Warm evenings are not something we are too familiar with here in the UK, however on the occasional toasty eve or when we venture on holiday in search of a good dose of sun, dressing for anything above 15 degrees is somewhat of a foreign concept. I do sometimes find it daunting styling a good evening outfit that is so minimal as I love layering and the security of a cover up or two. Fabric choice, cut and colour all become far more important as practicality and style engage in a mini tug of war. Whilst in Rome I chose to wear this black dress which is fairly loose fitting and is made from a light enough fabric to ensure I didn’t look like I had run a marathon at the end of the walk to the restaurant. I chose to wear my hair up to keep cool and opted for a block heel which makes a strappy shoe far more comfortable to walk in.
