Summer Dresses: Turn Up the Heat in a Style That Suits Your Shape

I went to a BBQ on Saturday and I wore a dress.

Yes, my legs were out in all their glory (ok, they'd had a little help in the form of a bottle but they were still MY legs), I'd slapped on the SPF and I was, as Nina Simone might say, feeeeeelin' good.

To me, there is just something about a crisp, new dress that shouts Summer.

So in case Saturday was the high point of the sunny season, I decided to work quickly and show you some of the best dresses on the high street. There loads of different styles to suit different body shapes - strappy to show off arms, waisted to highlight curves, tunic to hide a tum or skater style to show off those pins.

What kind of Summer style do you prefer? Does anything in our gallery catch your (sunglasses-covered) eye? And did you have a BBQ this weekend?! To the comments!
