Is a summer wardrobe really complete without a maxi dress?

Dresses may not be for everyone, and typically Leonie Barlow - also known as "The Style Insider" would opt for something a little more "sporty" but there's something so effortless and elegant about a full length dress. This summer season, she's switched up her streetwear for something a little more feminine and we think she looks great! 

What's easier than throwing on a dress and having your outfit sorted? Besides being fabulously flattering, maxi dresses are also very versatile. While embracing the soft, floral, boho inspired dress, Leonie, adds a touch of "street" to her look by teaming her Toast Dress with a pair of white converse. 

To take your look from 'daytime errands' to 'beachside bar' and swap your sneakers for sandals, add gold jewelry and a bold lip. 

If you're heading somewhere a little more dressy and want to elevate your look again, pop on a pair of wedges and grab your favourite denim or leather jacket for a sophisticated ensemble, perfect for a summer soiree.
