We’re still in the month of summer; the month where the sun is at its hottest, when people go to the beaches, parties are at its peak, camp fires are lit, and when people travel for fun, relaxation and a good time. Let’s face it; summer is one of the best moments in the year because of all the fun you can have; from giving your wardrobe a overhaul to creating the perfect outfit combo, planning the ultimate summer party, getting a tan, and taking a vacation. What’s not to like?

In order to make this summer a memorable one before it comes to an end, you need to get the perfect outfit that’ll leave a great impression. When it comes to dresses for women, it can be a bit difficult choosing the right outfit and the right colour. Plus, it’s summer, you have to go with bright colours for the “pop” and “flair”. Here my top 4 summer outfit inspo in order to create that dazzling look and, without breaking the bank.

1. Myleene Klass Asymmetric Neck Ruffle Back Dress
Bit of a long name for a dress. This dress is flawless, chic, and red; you can never go wrong with red. This bodycon dress is stunning, and it has “confidence” written all over it so, not only can you not go wrong with red but you can never go wrong with this dress. There’ll be lots of parties this summer and if you want to turn heads whilst looking chic, this is the dress to go with. You get to show off your shoulder, back and hands while the whole dress, as well as the ruffles brings out your curves and body. This dress is practically perfect for any occasion and, with the right accessories and makeup, you can take it from a day to night time outfit. This outfit is perfect with black flats or black sandal heel and a purse to match; you can go with a natural makeup or a smokey eye and red lips.

2. Boutique Lace Bodycon Dress
This dress is from Boohoo and they never disappoint when it comes to dresses. Everything about this dress is perfect, from the colour to the ruffles and, it’s lace. Lace is practically beautiful for summer and the colour is bright. With this dress, you get to show off your shoulders and legs whilst looking sexy. This dress is both simple and chic; and it accentuates your curves due to it being a bodycon dress. You just can’t go wrong with this outfit. Though, perfect for summer, it can be worn to any occasion if paired properly. But, for summer, go with a nice pair of heels and hoop earrings or a necklace to attract attention to your face, neck and shoulder.

3. Green Printed Cowl Maxi Dress
This dress from Pretty Little Thing is something I can’t seem to stop staring at. Though, due to its floral prints, one might think it’s meant for spring but who says you can’t add a pop of floral design to summer? If you’re going for a summer beach party and you want to “wow” the crowd from head-to-toe, this is the perfect outfit to choose. It’s stunning, bold and fierce; not to mention that slit. With that leg slit and cowl neck design, you get to show of your skin and still look all kinds of sexy. Pair this outfit with a strap heel, a nice pair of earrings and necklace, and a natural makeup to finish the look.

4. Shirred Stripe Poplin Bardot Dress
Summer is certainly the time to show some skin and here’s another dress to help you keep it simple and chic. This dress is perfect for summer; having a simple pop of colour: pastel blue and white (in stripe), paired with minimal earrings and heels, you’re definitely summer ready. It can be worn for any summer occasion because you don’t have to over do it; the colours are natural and you just have to keep it simple.

Don’t forget to accessorize to complement your outfit; no matter what you go with. Accessories this summer are part of your wardrobe staple and could range from statement earrings to necklaces, rings, pendant, and even bracelets. Summer isn’t over yet; so make sure you create a lasting impression with whatever outfit you choose.
