rocks is a great summer holiday dress and is flattering for any shape. The dress is made of two key parts. First the boob-tube style bodice with a sweat heart neckline offers a super cute look with the practicality of added support due to the stretchy smockback detailing. Whereas the skirt of the dress is very different with a soft and floaty full circle A-line skirt ending just above the knee in typically Motel Retro style which is so very trendy.

As with most Motel Dresses, The Betsy Dress comes with an amazing choice with sizes from XS to L, and a number of bright summer colours and patterns for almost every occasion.

Summer dresses have always been really popular clothing for the summer months. They are pretty, feminine, cool to wear and very stylish but recently there has been a new trend for jumpsuits and playsuits that is almost rivalling the popularity of the summer dress. Jumpsuits and playsuits,  also know as “all in ones” and “onesies” are equally as versatile as summer dresses. There are plenty of styles available from smart or more formal styles, to vintage and retro, pretty florals and bright colours. What will you be wearing this summer – dresses or jumpsuits or both?

Jumpsuits and playsuits are in some ways as practical if not more so than summer dresses. They are like summer dresses, a ready made outfit that needs little or no co ordination making getting ready in the morning quick and simple. They are great for those times when you will need to be quite active or on a windy day when  a summer dress is just not practical. There is how ever the issue of going to the bathroom which can be tricky with either a jumpsuit or playsuit but if you can put up  with this small inconvenience then they have a lot to offer.

Jumpsuits can be great alternatives to sexy evening dresses or party dresses. Just as you would choose a sexy evening dress in a luxurious fabric perhaps featuring draping and eyecatching embellishment, you can also choose  a beautiful full length jumpsuit in a glamorous style. Instead of party dresses you can wear jumpsuits with pretty ruffles. The shorter playsuit styles are perfect for the daytime and as special occasion dresses and there are also great casual options which are usually made from jersey.

Some ladies worry about whether they will be able to find a jumpsuit or playsuit to suit them but this should really not be a problem as long as you follow the usual style rules that you apply when wearing a dress. So if you have a larger tummy that you want to hide look for a jumpsuit that is loose fitting around that area. If you are an hourglass shape, cinch in with a belt and if you have large hips and thighs look for jumpsuits with straight or boot cut legs and wide necklines to balance the hips out.

Maxi Dresses are all the rage this summer and are the perfect summer dress for casual wear or can be accessorised up for any formal occasion with addition of gladiators or killer heels and some well placed jewellery.

The Paisley Maxi Dress from Yumi Direct tops the lot in the fashion stakes. This beautiful feminine floaty Maxi Dress is a great addition to your summer wardrobe. It’s perfect for almost any body shape as it elongates and slims the body and the plunging V neckline with thick halterneck straps adds interest aswell as makeing this maxi dress slightly different and comfortable to wear, and is especially forgiving the girls with a larger bust.

The colours of the Yumi Paisley Maxi Dress are bright and vivid and will make you the belle of the beach this summer. The paisley fabric is a throwback to the 70′s, definitely retro chic which is again is a hot trend this summer. The Yumi Paisley Maxi Dress has an empire line common to most Maxi Dresses, but the underbust decorated sash is ribbeded in that same style as the shoulder straps with a slight frill which again offers a flattering silhouette to this wonderful dress.

If blue is not your colour, then perhaps purple is more your cup of tea? full of rich purple and red hues, an ideal colour for a summer dress infused with oranges and yellows giving it a tribal feel which is a gain a big trend this year.

Both Yumi Paisley Maxi Dressare halter neck. the shoulder straps are 52 inches from the shoulder to the floor and are in white to compliment the under bust sash and trim detailing at the bottom of the dress. The Yumi Paisley Maxi Dress is a snip at only £29.99 and comes in one size which fits from a size 8 to 14.

Transitional summer dresses is a curious term and perhaps something that you may have heard stylists or fashion journalists talk about, but you could be forgiven for being a little puzzled about what it actually means. In the sense of fashion and clothing, transitional usually means an item of clothing that can be worn year round. A transitional summer dress therefore can also be adapted and worn in the spring, autumn or winter.

As we move into the late summer, it becomes clearer why we might want to buy clothes with this transitional character. With possibly only a few weeks of hot and sunny weather ahead of us, it would make sense to buy a summer dress that can also look great for autumn and winter.

Generally, those of us who have a transitional wardrobe or lots of transitional items in our wardrobes as opposed to seasonal items, can afford to spend that little bit more on our clothes and invest in great quality. That is not to say that we shouldn’t have a few gorgeous floaty summer dresses for example a strappy maxi dress, that will only really work on the hottest of summer days but it is also great to have a number of classic items that will also work all year round.

Of course in the spring, autumn and winter, you will need to be warmer than in the middle of winter and one of the secrets to transitional dressing is layering. Take your summer dress, wear a thin top underneath and tights for the autumn and spring and a cardigan and even leggings for the winter. Transitional clothes are great for those in between seasons when it is too cold for summer dresses but too warm for thick winter clothes.

Why not invest in a transitional summer dress or two. Here are some of the things to consider when shopping for them.

