This Topshop dress is just what you need for the heatwave
It's official, summer is on the way, and as I've mentioned before, the only way to ride out the heatwave in style is with a slip dress. They're versatile (wear them over a t-shirt or on their own, with strappy sandals or hiking sandals), sexy and comfortable.
This season, I'm particularly loving designers' elevated take on the humble floral nighty. Think satin or silk, a thicker strap and pretty floral motif, all with a vintage twist.
If you're looking for an affordable take on the trend, then Topshop's daisy print slip midi dress is the one for you.

It features a delicate daisy pattern on an ivory fabric, and a pretty flattering neckline. Wear it with a chunky flat during the day, and a heeled sandal at night.
Not only will it be great for work, it'll also be ideal on holiday, thanks to its lightweight fabric - plus the colour will look rather nice with a tan.
Bring on the heatwave.
