WHEN Mother Nature is dishing out four seasons in one day, it's often a struggle to know what to wear.
Will the clothes you pick out one sunny morning look out of place when heavens have opened by home time?
Such are the vagaries of our weather, it's no surprise that Glasgow's value chains like Primark, H&M, New Look, Matalan and, most recently, Forever 21 really come into their own in summer.
Who wants to spend three figures on a floaty silk dress or a pristine white blazer when it's likely to be ruined by a sudden downpour?
That's why the new season designs at Dunnes Stores are well worth a look.
Not only does the Irish-based retailer offer eye-wateringly good value on its summer dresses and separates, it has recently taken a bold new style direction for its in-house brands to make this season's collections stand out from the fast fashion crowd.
The Savida label is designed for over-25s who want a little more substance in their style. Think 60s-inspired shift dresses, curve-accentuating peplum tops and pastel city shorts.
The Gallery label, meanwhile, is for the 40-plus shopper who isn't ready to rely on supermarket dashes to update their wardrobes.
It includes work trousers, lace frocks and casual knitwear, while its higher-end occasionwear styles boast fitted dresses, lightweight coats and palazzo pants.
