Weekend Getaway

Summer vacations may be over, but that doesn't mean that you are bound to stay where you are until winter! Early autumn is the perfect time for a weekend getaway, preferably somewhere to the countryside where you can enjoy the pleasantly warm days, crisp, fresh nights and all the bounty nature has to offer.

And this month, we are here to help you plan your weekend escape in style! We are suggesting four outfits - for everything you might need, from country walks to romantic dinners, that are sure to make you feel and look your best.

There is nothing quite like arriving in style. We admit to have caught the pink flamingo virus going on in the fashion world this summer, and decided to go over the top with it. Sometimes you just have to indulge your girly side and go with all pink everything!

An essential part of every weekend getaway is the relaxing stroll through the countryside. We mixed and matched patterns here for a more relaxed, playful look, but kept the colours down to the classics – black, white and red.

A romantic dinner is a highlight of every weekend getaway, and we went with an Audrey Hepburn style dress and shoes you can dance in all night long.

And sometimes you just need to take a leisurely stroll through a small town and admire the shops, take in the air and find the perfect cup of tea and a dessert. Perhaps a lemon tart? This skirt really does put us in the mood for some lemon-based treats! 

A Dress For Every Occasion

We all know the mythical LBD - The absolutely must have little black dress which is oh so incredibly versatile and can be dressed up or down or worn to just about any occasion.

Well, with a little tweaking, this goes for a lot of dresses, and we decided to try our hand at the whole idea. We chose a shirtwaist dress we are absolutely in love with - The Meadow Dress, and created four sets for four occasions.


The first is our casual way to wear a dress, because far too many dresses linger in the closet waiting for a right occasion. We're not afraid to pair our dress with a pair of baseball shoes and a bandana for a quick and easy style.

Of course, an occasion like a party requires a little more effort, so we added some heels, a lovely parasol to keep you safe from sunburn, and a pretty little purse that matches the overall colours.

Vamping this dress up for a night on the town was as easy as adding a higher heel and bolder jewellery (and black nail polish, because we're feeling extra vampy tonight), and a heartbreaker bag. 

Of course, this dress is just as suitable for your workday, especially when paired with a cute cardigan, an adorable hair clip and a purse, all decked out in cherries for extra sweetness in your day!
