What is it about the sunshine and a floral dress that just seem to go hand in hand? This year there is one particular floral dress with puffed sleeves that has taken the street style scene by storm; this one. It’s no surprise considering it literally makes for the perfect summer outfit. But how do you style this summer dress, to create a look that is different, but also super luxe? You know that here on The Silk Sneaker we like to talk about all things luxury. Luxury doesn’t always mean that it has to be something expensive, it also means how you feel in an outfit, and also how we can take a high street summer mini dress like this one, and make it look super luxurious with just a handful of tricks.

1. Add some drama
Nothing says high fashion like a little bit of drama am I right? To really make this dress shine for a cute summer outfit, I added in this giant straw hat with the beautiful tie ribbons. I literally felt like I was in Italy while wearing this outfit and it made me feel so good! Even if you aren’t feeling like wearing a hat this big, try a smaller straw hat with some embellishments like this one.

2. Think strappy
Strappy sandals are a huge trend this summer. There is something about the sleek, barely there design that makes you think luxury. I knew that my Prada pair would go perfectly with this dress and instantly makes it look more expensive. I’ve linked to some more affordable strappy sandal options below that still create that super luxe look.

3. Make it yours
Add a touch of you in it. For me it was this giant dramatic hat, maybe for you, it’s statement earrings or a super cool pair of sunglasses. Whatever it may be, add in an accessory that truly makes it feel like you. That’s the best way to take a piece that everyone may have, but wear it differently. I guarantee you’ll stand out from the crowd with just a little thought into some unique accessories.

So are you into floral dresses this summer? How will you wear it?
