As the season starts to turn, I’m desperate to start wearing my summer gear. Right now the shops are full of floaty dresses, yet we’ve a whole month of chilly
British weather remaining.
There is even talk of snow!
Wouldn’t it be wonderful if we could adapt our spring/summer looks, to start getting wear right now?
Well, fear not.
Here’s how you do it………………..
Layer, Layer, Layer.
A slip under a dress (always a good addition - try charity shops), a thin roll neck, wooly tights - Get layering underneath your dresses.
Make friends with knee-length boots.
A good pair of classic boots will “ground” your floaty dresses and skirts, making your outfits more casual and “daytime”.
Wear it belted or loose. Push up the sleeves and show a little cuff underneath.
Add texture.
Another great way to casualise your dresses, getting more everyday wear from them.
You can hide a multitude under a maxi!
Leggings will add a hidden warmth, just add trainers or ankle boots. You’ll be toasty all day!
So, that’s how to extend your summer wardrobe.
Wear all your clothes, all year round!
