With temperatures reaching 30 degrees in the coming days, chances are you’ve already started rummaging through your wardrobe in search of last summer’s dresses \u2013 only to realize they’re not making that much of an impact. That’s how my pre-payday search for a sleek, expensive-looking updo (that doesn’t require a designer budget) began.<\/p>\n

As usual, I started with COS. The minimalist in me is always drawn to its clean lines, well-thought-out cuts and subtle design details that make even the simplest silhouette feel elevated. For something more trend-conscious, I inevitably turn to Zara and H&M \u2013 think lace trims, polka dots and the now-inevitable Basque waist, all reimagined in a way that still feels wearable.<\/p>\n

For those leaning towards something softer and more romantic, Marks & Spencer continues to impress. Its offering of floaty, beautiful dresses with puff sleeves, delicate florals and flowy silhouettes has quietly become one of the strongest on the high street. And if you’re willing to invest a little more, Reformation and Anthropologie consistently offer easy, great dresses that feel a little more upscale, perfect for everything from city days to vacations and last-minute summer plans.<\/p>\n
