Get the bodycon look for simple stylish dressing

body-con.jpgThe best thing about the bodycon look is that it's maximum style, minimum effort. The main obstacle to getting this look right is cost, because the basic ingredients need to be good quality - but you can get it absolutely to perfection with one strong tunic dress doing all the work.

The best I've seen in the shops is Whistles' asymetric zip dress, pictured left. It's made from the lightest fabric that despite its sheer quality, doesn't go see-through when worn and only shows of the bits you want on display. It's not cheap at £195, but it's the sort of staple you'll be strugglging not to wear every day once it's in your wardrobe. Team it with a pair of black or grey leggings for instant chic: American Apparel have lots of styles to choose from just now, in fabrics that last and last.

Of all the music festivals Benicassim is the one where you can guarantee sun, so throw caution to the wind and strip off!

Short shorts are given an edgy twist with an acid wash, and look great with the bright elastic sandals. The tortoiseshell sunglasses bring an air of decorum to the clashing outfit, and the white bumbag is very necessary for keeping all your essential items at hand. Jump through for full product details, and don't forget the sunscreen!

It seems summer has left us momentarily, which is no use when you're staring at a wardrobe full of floaty dresses and shorts! Time for a transition outfit to bridge the gap...

The gold spatter-effect jacket is such a statement piece you can just throw it on & let the rest of the outfit be relatively low key. A simply grey marl tank is indispensable, and the Rag & Bone leggings provide a bit of interest with the subtle panelling. Simple black shoes and a sculptural floral headband from Anna Lou finish off the outfit in style. Jump through for full product links
