This Is The Perfect Throw-On Dress, So I'm Buying It In Every Colour Before It Sells Out
When it comes to a capsule wardrobe, versatility is key. That's why, every time I add a new piece to my clothing rotation, it has to pair effortlessly with my stalwart staples, such as my favourite suede jacket or my go-to biker boots. Lately, I've fallen head over heels for a particularly versatile mini dress from Free People. Why? Not only is it versatile enough to work perfectly with my existing favourites, but it also doubles as a blouse and even works as nightwear. Originally designed as part of the Free People Intimately collection, the In This Groove Mini Slip dress features romantic lace detailing and a boho tiered design. One scroll through your chosen social media platform and you'll see a plethora of fashion lovers wearing the mini slip in its carousel of available colours, from Country Air (a crisp white) to striking Poppy Red. For my part, I'm half tempted to snap up the Limon Ice iteration just before my trip to Seville later this month. 1. In This Groove Mini Slip, Tofu Price: £108 Shop the off-white tofu version of the slip dress and pair it with brown cowboy boots for a touch of western charm. The ubiquity of the Free People slip dress shouldn't come as a surprise, given its ability to be worn both off and on the couch. Lately, thanks to the likes ofIf Only If, we've seen an increase in well-dressed women wearing nightgown-adjacent dresses beyond the bedroom. This can loosely be traced back to the runway, with Chloé endorsing loose-fitting, lace dresses for spring/summer 2025. Of course, its versatility doesn't end there. Plenty of fashion influencers have chosen to style the frothy dress as a blouse, layering the slip mini on top of a boxy white t-shirt and flared, noughties-style jeans. To finish the outfit, wear with a pair of tassel-style loafers or bold retro trainers for a pop of colour. Then, accessorise accordingly: wear a headscarf for a chic twist or opt for square lens sunglasses for a cool-girl touch. Alternatively, wear it on its own as intended, and inject western charm with a pair of cowboy boots. For errand runs, sling a Dragon Diffusion tote bag over your shoulder, and for dinner plans, opt for a small, stylish clutch such as the Fendi Spy bag. For now, though, shop the Free People dress below, before it sells out. 2. In This Groove Mini Slip, Olive Price: £108 For a muted pop of colour, opt for the olive version. Layer with gold necklaces and wear with gold rings and bangles. The chunkier, the better. 3. In This Groove Mini Slip, Parfait Price: £108 The parfait pink iteration is ultra feminine and will work well with knitwear once the weather turns cooler. 4. In This Groove Mini Slip, Limon Ice Price: £108 Have a last-minute summer trip planned? The Limon ice iteration of the mini slip is especially refreshing. 5. In This Groove Mini Slip, Poppy Red Price: £108 Bright and bold, the poppy red version is a great choice for the summer months. 6. In This Groove Mini Slip, Aloe Wash Price: £108 This cool green colour is great for trips abroad. The only accessory you'll need is a mint chocolate chip ice cream. 7. In This Groove Mini Slip, Black Price: £108 Keep it classic and chic with the black version of the slip dress. Pair with cool-girl leather look jackets or suede blazers.

Boden's 'extremely comfortable' and 'gorgeous' dress now 25% off
A dress from Boden, described as "extremely comfortable" and "gorgeous" by some shoppers, is now 25% off in the retailer's sale. The Amara Embroidered Jersey Dress was £120 but is now £90 with the code '7N7G', offering a £30 save for customers. The dress comes in a petite or regular fit, available in UK sizes 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, 18, 20 and 22. You can purchase the dress in a Navy Embroidery colour, Pink Peony, Poppy Red and Pink Peony as well as the Deep Sea and Meadowsweet Pink colour, which are all discounted. The Amara dress has an "intricate" colour-contrast embroidery. The top of the dress has a notched V-neck and puff sleeves. In true Boden fashion, the skirt also has pockets and a tiered hemline. The dress is made out of 100% cotton and is machine washable. According to Boden, it has a flattering fit and flare shape, with the length finishing at mid calf and the sleeves reaching elbow length. The clothing also comes with a detachable self-fabric belt. From superstar gigs to cosy pubs, find out What's On in Wales by signing up to our newsletter here. The dress has received a 3.5 rating out of five stars so far, based on 14 reviews. With Boden being a slightly higher than average price for its fashion pieces, it's always worth trawling their sales. But if you still want to get something less than £50 you could purchase Next's Love & Roses Navy Flutter Sleeve Tired 100% Cotton Midi Dress for £44. Or with an even cheaper price tag, you could buy Bright Blue Floral Embroidered Sleeve Tiered Midi Dress from New Look for £35.99. One reviewer noted that they had to size up, but were overall happy with their purchase. They said: "I am used to Boden sizing now so although a 14 in high street shops I went for a 12 and it fits perfectly. "It's super comfortable and so gorgeous - wore it for the first time yesterday and got lots of compliments from strangers!" Another customer also said they had received compliments in the dress and said: "This dress is absolute perfection. The fabric and embroidery quality is excellent. It is heavy and well made, but still very comfortable. "I love the pockets, and the length is just right, hitting just above the ankle (I am 5'4" for reference). I got several compliments the first time I wore it!" While another reviewer had this to say: "This dress is delightful and I feel delightful wearing it! The fabric is comfortable and forgiving. Truly my new favorite closet item." But the dress wasn't popular for everyone. One shopper said: "I was so excited to try this on, was already planning to get both the teal and the pink. The colour (teal) was amazing, however that's the only positive. "The material is much too heavy for summer, it seems more suited for autumn. The cut and flares from waist down makes it a little frumpy also. "I just don't understand how anyone could wear this on a sunny summer day without being hot. I bought from a retailer".
