Thank you for including us that MUST wear a bra. I find all the dresses with skinny straps so infuriating as I really cant go out without one. I am embracing intentionally letting my bra show and I really like what it brings to an outfit sometimes
I loved this. ❤️ It made me think how often summer style advice assumes we're all living the same life, when actually so many women are dressing for changing bodies, commutes, work, toddlers, hot flushes and breastfeeding all at once. This piece really captured that so well. Comfort isn't giving up on style, it's what lets you actually enjoy your life.
Well exactly! I tried to add a few possible escenarios but there are so many more! The key is to dress for comfort and your lifestyle and don’t follow silly outdated rules. Thank you so much for reading and for this comment!
Oh so you are aware of hot summers! 🥵 Yes totally, but lots of waya you can still layer during summer, a linen shirt over a floaty dress, layering jewellery, a scarf around the waist. Though for me the less fuss the better when it’s boiling!
Excellent run-down of what to wear in the summer! I'm one of those women who can't go braless (well, I could, but I prefer to do that in the privacy of my home!), and I work in an office. YES to the silk and wool! I'm wearing a Diane Von Furstenberg silk/wool dress this week, and it's shockingly lightweight and wonderful for hot weather.
Thank you Sheila! I understand what you mean! I love being braless but it needs to be the right dress or top otherwise I get too self-conscious. Yes! Wool and silk are the perfect blend for summer dressing!

Exactly! Who said a bra had to be invisible? Outdated rules!
I love a bright-coloured bra strap peeking out from under a simple white tank top. It adds so much personality to an outfit!

Genuinely such a useful post, thank you! She says whilst commuting on the tube during a heatwave wearing silk shorts!
Thank you Leesa! Oh I wish you the best of luck, the tube in summer is hell on earth! stay cool and ‘cool’ with your silk shorts! love them!
Thank you, trying! Happy weekend!
