Choosing a yellow dress is not an easy fashion choice. Easy because combining with other colors can be a little tricky.
The yellow dress is very popular in every summer season. It can be one of your must-have pieces if you know how to perfectly combine it with other parts in your closet.
This garment is often associated with summer as it goes perfectly with tanned skin and long summer days and warm nights.
I have prepared the best ideas for a yellow summer dress outfit for you. Let’s see how you can combine and style it. We’re going to start with the classic and work our way from there.
Keep it simple
If you choose the outfit just like the one in the picture above, you can be sure that you haven’t done anything wrong. Wear a simple long or short yellow dress with black platform sandals that add some edge and you are ready for work or post-work drinks with your co-workers. When it’s cold outside, you can easily add a pair of jeans or a black leather jacket.
Button-down dress
If you ask me, this is the perfect vacation dress. Imagine this dress in southern Italy or in Sicily, a land of yellow fields, turquoise sea and olives just sitting on a beautiful balcony, drinking a cocktail and eating oranges. This dress is made for it.
Boho style
The central piece of the boho style is a long yellow summer dress. It has a huge slit with lace details. This large slit will definitely expose a lot of your skin. My suggestion is to wear it on vacation, over a bikini, or at a pool party with friends. As you can see in the picture Maja Wyh put on a lot of rings and bracelets to complete this boho look in a really efficient way. I wouldn’t recommend this outfit for a leisurely stroll around town.
Flowery all around
When it comes to patterns for summer dresses, if you ask for my opinion, flowers are by far the most popular textile pattern. In the picture above you can see a beautiful floral summer dress with yellow flowers. It is up to you which type of dress you choose: long, short, classy or colorful. As this outfit reflects the boho style, you can wear it at festivals, on vacation or for walks and coffee with friends.
Color block
Color blocking is great for you girls who love to do fashion experiments themselves. Color blocking can add something new and interesting to your style and the way you combine clothes. Designers were crazy about this trend a few seasons ago and still are. There is no better way than pairing your yellow dress with items in bright colors like orange (as in the photo above), pink, purple, red or blue.
It’s time for golden yellow
This gold mid-length flowing dress from Blake Lively is the perfect choice for day or night events. As you can see in the photo above, the dress comes with a waist tie. This is a nice touch as it makes up for the lack of jewelry that you should be careful with when wearing outfits of this color. Jewelry can make it look too golden. Put on some nice sandals and you’re ready to go out!
Ladylike
If you are going to a nighttime event, wedding or any other place where you need to be smartly dressed then this is a dress for you! The cut of this “strapless dress” is quite elegant; The flowers on it are a delicate white color so this dress can be worn for special occasions. You can add a nice black hat or an elegant hat if you are going to a wedding. To complete this elegant summer dress outfit, you can wear a clutch or a small bag.
Wear it with lemons
Yellow summer dress definitely deserves a few lemons on it! If you like patterns on your dress, try to find a lemon textile pattern that Dolce and Gabbana released in their Spring-Summer 2016 collection. There’s nothing more interesting than having lemons on your dress, right? Try not to add too much jewelry because the dress with this pattern makes a statement in itself. Just combine it with beige salon shoes or sandals and you will have the perfect look for day and night.
Conclusion
As you could see, wearing a yellow summer dress isn’t that difficult. It is actually a perfect dress for the warmer months. Perhaps it is best to find a combination that you are most comfortable with and go for it. Don’t try to overdo it. The key is to stay in one color because yellow is strong and vibrant. Mixing with the other colors can easily lead to an error. In addition to color blocking, you can then experiment with the colors.
Be brave, leave the neutrals on the side and try wearing yellow. You will not regret it.
