Sabra is rocking a tiered, sleeveless maxi dress in sunny orange and white. The fitted bodice tempers the volume of the full and flowy skirt, while the smocking adds subtle texture. The shoulder ties and ruffles add a romantic touch. The dress has interesting built-in pattern mixing with its horizontal tiers, alternating stripes and circles. Keeping footwear and accessories in the same colour palette creates visual cohesion. A white watch and flat white sandals echo the white in the dress. The raffia clutch and oversized dangly earrings are an exact match for the orange. The floppy straw hat in coral is not, but ties in perfectly with the rest of this charming Summer look.
Adrienne has mastered the art of volume on volume, and this jogger pant look is no exception. She has paired dramatically voluminous paperbag-waist joggers with a roomy, puffy-effect long-sleeved blouse. The graphic black and white print and white top add crispness. The oversized cargo pockets add a utilitarian aspect that is juxtaposed by the alluring effect of the off-the-shoulder top. Baring the shoulder, forearms and a sliver of midriff adds structure. So do the elasticated cuffs on the top and trousers. Dainty stiletto sandals in black and white add polish and bookend Adrienne’s gorgeous curls. Black nail polish, bright red lippy, and gold jewellery complete the look.
This is a statement piece if I ever saw one! At first sight you might think this is a sleeveless maxi dress, but Janie is sporting a fabulous jumpsuit with glam ‘60s vibe. The widely-spaced watercolour floral combines yellow, gold, green, black, and blue on a cream background. The high-neck top extends into unstructured, dramatically voluminous wide leg trousers with a high swoosh factor. The folded turtleneck collar looks extra elegant with our blogger’s shiny short ‘do. Chartreuse sandals and peppermint green quilted bag with gold chain-link strap tie in with the floral colour palette, as do the blue feathery earrings. Three ‘60s-style bangles and punchy raspberry lipstick are the perfect finishing touches.
With its Summery floral motif in warm yellow, orange, and olive — that looks glorious with Cathy’s red locks — this showstopping maxi dress reminds me of Positano ceramics. The fitted bodice, empire waist and deep V-neck create structure, and the dress then flares out from the empire waist down. The romantic flutter sleeves and tiered bottom panel create movement and are breezy on a hot day. Cathy has picked pale gold metallic accessories and footwear, which add shine and polish. The high-heeled mules have an extra pointy tip that elongates the leg line. A statement pendant fills in the V-neck perfectly. Oversized gold hoops and big mirrored sunnies top off this elegant Summer outfit.
Georgette’s madras print culottes in deliciously vibrant colours are the star of the show in this casual polished Summer look. She has paired them with a ribbed tank top in fuchsia that matches the pink in the wide crops. Tucking the top and showcasing the waistband of the high-waisted culottes visually lengthens the leg line from the hips up. Flat gladiator sandals in cognac add a touch of soft edge. The low-contrast colour also extends the line of the leg. A wicker bag in a similar colour to the footwear enhances the relaxed Summer vibe. Gold hoops and our blogger’s radiant smile complete the look.
