When the sun comes out our thoughts immediately turn to summer colors, and one of the best colors we turn to in the summer is white. Bright and perfect set against the sunshine a white dress will set off a tan beautifully. If you are looking for different ways to wear a white dress this summer, here are a few tips showing off a number of different styles of white dresses and ways in which you can wear them to create elegantly stunning looks all summer long!

 

On the beach this summer

While the sun is shining you might want to visit the beach or even a lakeside resort if you do not live on the coast, and this little white beach cover up is great to throw over your bathing suit or bikini. Pair this dress with a casual pair of flip flops in a bright color. Any color goes with white so you can work with it very easily.

 

A formal evening out

If you are looking to wear a white dress on a more formal evening out, maybe an evening at the theatre or maybe for dinner and drinks, a white bodycon dress will show your curves while fitting in all the right places. Pair your dress with a navy colored blazer and a pair of heels with a contrasting colored clutch bag.

 

A day dress while strolling around your town or resort

When the sun is shining a little white dress is the perfect attire while wandering around town running errands or to relax in at your beach or lakeside resort. Pair this dress with a casual tote bag and a straw trilby hat over your beachy curls.

 

Attending a wedding

Yes we all know the rule, you never where white to a wedding, but it is not such a faux pas as it once was and as long as you do not turn up in a long white wedding dress (or something which could be mistaken for one) then I think you are safe. Opt for a midi length white dress and be sure so dress it up with some color though. Maybe opt for a colored blazer, sandals and clutch purse to detract from the stark whiteness of the white dress.

 

A casual Maxi dress

When the weather is warm a maxi dress is a brilliant way to dress up without looking overly formal, plus it will keep you cool and stylish in the summer heat too. Pair with some comfortable flat sandals and a large slouch purse for the ultimate in relaxed summer style.
