The New Look dress you'll want in your new-season wardrobe.

A versatile midi is an absolute must-have for autumn and we have found the dream piece. The Black Floral Chiffon Midi Smock Dress is priced at €34.99 and it's the type of item you can style so many different ways. From ankle boots to runners, a leather jacket or a cosy knit, sandals and a blazer...there are numerous outfit options and we can't wait to get planning. You could wear this during the day for a chic autumnal look but by adding accessories and changing shoes, it would be perfect for a desk to dinner look. Now is the time to start planning what key pieces you want to invest in for the season ahead and a patterned dress like this one will ensure value for money, especially with the amount of times you'll wear it. In fact, the patterned midi dress is fast becoming one of the most popular pieces on the high-street and there's a huge amount of choice at the moment. Dark floral styles are becoming very popular for autumn, case in point the New Look dress featured here but there are lots of other prints available too including leopard and zebra patterns. Midi skirts are also trending and there's no sign of the popular polka dot trend going out of style anytime soon. We love how Rachel Stevens, formerly of S Club 7, has paired her midi with what looks like a slogan t-shirt, an easy but super stylish look that's great for those 'I have absolutely nothing to wear' mornings...that's every day then.
