| Dress: £29.99, H&M (bought instore last week). Leather jacket: £295, Jigsaw. Espadrilles: Asos (sold out but buy similar from New Look here) |
I’ve been outfit planning for the blog recently, and noticed that all my new clothes seem to be white and cream (so you’ll be seeing a few more posts coming up). Although a tricky trend to try, I’m drawn to white at the moment – it feels whimsical and full of summer.
Try with a leather jacket to toughen up the romantic quality…and if wearing it on its own, look for dresses with pockets and relaxed hems and wear with flats or trainers – a far more modern way to wear a lighter hue. Also make sure the item is well-lined, and not see through – the High Street is getting much better for this and it’s worth spending a bit more sometimes to get it right.

Love this! I am also loving wearing white and cream at the moment, until I pour my coffee down myself! haha!

Love the dress, so perfect for summer and I love the slightly dropped armhole. I hope and pray they have this in my local h&m as it's gorgeous!

Love your dress!! It's not in my local h&m, which store did you find yours?
Haven't seen long, drop waisted dresses like this since the '80s……
I'm absolutely amazed to see this – I used to wear dresses like this in the '80s, with flats and a denim jacket (couldn't afford leather)……
I couldn't afford leather either, until recently – it's a forever purchase. And yes, everything comes back round, I suppose – I have always liked a dropped waist personally (and this one has pockets!)
Oh yes, not practical at all! I found some sort of weird gravy mark down my white peasant top the other day, no idea how i even did it!
It's so annoying how the store doesn't always match up with online – but had to share! Hope you find it x
I found it in Regent Street store, London (which is my favourite one) x
I was thrilled to a quite uncool level to see you feature this on the blog PLUS the jacket, EXACTLY how I used to wear it. Being way less stylish than you, this feels great!! I still have my 2 drop waisted dresses from the '80s, both French Connection. One white with faint green pin stripes and another in a Japanese style blue fabric. We were inspired by Greta Scacchi's movie "Heat and Dust" (1983). I even had a pith helmet but only for private posing as it felt a bit OTT in the streets of London.
