Editing the perfectly curated bank holiday wardrobe is a fine art, you need to be conscious of space so opting for hard working pieces like jeans that can work for day or evening looks are a must. A dress that can be worn as both a top and a dress is a great little hack also, this red number below is from our fave new online store Lindex?the latest, best-kept Scandi secret and would be perfect for strolling around the streets of a new city, then just swap jeans for black pumps and you are ready for a cocktail and some people watching.
