Style Notes: A dress this colourful speaks for itself, so the best route is to keep the accessorising minimal. Just a simple pair of Birks and some tortoiseshell sunnies will do the trick.

Style Notes: I love the Western feel of this look, from the tiered cotton dress to the black cowboy boots. The long waistcoat is an unexpected addition, but one that I'm just a little bit obsessed with. Bravo, Stephanie.

Style Notes: A slip dress is one of the easiest pieces to take from day to night. For the daytime look, layer a relaxed cotton or linen shirt over your maxi and step into your comfiest kicks. Come evening, switch them out for strappy black heels.

Style Notes: Thin knitted dresses are ideal for summer in the UK, and can be carried into the autumn months. Style yours on its own with slide-on sandals, or chuck a lightweight jacket on top if the temperature drops.

Style Notes: I find that off-the-shoulder necklines counteract the longer length of maxi dresses—by showing some skin, you'll avoid feeling swamped by all the fabric. Again, running shoes are your best bet if you're aiming for a laid-back look.

Style Notes: Re-wear your silky wedding guest dress on a Saturday night by adding a menswear-inspired blazer and a pair of flat sandals. Leather flip-flops will look really cool peaking out from under the hem.
