For me, nothing says ‘spring’ like an airy day dress in a cute print or pastel colour. Perfect with a light cardi or leather jacket, they’re fun, effortless, and can be speedily restyled with whichever trainers or shoes take my fancy.
Whether you’re after a loose-fitting midi for an upcoming brunch, or a playful mini dress for a summer day trip, I’d recommend taking a look at the pieces that I’ll be wearing on the daily this spring.
With their comfy fits, lightweight fabrics and wearable colours, these dresses are perfect for everyday dressing, but you can easily style them up for evening plans too. Enjoy!
Ideal For: Fancier Events
If you have a bougie lunch or afternoon tea on the cards this month (lucky you!), the breezy Bobbie dress would be my top choice. This floral midi accentuates your waist and can be dressed down with sandals and a denim jacket for casual plans, or styled up with strappy heels and a lightweight blazer.
Ideal For: Making An Impact
This multicoloured maxi is sure to win you compliments at your next brunch or bar trip. The gorgeous print is perfect for sunny days, while the slightly relaxed fit is both comfy and cooling. Win-win! I’d go for nude heels or white trainers to compliment the vibrant colours.
Ideal For: Far-Flung Getaways
For that upcoming vacay, how about this vivid floral maxi dress, a belted style that’s made for holiday dinners and strolls along the beach. It’s flattering, lightweight, and even has an elasticated waist, so you can tuck into that second portion of paella in comfort.
Ideal For: Coffee Meets
Shirt dresses are one of my favourite styles to wear in spring. Light, comfy and the right amount of dressy, these fuss-free pieces are so easy to throw on. I’d wear this green floral maxi to coffee dates or brunch, and I’ll pop on some white trainers for a look that’s both relaxed and put-together.
Ideal For: Daytime Occasions
From christenings to family get-togethers, my diary is front-loaded with so many special events this spring. This baby blue midi will work well for all sorts of plans – the floaty skirt will cool me down on sunny days, while the sleeves will add some extra warmth if needed! I’ll be styling this one with heels or sandals depending on the occasion.
Ideal For: Date Night
You can’t go wrong with a pink mini for date night. Whether you need a dress for daytime drinks or a swanky dinner, this wrap-over dress won’t let you down. A classic polka print never goes out of style, and that vivid pink base looks lovely with white or metallic heels.
