Midi Dresses in October

Midi Dresses This Season

So since starting my blog, one of the things I realised about myself is that, my style had died a little. I developed a uniform, and I’ve been wearing my ‘uniform’ for a long time. Everyday I’ll be wearing a t-shirt/ or a shirt, jeans paired with trainers or boot heels. When I used to work in retail on Oxford Street, my style was in it’s prime! I was always on trend, while investing in timeless pieces. I was working in London’s heart of fashion, and the style was so infectious. I used to clash my fabrics a bit more, and experiment with colour clashing sports wear with tailoring. If anything I was probably known for my ‘out there’ coats and jackets!

I have my blog to thank for opening my eyes to this, and yes I got my mojo back with last weeks post ‘Velvet Shoes & Isabel Marant Etoile’. I love this shoot because this is me! It reminded me what my style was like, and what it could become. I’ve even got back into wearing midi dresses. Top Shop has come through with these floral dresses during summer, with some great autumnal midi dresses such as the Garden Floral Print Midi Dress I wore here!

Midi dresses are more versatile than you think! I’ve styled them with heels for an evening look or a pair of Gucci loafers or trainers for a day look. I also love wearing them under jeans, and that’s a whole new outfit too. I guess the trick is how to wear them as the months get colder. I wasn’t the warmest during this shoot, but I’ll do a winter update for this midi dress!
