Here at Yahoo! Style UK we love nothing more than finding the best buys, stylish numbers, and savvy deals on top-rated items, and wouldn't recommend anything we wouldn't wear, use, eat, or sit on ourselves.

With summer just around the corner, (although it may feel more like winter currently), we're sifting through the online rails in preparation for when the mercury rises, temperatures soar and we can bear to bare our legs once again.

In this new series, we're going to bring you our favourite dresses, every week, that will suit every style, occasion and budget.

So if you haven't already, clear out your closets, and make way for a style overhaul – starting with this Nobody's Child Floral Midaxi Tiered Smock Dress.

Why we rate it

Nobody's Child is a brand I've long been familiar with, but only started wearing in recent months.

We love everything they stand for; chic, simple designs and lightweight, sustainable, timeless pieces, which are always on trend – and it seems we're not the only ones, as Holly Willoughby has previously worn Nobody's Child on This Morning.

It's new in at Marks and Spencer, but I'm adding it to basket now, as I know I'll wear it to death over the coming weeks (and so will my mum, when she 'borrows' it from me).

The Floral Midaxi Tiered Smock Dress, versatile enough to take you from the office or picnics in the park to more formal occasions, such as weddings or christenings.

You can pair it with flat sandals, trainers, and a denim jacket for those chillier summer evenings, or wedge sandals and a straw bag for a garden get-together.

This design has a V-neck crossover front detail, a smocked feature under the bust, (which is super- flattering), and a drop-tiered skirt.

It features flattering, floaty short sleeves, and it's mid-length means it falls midway down the calf.

This design is a loose and relaxed fit, thanks to the soft, sustainably sourced viscose fabric, and comes in a soft blue with white floral print.

The chic design is available in UK dress sizes 6 to 18, and retails for £45 at M&S, as well as on Nobody's Child. Get this gem before it goes!
