Hello Lovelies!
So it's that time of year again... Summer! I think nothing symbolises the season to me like the purchase of a new dress, and I'm always on the look out for a colourful creation that will last me throughout the warmer months. This pretty pink design from Esprit instantly caught my eye - I love how it could be dressed down with a pair of stylish (but comfy) sandals for a day spent sight-seeing around your favourite city, or even for a relaxing picnic at a local park. It could then be easily dressed up with heels and sparkling accessories for an evening spent at dinner, enjoying a cocktail (or two!) and maybe even a theatre show. Being the lover of Polyvore that I am, I couldn't wait to create this outfit. Add a sun hat and a cider in one hand, and you'll be set for a stylish summer!
Oh, and let's not forget about a jacket, right? Around this time of year, I especially love it when the weather is warm enough to venture outside without a coat! Of course, living in Scotland the weather can be a gamble so it's always a good idea to carry a cover-up just in case it gets chilly! I think a denim jacket is the perfect item to throw in your bag, as it's almost always guaranteed to match every summer dress in existence - the two just work together so well!
What's your favourite item of clothing during summer?

I love a good dress purchase more so than any other article of clothing, too! Personally, I'd go for maxi dresses, but this midi one is so pretty. Denim jackets definitely work for every summer dress and it's such a staple for the warmer months! Loving the shoes you've chosen, too!

My favorite summer clothing item would have to be a kimono. They're so flowy & work as great layers. :]

I'm waiting for the weather to cool down again so I'll pick up a denim jacket for myself. We're having a crazy heatwave now so I'll melt if I attempt to wear one now.

Cute picks. I love that hat and any Marc Jacobs perfume is good in my books.

Very cute picks. I like the idea to use berry shades (which are usually associated with autumn) in combination with nudes. Very classy and mature styles. Love it x
