A carefree dress you can just throw on at the last minute is a summertime staple. Eggshell blue is a flattering tone that suits most complexions.

All from Karen Walker
The halterneck style best suits smaller busted ladies who have narrow shoulders. For evening drinks with friends, ditch the shorts for a pair of dark jeans.

Plaited wedges in black $99.90
Both from French Connection
The A-line design of this dress flatters pear-shaped ladies as it nips in the waist. The buttons on the bodice also help to bring attention to this area.
Striped cami $80
Button-front, shaped hem skirt $100
Moulded Footbed sandals $100
All from Max
Try a beachy fishtail braid. Hair that hasn't been washed for a few days works best here. Hot tip: a hair texturising spray creates a matte and lived-in effect.

Team this dress with a denim jacket when the night gets cooler for a retro 70s flavour.
