Red dresses are definitely having a moment, well for me they are anyway. I've got myself well and truly hooked with some fab sale purchases. And now I want them all; long, short, ruffled....the possibilities are endless.
Like I said the red dress trend has got me, I just couldn't resist the sale bargains. Number one is this fabulous maxi dress from New Look, with buttons up the front and shirred sleeves. I got it in store and paid just £12!! It's since sold out online but is still available on the ASOS website, unfortunately not at sale price but believe me it is worth it. It's a firm blogger favorite at the moment and looks fab with wedges and basket bags. I've styled it here with a night out in mind so have mixed it up with a jacquard bag and some midi heels. I sized down in this one so it would fit slightly better around the chest area.
Button Front Maxi Dress New Look @ ASOS £27.99 (in-store sale £12.00)
Pink Floral Jacquard Box Bag New Look £15.99
Now if we're talking red dresses I couldn't not go for this one, could I ?! It's another fashionista favourite and I love it, but this is also probably why it has sold out online so quickly. The linen fabric is so comfortable to wear and will be perfect for summer evenings, it has a belt attached to the waist which you can wear to the front, the back or wrap it around. I took this one in a size up as I found it more comfortable and easier to get on and off. It is still available in some stores but if you can't get your hands on it then there's plenty more where that came from....

This one from Mango (below) is a favourite of mine and is a fabulous alternative to the one above. I love the soft levels of fabric and the flared sleeves. It would be perfect as styled below on a sunny evening on holiday. Or you could style it with heels for a more glam look and even with flats for during the day.

The smock dress (above) from ASOS would be great to throw on over a bikini on holiday or just as easily dressed up with some gold accessories for evening. It also has a fail safe 'smock dress' fit which would cover any lumps and bumps you're worried about showing off and has the sleeve detailing to cover the top of your arms.

If it's ultimate glamour you're after; just add ruffles and frills. Keep the rest of your outfit simple and let your dress do the talking. Or for real fashionista vibes clash a bright red with orange or pink.
And of course you'll have to take some photos and more importantly you'll have to channel 'that' emoji!! Don't be shy ladies.....
