Any time I go on holiday I like to pack a couple of dresses that will take me from beach to bar with a simple change of accessories, so when George at Asda asked me to pick out my favourite dress and style it in to a couple of outfits I already had a little experience under my belt.
I picked out this maxi dress as my chosen piece as I fell in love with the elegant neckline and neutral colour palette. I was also able to pick out a few accessories to help me along the way and with them I’ve created one daytime look and one evening look to share.
Daytime: By adding flat shoes and a casual bag to the dress it dressed it down enough to wear for a day spent exploring on foot. These sandals are a bargain at £8 and I get on really, really well with George at Asda’s shoes. I couldn’t resist sneaking in a pair of sunglasses too, at a mere fiver for this cool pink pair it would have been rude not to!
Evening: A smart clutch bag and some embellished heels transform this dress in to something suitable for a special night out. Bonus points to the shoes for being comfortable enough to walk miles in, and another bargain at £16!
What do you think of the looks that I created? Are you a fan of day-to-night dresses too? George at Asda have such an amazing selection of well, everything right now. Although I was invited by the brand to do this post and sent items for the purpose (all items featured in this post are c/o George at Asda) I can hand on heart say it’s one of the first places I head when I am in needed of some good value new additions to my wardrobe, I’m suckered in every time I do an Asda food shop!
Love these looks. I love the dress – the pattern is wonderful. I’ve been really impressed with everything I purchased from George, the quality is really goo.
I’m a fan of finding different ways to wear items, this dress would also look great with a canvas beach bag and some flip flops, or you could add ankle boots and a wrap for chilly evenings. This day-to-night look is especially good for holidays when you have to take packing into consideration. Love it!
That’s a really nice dress, I’d be tempted to buy it. You look pretty in both evolutions. X
Gorgeous! Such a pretty dress, I love pieces that are super versatile <3
George has such gorgeous pieces, amazing quality too! Plus they have the best pyjamas. You look lovely, I like the neckline on the dress especially! x

I have this clutch in white! It’s such a lovely shape, George stock so many awesome pieces these days.
Looking so strikingly stylish as always gorgeous girl! The maxi you picked is a sure fire stunner, I love that it screams summer yet I can imagine it looking just as amazingly Autumnal. The cool pink shades are beautiful, such a pretty colour tone! Love how you’ve amped up the look with evening embellishment <3
