Along with the dungarees from Monday’s post I was also sent a dress by Wearall that I’ve practically lived in since it arrived. My wardrobe has lacked a simple striped jersey dress since the beginning of time so I was really excited to find one that not only did I like the look of online but that lived up to expectations in real life too.

Honestly this is probably the most comfortable item of clothing that I currently own and for £20.00 you really can’t go wrong with this dress. It comes in a couple of other colour combinations which I am putting serious thought in to, perfect for chilling out in especially when the weather is so bloomin’ temperamental!

Given that the weather has been dodgy at best I paired the dress with my new ankle boots that I picked up in the Banana Republic sale on my birthday. Reduced from £129.99 to just £34.99 I couldn’t leave these in the store, I was planning to put them away for the autumn but just couldn’t bear to. Banana Republic isn’t a shop I’ve ever been overly familiar with but as I was lucky enough to win a gift card I had a good nosy around their store in Bath and was smitten with the quality and quantity of fantastic pieces they do. A bit out of my price range, but the sale was excellent so I’ll be keeping my eyes peeled for further bargains!

For a more summery look the dress would look equally good with a pair of chunky heels like this pair from Jones Bootmaker. I really don’t need any more shoes (how often do I say this?) but I do feel my collection is lacking on the simple sandals front…

What do you think of these simple stripes? I love how the zipper detail on the front stops a classic edging in to the boring territory.
