Each season I like to post my favourite maxi dress find - check out my previous picks for
Autumn,
Winter and
Spring. Right now, this cotton maxi from Littlewoods is my favourite for the coming summer. The rich berry shades make it perfect for anything from lounging on the beach to strolling around sightseeing. I'd add a purple bolero to cover up the arms and a graduated purple hijab to complement the colour scheme. Simple accessories like gladiator sandals, wooden bangles and a canvas bag finish off a comfortable yet stylish holiday outfit:
South printed cotton maxi dress £29, Littlewoods;
fine-knit cotton bolero £14.99, Esprit;
purple hijab £5.75, Hijab Store Online;
Sandy canvas hobo £40, Oasis;
Leather Gladiator Sandal £30, Barratts;
wood and metal bangle set £8, Miss Selfridge.
Hint: Littlewoods are giving £10 off your first order when you spend £25 or more, with the code
ZG561.
