Hey fashion lovers! This post is all about my favourite 3 chic dresses to rock this summer. Dresses are evergreen pieces; always in vogue especially in the warm summer months where we can show off a little more skin. If you are looking at adding a few new pieces to your wardrobe this summer, I would highly recommend chic dresses. They are super easy to style up and down, and I usually find them super comfy to wear when it gets really warm. I have recently been eyeing some stylish dresses on the high street. Here are a few that really caught my eye this summer season –

River Island Black Mesh Spot Frill Midi Dress

This stylish piece. by River Island would be a fab wardrobe addition this season. I love the simple and chic design. It would look fab with some black heels and handbag. This dress can also be styled down with some white sneakers, if you prefer casual looks like that. As at today, this piece goes for £43 and it comes in sizes 6 -18. Do you like?

Boohoo Plus Cerys Retro Print Smock Dress

This stylish print smock dress by Boohoo is another eye candy. I love the simple dress a lot! It is also an easy piece to style up or down, which is a plus. The easier it is to style a piece, the better. The last thing anyone would want is to buy new accessories for every new piece. This dress also looks really light and comfortable, with the loose fitting style and breezy fabric. This piece is currently on sale for just £9 (55% off at the moment), and it comes in sizes 16 – 24. I really like the light price tag. What do you think?

Roman Abstract Print Maxi Wrap Dress

This beautiful Roman wrap dress is definitely one of my current favourites (and my daughter’s as well) for the summer season. I love the butterfly kaleidoscope print, with flared short fluted sleeves and crossover v-neckline. This dress is beautifully designed and it would complement my existing wardrobe perfectly. I can already picture myself rocking this dress with strappy heels and a matching clutch. It is such a beautiful dress. You can grab one for £45 right now, it’s currently on sale (35% off) on the Romans website. It comes in sizes 10 – 20.

3 Style Tips for the Fashionista

August 21, 2022 By fashionandstylepolice in Fashion Tags: 3 Style Tips for the Fashionista, Fashion and Style Police, Fashion and Style Police Blog, Fashion and Style Tips, Fashion Blog, Fashion Bloggers Cheshire, UK Style Blog 2 Comments

Fashion trends are always popping up. There is a never-ending trend of new styles to keep up with and fashionistas all over the world know all about the struggle. The struggle can be so real when you have a bank balance that doesn’t match up with your quest for new clothes and accessories. Keeping up with the different stylish trends is great but what is even better is sticking to your signature style in the midst of the noise.

There are certain style rules every true fashionista should follow. You don’t want to get caught up in following every current fashion trend. It is okay to keep up with fashion so your wardrobe stays fresh and current, but you also want to make sure you stay true to your style at the same time. Here are 3 style tips for the fashionista to keep in mind:

Shop for clothes in the right size

This is a very important style tip. It is important you shop for pieces in the right size. The last thing a fashionista wants is to have a wardrobe filled up with pieces that don’t fit right. Baggy or overly tight pieces would mess up most looks, so ensure you shop for the right size in the right store. Sizes mean different things in different stores, so double-check you have the right sizes before you shop.

Go for styles that flatter your body shape

Not every style you like would suit you. Sometimes we may find certain styles really trendy but they may do nothing for our body type. It is important to always go for styles that flatter our body shape regardless of how stylish we may find them.

Never follow trends blindly

I mentioned this point earlier but it is such an important tip and I am going to mention it again. With fashion trends popping up every now and again, it is important to make sure we don’t follow trends blindly. Staying true to your signature look is more important than shopping for every new trend. A true fashionista would go for timeless pieces that would be in vogue for seasons.

So there you have them; my 3 style tips for the fashionista. What do you think of these fashion tips? Do you have a tried and tested style tip to share? Please sound off in the comments section below. Thanks for reading. Have a great day.
