Short, Solid Colored Dresses

As the summer season settles in on the city of lights, the fashion on the streets has begun to reflect the fun and ease of a Paris July. Short simple dresses, in solid colors with suggestive cuts seem to be the most popular piece the girls are sporting. 

These dresses are easy to throw on and go.  The fabrics tend to be light and airy such as linen or thin Jersey in order to stay cool in the concrete reflected sun. But as the wind can whip through Paris quite bitterly even on the warm days,  leggings, scarfs, jackets and even turtle neck jerseys are layered with the dresses to make the Parisian girl comfortable even in the shade. 

Most girls like to wear little sandals or ballet slippers for a flirty look. For an 80's touch some girls are wearing a low hanging belt,  short boots or a short jacket. 

The hemlines of these dresses are always above the knee and the color is always solid; no prints or patterns. The colors tend to be subdued. White and blacks tend to the be most popular choice.  Other colors choices range in muted cool tons like grays, blues and greens.

The cut of the dresses vary from romantic to sexy. With the romantic dresses, there are often embroidered details of flowers or lace to add that special summer touch.

The uncomplicated dresses are perfect for the fun, stress-free, travel filled days of summer.
