It may be winter, but I'm already starting to think about Spring enough that I don't really want to wear bulky knits all the time. Of course I love a cozy sweater, but sometimes it's nice to feel feminine in a dress without freezing to death or looking like I'm dressed for a blizzard. Hotsquash to the rescue with their Warm Collection featuring all sorts of pieces, including dresses, that are warm without the bulk. I'm a big fan of Hotsquash dresses... They're cute, easy to care for and there's a style to suit most body types. 

Using a special hidden technology, Hotsquash Warm Collection pieces promise to keep you warm while regulating your temperature, feature anti-odour technology so there's no embarrassing stinky problem and they dry quickly, so laundering and travel are a breeze!

I feel like I can never have too many little black dresses because they're just too easy and work well with my everyday life, so I decided to try the False Wrap Fit 'N Flare Dress and it's already becoming a valuable addition to my wardrobe. I love the full skirt and the lack of bulk makes layering easy. I can wear this dress on its own, over a tank, under a cardigan... There are so many options. There's also a belt that ties around the back, but I've been having some fun experimenting there too with a double wrap to tie it in front for a more 70's wrap dress look or simply turning it around and tying the bow in the front-side closer to the hip. My favorite thing about this dress is quite possibly that it has pockets and they're deep. I can throw keys, an ID, my travel card and a lipstick in these pockets and because of the fullness of the skirt, they don't even show, making this pretty much the best dress ever for busy girls on the go. I also love that I have wadded this up, folded it and squished it into my wardrobe, but there's not a wrinkle in sight. This dress was made for being thrown into a suitcase for a holiday or weekend getaway and it's so easy to wear. 

The Hotsquash False Wrap Fit 'N Flare Dress is a steal at just £85 and well worth the investment. It's machine washable and dries so quickly that it requires neither tumble drying or ironing. To shop this piece and others in the Warm Collection or for more information, visit www.hotsquash.com.
