Grey Maxi Dress

How would you wear this grey maxi tee dress?   I love the idea of pairing it with a black hat and long pendant as shown and I'd also add either several thin silver bangles or the cool bracelet below with the multi strand coil effect.    Top the look off with a simple black clutch purse and I think you've got a look that will make people notice you without looking like you're trying too hard!
Of course you might like to wear this maxi dress in a totally different way in which case I'd love to hear your thoughts below.

How to Wear Jeans

Everyone has a pair of denim jeans, but we all wear them differently.  I wouldn't be without a pair, in fact I won't tell you how many different pairs I have, we'll just leave that to your imagination!

I've selected a few Polyvore sets to show off ways of wearing jeans -

Daisy Denim



I do love the casual denim and t-shirt look, but the jeans and lace top is also a great look and come the weekend when off to watch sports a sports top of some description with a pair of jeans is almost mandatory!

Just in case you need ...... or want...... another pair of jeans check these styles out -

The Classic White Shirt - A Summer Staple

There's just something about a crisp white button shirt that says summer, it really is a staple and there's a very good reason why.    A white shirt is very versatile in what you can wear it with, how you wear it and what style you want to convey.

Check out a few cool choices for your white shirt -


Classic White Shirts
SABA, Wish, Marks and Spencer, MICHAEL Michael Kors
The classic button up (or button down, but that's a whole new conversation!) white shirt is always a great look for summer and...

Now you've decided on a shirt or two, exactly how do you plan to wow with it? Loose and unbuttoned over a bikini works well as does buttoned up under a colorful print trouser suit, basically it would appear as though there are no rules when it comes to this summer's white shirt.

In case you don't believe me then check out some of these celebrity slideshows featuring ..... you guessed it ....a white buttoned shirt.   From leather shorts to long jeans and everything else if this doesn't give you ideas then nothing will!

Red High Heel Shoes

There's just something sexy about red heels - I can't explain why, but every woman should have a pair of red heels in their wardrobe to make them feel irresistible when they slip them on.

I can still remember my first pair of red high heels, can you?

Here's some sexy red high heels just in case you need some new ones -



There's just nothing like these red shoes to add an extra 'vroom vroom' to your outfit!

Denim Shorts

How Will You Wear Your Denim This Summer?
Current/Elliott, Rusty, Dorothy Perkins, Vero Moda
Denim shorts are a must have this summer whether you choose cut offs or turn ups, but how are you going to wear them? The...

You know that the white lace top is a must have this summer and it does look great with a pair of denim shorts, but there are lots of other looks which also look great with denim shorts as you can see above.   I love just throwing on a t-shirt for a casual look that doesn't take much effort, but sometimes you want to dress them up with a 'prettier' top, gold anklet etc.

Which look suits you best?

First of all you have to decide on your denim shorts of course and there are lots of different lengths and styles to go for so (like with jeans) choose one that suits you best as if they suit you then they'll last more than one summer as a staple of your wardrobe.

The Little White Lace Top

The white lace or crocheted top is set to be a must have item for this summer's wardrobe.   It's simple and looks adorable especially when teamed up with denim.

Annalee + Hope Women's Crochet Top with Blouson WaistCheck Price
There are lots of different styles of these tops to choose from and you really have to think what else is in your wardrobe before purchasing one.

This Annalee + Hope top for example would look great with a pair of cut off jean shorts, a skirt, skinny jeans etc. However if you're investing in a pair of dungarees or denim overalls then this top wouldn't quite look right!

I do like the waist though, especially in early summer when the extra kilos winter's delicious hearty foods have deposited on my middle haven't totally gone!


The best style for myself would definitely be the one above, but if I could get a pair of denim bib overalls that suited my figure then I would be inclined to go for something more like the selection below.   I must admit that it is hard to choose just one of these tops though so it may be a case of a couple for me - what about you?

Don't think for a minute though that this top will take the place of the classic white shirt that is always a staple in a summer wardrobe as they will continue to be a key piece of clothing for summer 2014.

Black Maxi Dress

Maxi dresses are great for summer and summer 2014 sees them as still being very in vogue.   I love the fact that you can dress them up or down depending on what you want to do.

Perfect for going to the beach or catching up with friends for a long casual coffee and chat at a cafe is a look like this one -

Black Maxi Dress - Summer Style
Seafolly, Lotus, Burberry, Missguided, Kate Spade
Maxi dresses are so in this #summer and there's a good reason - comfort and style in one dress - awesome! Team your #maxidress...

It's casual, but not too casual for coffee with the beautiful clutch and Kate Spade bracelet for a little bling factor.

There are lots of other cool maxi dresses to choose from, but if you're only getting one then black is a good color to go for as you can wear it in the evening with gorgeous heels and a more dramatic hair style, make up and jewelry or you can pair it up with flip flops, sunglasses and a beach bag.

One look that is pretty cool is the black and white combination in a maxi dress so if you want to invest in another one as well then check these ones out .......
