The summer has finally arrived!
It's time to wear dresses and jumpsuits again! :)
some inspirations:
# the LBD (Little Black Dress): black
- material: cotton, jersey (doesn't crumble to easy)
- favorite brands: - cheap: H&M, Asos
- more expensive: Twist & Tango, Shopbop, Net-a-porter
- my tips for buying: - "Audrey Hepburn"-like
- sleeveless or with a very short sleeve
- midi-length (a little higher than your knees)
- not too tight (you should be able to sit with your dress)

# the ball gown/ maxi dress
I'm not giving you tips here because everybody has an individual taste.
But I think it comes helpful to have at least one dress for occasions like balls, graduation, weddings.
I like it simple and understated. A great brand would be J.Crew.
For my graduation years ago I wore a beautiful red dress without much details.
# jumpsuit/overall: various plain colors (blue, red...), print
- material: cotton, jersey
- favorite brands: Zara, Maison Scotch, Asos, Isabel Marant, Lipsy London
- my tips for buying: - loose fit
- overall: - I prefer black or print
- not too wide on your ankle
- slim, camisole-like shoulder-strap (see picture) - short jumpsuit: - I love printed versions
- wide shoulder straps (see picture)
