A Simple Floral Midi Dress With a Statement Necklace and Block Heels

Summer dressing is so easy – I always miss it when autumn rolls around.

A simple floral midi dress is just about the most uncomplicated outfit you can wear all year. I first wore this Boden dress on the Good Housekeeping photo shoot in January (it wasn’t featured in the end) and loved it so much I bought one as soon as it went on sale.

I added white block-heeled sandals and the most fabulous statement choker necklace I bought for myself as a treat for my birthday. I like how it echoes the little gold bars on the sandals and matches my Peach Melba toenails (all pure coincidence, I can assure you). Block heels are my go-to new shoe shape right now; they provide a little height but are pretty much as comfortable as flats. I want to get as much wear out of these as I can before the cold starts getting to my toes…!

Is there a particular shoe shape you’re obsessed with right now? What do you think of block heels – are they for you or not? Do let me know in the comments!