Colour

The colour of  a transitional piece of clothing is vital. It should not look too summery or too wintery but somewhere in between. Colours like greys, browns, navy, black and beige all work well and can be brightened up with a bright top or accessories which is appropriate for the season.

Fabric

Transitional dresses should be made out of a fabric that is not too thick or too thin. A mid weight fabric will not be too floaty in the windy autumn or too hot in the summer.

Style

Styles that allow layering are ideal. Thin stretchy jersey tops work really well for layering bit also consider thin knits. You can add a neat cropped cardigan to almost any dress to make it suitable for cooler weather. Also simple styles of dress like a shift dress allow for a top to be layered underneath. You can also wear ditsy print summer dresses with opaque black tights and a cardigan for an on trend winter look. You would be surprised at how many summer dresses look great when teamed with black tights for the autumn or winter why not give it  ago.

This V Neck Maxi Dressis  a great style that will take you from summer to autumn with ease. It is a great alternative to the strappy versions which would only really work for summer and it can easily be worn over a long sleeved top.

null

This beautiful floral dress could work equally well for summer with bare legs and sandals or winter with grey tights and a cosy cardigan.

 null

This striking Jacquard Shift Dress will look great worn over a long sleeved black top or body and with black tights for the winter.

With the summer weather being just as it should be, beautiful and warm, maxi dresses are one of the best ways to look stylish and keep cool. They are not only a must have item for the season but they are also becoming a classic piece which will last for many seasons to come, due to their ability to flatter and cover a multitude of sins (including those of the chocolate biscuit variety). They skim over stomachs, hips and thighs with a flattering empire line for a elegant and feminine look. The great thing about maxi dresses though is their versatility. They look great for everyday wear with a pair of gladiator sandals, they are an essential for holiday and can be dressed up with heels and a clutch for parties or more dressy occasions including weddings.

Maxi dresses for this summer are in a range of bright colours, neutrals and rich floral patterns, there is definitely something to suit everyone.  A a great price, you can’t beat Little Mistress for some stunning summer maxi dresses on available from their brand new website. They are literally flying off the rails at an astonishing speed. Little Mistress is definitely one of the brands to be seen in this season and they are currently offering a 10% off when you open an account with them. Their maxi dresses feature a range of other hot trends for the season including bright florals, vintage lace and animal prints mixed with florals.

The Floral Maxi Dresses

Florals are definitely big news this summer from bright tropicals to more subtle ditsy prints. Nothing says summer like a floral dress and they look amazing teamed with tan coloured leather sandals and a denim jacket (if the weather isn’t too hot). To really work that Boho look and festival fashion add a flower clip or hair band to your hair.

Mixed Animal and Floral Print Maxi Dresses

The contrast of neutral animal prints with bright and colourful florals is the perfect match for a really eclectic and eye catching maxi dress.

Neutral Maxi Dresses

Navy and nautical summer dresses always look chic and stylish and never really go out of fashion, but this year they are really on trend. A nautical dress can include a simple navy dress, a striped dress or a dress with any number of nautical details or naval inspiration included sailor collars, shiny gold buttons and epaulettes. Nautical dresses combine crisp fresh colours with that feeling of being by the sea perhaps in Monaco, St Tropez or on board a luxury yacht. Part of the appeal of the nautical trend is it simplicity. Navy is also a universally flattering colour, so much more easy to wear than black but just as slimming and versatile. The summers nautical trend takes inspiration from sailors, the navy and military influence as well as having just a hint of fifties glamour. Nautical summer dresses work so well for casual day wear but can also be glammed up for the evening with some heels and a clutch bag so slick on some bright red lipstick and pile on the gold jewellery for one of the most versatile and chic looks of the season.

Classic Stripe Jean Dress by Motel

Motel have a  great range of nautical dresses for the summer featuring blue and white stripes on simple styles of dress. They illustrate perfectly how nautical stripes can be used to create curves or balance out wider hips. Stripes worn on the top of the body will make this part of the body appear wider and therefore make the hips and thighs look slimmer if covered by a dark blue skirt  as in the classic stripe jean dress pictured above.

nautical-stripe-sun-dress1

Thin diagonal stripes are probably the most flattering way to wear the nautical striped dress as it lengthens and slims the body. This nautical stripe sundress by Oasis is light, cool and perfect for the beach or pool on holiday.

red-white-and-blue-nautical-dress

If the whole navy and white nautical trend seems a bit too low key for you, bright red makes the perfect accompaniment for a really eyecatching summer dress. This Faith 2 in 1 nautical dress by Boohoo looks as though it is a separate top and skirt but is really an easy to wear dress.

stripe-nautical-dress1

This unusual  stripe nautical dress by Rare Fashion ticks almost all of the nautical trend boxes including stripes, red accents, and military buttons but it is also individual and stylish.

navy-white-stripe-rope-dress

This navy white stripe rope dress by Dorothy Perkins is very nautical and perfect for the yacht club with its rope tie neck. Just team with some navy deck shoes for a great casual outfit.

Nautical and striped dresses are perfect for the summer not only because they are cool and fresh looking and very chic but the stripes can also be cleverly used to flatter and compliment different body shapes depending on where they are place. Create curves with all over horizontal stripes or slim the torso with narrow diagonal stripes the choice is yours.
