Style Theory: The 2014 Shirtdress, cool, sharp, comfortable and versatile, can be worn in town or to the beach over a swimsuit, a chic, more structured alternative to the boho dress..just add a wide brimmed straw hat for Riveria perfection...
I have realised I need more dresses like the shirtdress that are a good length (just above my knee) and cover my arms. I am beginning to love this flattering style (maybe it is my age?!) as it looks so chic with a pair of strappy flat sandals for the beach and strolling up to a beachbar. Here is how the designers and streetstylers are wearing them...

And here are are some beautiful shirt dresses to be found on the high street now:
Love, love this shirt dress, the idea cut, shape, colour, sadly even reduced to £154 still waaayy out of my price range.
Love the fact that this is a cotton blend, denim. It would look great thrown over a bikini with gold strappy sandals.
This is a loud print but looks good, the fabric drapes beautifully and it would look great with a pair of lemon espadrilles for the beach, or with some nude strappy sandals on a evening out.
Wear this with a pair of sliders for a cool edge.
A fit and flare look, so cute, I would wear with little pointed white and silver ballet shoes like these:
I think I need these shoes in my life, so so fabulous on.
Gorgeous dress if you are brave enough to wear white, fab shape and great length. However, I would be covered in mucky kids fingerprints within two seconds of putting it on!
This would look great with jewelled sandals and a straw trilby.
My favourite dress, I love the look of this, I have ordered it so I will let you know how it looks.
I have bought this one too, a great beach dress.
There is my round up of my favourite shirtdress available now, I really like the look it is quite grown up and elegant and will be such a lovely look on a summer break away.
