The little black dress
You might associate the classic little black dress with Christmas party season, but in fact a summer LBD is extremely chic. After all, black can be the perfect backdrop to all your most vibrant summer accessories and, most importantly, you don’t have to worry so much about accidentally dripping ketchup down yourself at a barbecue when wearing it. Make like Gabrielle Bassett and choose a simple design such as this frill-strapped slip dress, which looks great with an eye-catching bag.
