This is why you should snap up Coleen Nolan's Phase Eight midi shirt dress before it's gone
Her chic look needs very little style, making it such an easy wear
Sunny weather and floral dresses go hand in hand, and those in bright colours or with cheerful prints are even better in warm weather. Coleen Nolan nailed what to wear in the heat in this elegant and breezy design for an appearance on Loose Women.
Her Phase Eight Trinity heart and floral midi shirt dress was an excellent example of chic heatwave dressing, with short puffed sleeves, a midi-length hem and an optional self-tie fabric belt. Coleen's pale blue and green dress was undoubtedly one of the best summer dresses for versatility.
Easy to style up for an occasion, or wear more casually too, Coleen paired hers with Next’s gold Forever Comfort plait crossover wedges. The metallic gold straps acted as a playful alternative to a more neutral style while remaining just as sophisticated, cementing her outfit as an elegant, all-occasion look.
With gently puffed sleeves and a neat, V-shaped neckline creating an elegant and ultra-feminine shape, Coleen's Phase Eight midi dress is a gorgeous piece to wear for any occasion this summer. Dress it up or down and let the colours and pattern do all the talking.
Coleen's Next wedges have received many glowing reviews, with shoppers reporting that they are 'comfortable to wear,' while also being 'stylish' and of 'good quality.' As a bonus, they also boast Next's Forever Comfort cushioning that moulds to the foot and offers 'superior support.'
Crafted from 100% cotton, this short-sleeved button-down shirt dress offers maximum breathability, perfect for hot weather. In white and green, this design has a similar look and feel to Coleen's, albeit without the belt. It's an ideal choice for what to wear to Wimbledon this year.
Mint Velvet's clothing sells out so fast, but don't forget to check out the brand's accessories too. These gold wedges are ideal for sunny summer holidays teamed with linen trousers and floaty dresses. The gold palette makes them easy to style, too.
While more forna than flora, this leaf-printed shirt dress gives a nod to the colour palette of Coleen's dress, and similarly has a short sleeve for maximum breathability and a slender drawcord belt to help synch in and highllight your silhouette.
With a lightweight raffia flatform sole giving these sandals a playful, summer feel, the metallic leather straps adds a boost of shine that still feels quite neutral and is thus incredibly versatile. Reviews say they 'look great' and are 'very comfy.'
As well as being one of the best British clothing brands, Phase Eight is also a high-street store that’s loved by celebrities. A long list of names, including Susanna Reid, Lorraine Kelly and Sara Davies, have been seen sporting its designs recently and, in particular, the brand's midi and maxi dresses.
Phase Eight makes great summer dresses, and Coleen’s is a standout option. A universally flattering style, thanks to the nipped-in waist, airy short sleeves and timeless silhouette, it also incorporates two major fashion colour trends for 2026: blue and green.
Together, these trending tones are one of the chicest colour combinations loved by stylists, and Phase Eight has made it incredibly easy to style them together with this dress. The pale blue acts as a soft base while the bright green florals create a high contrast, delivering a striking finish.
