How To Wear Silk This Summer

Silk is always a good choice for warmer months; it's natural, breathable and looks gorgeous. But like many fashion trends there is a balance to getting it just right. Silk can also be a little pricey, and the trick is to find a piece that you can wear for a whole range of occasions.

This article will help you find your perfect silk look, whether it's for everyday or a special occasion.

Silk Maxi Dresses

The maxi dress is an ideal way to wear the silk trend this spring. Maxi dresses have been increasingly popular over the last few seasons, and they're set to be an absolute must have this season.

Choose either a patterned or plain silk maxi dress, or even better a silk/ linen mix for a summery feel and add either sandals or heels depending on what you're wearing it for.

Silk and linen make a particularly good mix as you get all the luxury of silk, with the crispness of linen, and both materials are breathable making them great for summer, plus the combination makes the material much more of a middle ground. Silk can appear very formal and linen very casual if you're not careful.

Silk Occasionwear

Silk is the perfect choice when it comes to special occasions, and it's so easy to wear. But don't just stick to obvious occasion looks, you can stand out in something as simple as a silk shirt or blouse in this season's colour. Or even a silk and linen mix skirt, the A-line skirt often gets overlooked in favour of more formal occasionwear, but it's an easy style to wear and can look fabulous in a formal situation.

Pick an a-line silk or silk and linen skirt in a neutral colour and dress it up for perfect wedding guest style. A grey skirt with a nude top and matching court shoes is just perfect for a summer wedding; just keep the skirt around knee length for a modest and stylish look. You could even switch to pair of strappy heels and glittery cami for the evening.

Another option is a silk blouse with smart trousers and heels. Choose a sleeveless blouse and add high waisted trousers for a laid-back occasion look. Alternatively a patterned silk top is a great choice - kimonos and batwing tops work brilliantly in silk thanks to the flow of the fabric, it automatically lends itself to these graceful styles. Choose a pattern that flows with the fabric and pick out any colours with some matching heels and a neutral bag.

Silk in the office

Don't forget, silk isn't reserved for special occasions, you could use it to spice up your office wardrobe by adding a silk shirt, wear it with cigarette trousers and court shoes for perfect office chic. You could even break out that a-line skirt with flat pumps for a seriously stylish look.
