H&M Midi Dress

It has been oppressively hot the last couple of days and for this English "Rose", all too much. I made the crucial mistake of walking to dinner the other night and wow....bad move. I arrived a total sweaty betty and feeling a little bit sick to boot. Shall not repeat.

Today though there was a lovely breeze so when I went out to lunch I wore my new midi dress.

I got this in the mall yesterday....cue shots in the H&M changing room :)

What I wore....

The goods!

What ultimately attracted me to this dress was:

* The blush shade - a great base to pair with tans and pastels
* The lightness of the material - I do confess to a changing room twirl to see how it moves :)
* The slashed chiffon sleeve - the chiffon creates some nice movement and reveals a bit of arm flesh.
* The overall length - there is something refreshing about midi's: not sexy but very demure....which is sort of sexy in itself?

Anyway, here are some rushed shots for you :)

Dress: H&M

Belt: H&M
Shoes: Zara
Purse: Miu Miu
Accessories: Michael Kors watch and large gold metal ring Forever 21.

I think this would look even better with heels....dressed up for evening but I certainly wasn't going to do that today...too much effort in this heat man! :)

Have you ventured into this kind of skirt length?
