Ellie wears a summer dress from Reformation.
If you're a regular around these parts, you may have deduced that dresses are my weakness. Since the tender age of three, I've been parading through the lengths of my parents' living room and twirling to my heart's content (anyone else?). Now, the daily sartorial question has become less about what I'm wearing and instead, which dress. It should come as no surprise then that spend a significant amount of time in both my personal and professional life scouting for the best dresses on the market, and in doing so I've been coined somewhat of a dress aficionado. A title I'll humbly accept, given my love of frocks!
Typically when winter roles around dresses are folded away for spring and summer, but I find myself employing inventive styling methods and procuring seasonally appropriate styles (long sleeves, knitted fabrications and midi lengths, for example), in order to dress in accordance with the forecast. I consider the challenge accepted and I enjoy finding creative solutions to extend the wear out of my favourite pieces. It's also the time of year when spring-ready pieces start landing on retailer sites and we've been given a taste of what's to come (lots of silk and golden hues), when high denier tights are a thing of the past.
