Summer Dresses for Those Who Love Neutral Colours

Summer Dresses for Those Who Love Neutral Colours

If you’re like me, wearing bright colours just doesn’t really do it for you. 90% of the time I’m wearing black, the other 10% I’m wearing neutral colours. I’ve tried wearing bright colours, but revert back to neutral colours, mostly black. In my opinion, neutral colours never go out of style, so it’s a great way to build a long lasting wardrobe. It’s not that I don’t love bright colours, I do – but just not on me. So here are some of the dresses I favour for summer.

The go-to black dresses. You can rarely go wrong wearing black, so why not stock up on some classics to build up your long lasting wardrobe. I know black isn’t the best ‘summer’ colour, but if you pair it with elements of browns and lights, it makes a great balance. Not to mention, you’ll always look like a badass wearing black, it’s true.

The white or cream peasant style dresses are a must for summer. They scream summer holiday and look so great with flat leather sandals. They’re also work appropriate, but can be transformed into a perfect beach dress simply by adding a floppy hat.

Neutral prints will make your wardrobe fun and playful. They can easily be transitioned into fall dresses with some tights, boots and a cardigan.

Finding the right dress can be painful, but looking for the right items that you’ll wear often and wear for a longer time than just one season is key. Look for timeless items that you can imagine in your wardrobe for many years to come.

Enjoy the summer! xo
