The Ever Reliable and Versatile Denim Dress









Images via Pinterest
Style Theory: The denim dress, a real summer must-have, it is the kind of dress that you can keep for years and years as the more you wear it the better it looks. I never tire of wearing mine in the summer months, they are perfect for this crazy UK weather and equally are a great item to wear on evening strolls on holiday.This year pretty much any style goes, from patchwork to button through from mini to maxi...
MiH Jeans Denim Dress £275
Super expensive but just look at those sleeves and the detail on the top, love this. I bought one similar from Whistles just after I had my son and it was perfect post baby wear, super comfy and hid my huge tummy! This would look fab with the wedge espadrilles or flat tan sandals in the summer.
Asos Denim Shift Dress with Cold Shoulder Ruffle £42
A current update to the denim dress, these cold shoulders dresses are surprisingly flattering, defintely worth giving a go.
River Island Patchwork Dress £42
It has taken me a little while to warm to the patchwork trend but now I am fully onboard, it looks slightly edgy but is also practical with denim patchwork being incredibly robust. This dress is quite heavy denim so hangs gorgeously, almost slightly stiff so it covers every lump and bump. Pair with trainers, sandals or wedge heels. It came to just below my knees (I am 5ft3) so it is not as scarily short as it looks on this super tall model.
Topshop Maxi Shirt Dress £45
Such a easy dress to throw on, it is great if you are not mad on your legs, for a bit of definition I would tie a camo shackett around the waist and leave the top few buttons undone. Just add a pair of tan sandals for an easy summer look.
See by Chloe @Very Exclusive UK reduced to £144.50
This is quite a thick denim, not really heavy just quite structured so it skims over all lumps and bumps. It is an investment piece but such a classic style that it will see you through from summer to winter.
Warehouse £45
Another great 'throw on' dress. I have tried this dress on and it looks great, so understated, again I would undo the top buttons to make it look more slouchy.
Warehouse reduced to £35
Very Stella McCartney, this is a super stylish denim dress, it would look gorgeous styled as the street style photo above with a neck tie and espadrilles for a real 2016 look.
Warehouse £45
The perfect shift dress with a flattering ruffle detail on the shoulder, cute with a little sass.
Zara £29.99
A light, summer dress, perfect for warm holiday days.. 
Cos Store £79
A gorgeous twist on the basic denim dress, the twisted top and curved hem are beautiful design details that adds interest.

My Style
I bought this Levis denim dress a few years ago and wear it in both the winter with opaque tights and boots and in the summer with bare legs and sandals. I love the cape shoulder detail and it is my 'go to' dress when I want to wear something easy, flattering and practical.
