When it is hot, a dress is the perfect choice. It allows the air to circulate, which makes a huge difference to how cool you feel. Plus, when you choose to wear dresses, things are far easier in the mornings. There is no messing around trying to decide what goes with what. You just grab your dress and shoes, get dressed, and go.
For holidays, dresses are a great option. You will stay cool, look great and make your packing easier too. The tricky bit is deciding which type to take. As you will see some styles are better choices than others for a holiday.
Versatile maxi dresses
Simply Be have a great range of maxi dresses which are perfect for taking on holiday. This style of dress is extremely versatile.
A lightweight one can easily be worn over the top of your costume for the walk to the beach. At lunchtime, just slip it back on and eat in the restaurant of your choice. Nobody is going to refuse you entry because you are not dressed appropriately.
In the evenings, that same dress can be accessorized with some costume jewelry and maybe a belt. It is a great way to create a glamorous look for a romantic evening out.
Maxi dresses are also very modest. In some countries, where the dress code is very conservative, this is an important consideration.
A fitted dress
If you think you want to create a sophisticated look, go for a fitted style of dress. A sheath or pencil dress can look very classy, when paired with the right jewelry, a strappy pair of sandals and a small bag.
An off-the-shoulder dress
Off the shoulder dresses are also nice for a holiday. They give you a chance to get a nice tan and are a great way to stay nice and cool. If the weather changes you can still wear them, all you need to do is to don a lightweight jacket. Or, for cool evenings, wear a wrap or something similar.
A few additional tips
Regardless of the style of dress you decide to pack, there are a few things you need to bear in mind. Top of the list is how easy it will be to get in your case. Generally speaking, the more lightweight the dress is the better. They will not take up less of your weight allowance and be easier to fit into your case.
No matter how carefully you pack, your clothes are going to be prone to creasing. So, be sure to pick a fabric that is reasonably crease-resistant.
