I’m the Queen of black, and I can’t disown it again until next winter, there’s no way. A little bit of sunshine won’t tear us apart. When you’re a bit chunky like me, and you haven’t spent your winter months dieting for this moment, then you will understand the importance of black. It hides all the lumpy, bumpy bits and makes you look bloody great at the same time.
Many of us can be scared to wear black in the summer because black attracts the sun. But that never stops my friends and I. There’s a difference between picking a black winter dress, and a black summer dress. The fabrics are completely different. My advice is to find an outfit that’s cut out in all the right places, so you’re still showing off skin and not going full on gothic. So stand out in black and see how you should be wearing black this season:
Wear it with style:
It’s the perfect evening go-to when you want to be stylish. The color black is fashion and it’s so Chanel. You’ll always be rocking sophistication, but you’ll never be too far away from sexy. All it takes is a cute bag, the right shoes and red lippy to turn any boring black outfit into one worth envying.

Wear it the sexy way:
If there’s one thing I love about sheer, is that you can be sexy timidly. You don’t have to wear plunging necklines, or red lipstick to make black sexy. It’s all about pretending to show off your skin without actually having to go bare. Alongside this, it’s also fresh, and urban chic. Every cool girl is draped in sheer. And I must admit I feel like the cool girl when I’m wearing it too – even if I’m totally not!

This is what I love about the black dress. It can be the simplest, most boring thing in your closet but with a nice tan, you can put it on, add the right accessories and look amazing. There’s nothing better about a simple black dress, that hides what you want hiding and makes you feel incredible. You should honestly look in my closet because almost every dress I own is black.
