As I touched on in my last post, navigating what to wear in this prolonged heatwave can be something of a minefield, particularly if you’re trying to balance keeping cool with work appropriate attire. As well as rummaging through my wardrobe (and in the process finding things I’ve not worn in five years or so!), I’ve made some strategic investments over the last month or so- snapping up pieces which are ideal for this weather whilst still leaning towards the smarter side of the style spectrum:
Dress- Arket
Sunglasses- Ray Ban (c/o John Lewis)
Bag- Cath Kidston
Shoes- Zara
I spied this dress in Arket way back at the start of the summer and it’s one of those pieces which I’ve been contemplating picking up ever since. I had a feeling that I might have missed the boat completely after it sold out online, but luckily it was still in stock in the Covent Garden branch, so last payday I took the plunge and snapped it up. It’s already well and truly proving to be a real investment buy, and is wonderfully easy for wearing in this warm weather. The print is lovely too, and I’m a huge fan of the shape as well- structured but still relaxed enough to avoid any temperature related style stresses! Definitely money well spent!
Have you invested in any new summer style staples?
