What to wear for a special summer event?!

Dear everyone,

We know that summer is full of events & special occasions that require some percentage of dressing-up! As promised, here is a post with tips and pictures on what to wear. 6 trends of dresses for this summer and how to make it look special:
1. Tight fitting, knee-long dress. A lighter colour fits best for hot summer evening. Make sure to wear other shades than white, if the occasion is a wedding.

Marchesa

If your wallet will not bear a Marchesa purchase, a dress from H&M (20 Eu) in similar style would be a good substitute.

2. Lace is still a big trend. A beautiful dress in lace would fit into & decorate any occasion. But beware it can be vulgar if misused:) Very tight fitting, bright colours, transparents, are a big No! No!    

Valentino
or 
(Asos - 150 Eu)

3. For the girls who are more of a hippie - boho chic type, there is the maxi dress trend with ethnic patterns, light fabrics and flowers. Summerly, never -too -much and (plus) covers the unwanted on your wonderful bodies. And forget the misconception that maxi dresses are just for tall girls. On the contrary with matching wedges you prolong your silhouette dramatically: Nicole Richie is a perfect illustration.  
 Ella Moss

or 

Mango (80 Eu)

4. For less of a dress- type girls, maxi trend suggests a good alternative, maxi skirts with blouses. Fabrics like silk or chiffon, bows, colous like blush, sand, beige, all this will make an everyday skirt + blouse into a beautiful outfit for any special occasion. Real inspiration by Olivia Palermo.

Asos 40 Eu

5. More traditional? An A-shape dress that fits most of the women and screams "I'm so elegant!" For summer sleeveless types in lighter colours and fabrics is a perfect outfit for any occasion.

6. And last but not least, for all the beautiful ladies out there with little middle parts, these updated styles a la New Look is for you! Make is short -sleeved and bright coloured for a perfect summer party.
