    It is either ‘go bold or go home’. This season will be found particularly cheerful as statement dresses are conquering. Forget plain designs – it will be all about oversized sleeves, voluminous garments, colours and ruffles. The more details you will find in a dress, the more it should be wanted in your wardrobe. The most wanted colours will be the ones such as palace blues, nile greens or even warm sand. We encourage you to be creative and choose different shades of these colours. Today we are picking a beautiful satin statement dress from MVN. You can see all of the features we are talking about – big sleeves, voluminous A-shape bottom, romantic print and all of this in a beautiful muted teal colour. The dress is neither too short, nor too long, just a perfect length to show off your tanned legs. That is why we are pairing it with classic feet opening sling-back pumps in white and adding a more summery version of a bag – a wooden tote.
    Styling Tip: Keep your shoes and accessories minimal and let the dress speak for itself. You are allowed to wear intriguing handbag but choose plain shoes, preferably on a little heel.
