What I wore today - grey midi dress and McQueen scarf

The weather continues to be glorious over here in the UK, it was pretty muggy though today so popped my new Primark grey midi dress on as its lightweight and airy to do some shopping in town, i also went for lunch with my boyfriend which was lovely. It's got short sleeves and sits just below the knee, i love anything in grey marl and it was in the sale for the absolute bargain price of £5.00 so couldn't resist! I've been a bit dubious of the midi dress style as I'm quite short (5 foot 4 inches), so wasn't sure if I could pull it off - would love to know what you all think please. My little wedge suede booties are from Topshop, I've had them a while and still love them so much! They're really comfy and barely feel like wedges at all, they're just the right height too. To pull the whole outfit together I wore it with my multicolour Alexander McQueen scarf - I think it's one of the best things I've ever bought, pound per wear and all that!
Would love to know your thoughts on the midi dress style.
What are you wearing to keep cool in the hot weather? Xx
