Summer Dresses to Bring Out the Carefree Spirit in You

Summer brings with it unhurried mornings, a whiff of fresh flowers and rain-soaked earth, and sizzlingly stylish evenings. With mercury levels soaring, this is the time to unleash your wild sprit. So take out all those chic, glamorous outfits from the closet, or better still, go all the way and give your wardrobe a complete makeover.

The spring/ summer collections of 2010 are all in stores now, and all you need to do is search around a little bit to identify the stuff that is right for you. To get you started, here are some tips on what’s really hot this season.

– Go blue – Move over the greens and purples. Blue is the new pink this summer. As with every season, this summer has its very own color scheme, as inspired by the creations of thousands of designers across the world. For daytime summer dresses, there is nothing better than a dainty, vintage style floral outfit in shades of blue. Choose from cotton, linen, or jersey dresses that accentuate the delicate and feminine look. On the other hand, if you are not quite the floral look person, you can give nautical stripes a try. This season the stripes are big and bold, and for some extra glam, you can throw in stripes and glitter together. For a hot summer day, there is nothing more chic than a blue and white striped dress. And for the evenings, you can keep the color scheme in place and just opt for a more layered dress or one with a ruffled skirt. The same goes for floral print dresses – while delicate, petite prints are great for the day, you can spice up your evening look with big floral prints and a ruffled look.

– Draping – Inspired by the designs of Donna Karan, Amanda Wakeley, and Burberry Prorsum, Grecian draping is all the rage this summer. This trend is incredibly flattering to the female form and highlights one’s femininity like no other. Chiffon is the best kind of fabric for this draping, and it works extremely well on petite women. Keep the body tight, cinch in the dress at the waist, and you are all set to sport the most curvaceous, hourglass look!

– Prints, patterns, and motifs – A hot trend this summer is mixing prints, patterns, and motifs. It creates a fresh and interesting look, and if the catwalks are anything to go by, this is one style which is here to stay for quite a while now. You can combine checks with stripes, elaborate floral prints with geometric designs, or Indian motifs with abstract prints. If you want to sport a delicate look, you can try a hint of embroidery or beadwork on an otherwise simple soft colored dress.

– Elegant styles – For a night out, you would probably want something summery and yet feminine. The classic shift dress is a great option when it comes to evening parties. You can go with the one-shoulder look, a buttoned down or pleated style, or even pair it up with leggings for a more stylish daytime look. You can also try it in some unusual color and when teamed up with the right kind of accessories, this dress can even work as the prefect wedding outfit!

The summer dress styles of this year show a remarkably easy blend of style, quality, and tradition. So get ready to beat the heat with the new chic dresses and accessories.
