Congratulations to the winner of yesterday's 'Dress Diaries' Blog competition - Tracey Belcher! Tracey's entry read:

I am going to a wedding in New Orleans
The type of wedding you usually see in your dreams
At a beautiful Oak Plantation on the Mississippi
So I need a dress that is more country than city
I would pair this with some lovely red shoes
and a matching bag is what I would choose
A bolero style jacket just in case it gets cold
and some pretty jewellery delicate and gold

We'd like to thank everyone who took the time to enter, we've had a great time reading them this morning! Keep checking back for more great competitions coming your way soon!

I love this one http://www.landsend.co.uk/Women%27s-Stretch-Piqu%C3%A9-Polo-Dress/P_20806,en_GB,pd.html

I think its lovely in navy - so stylish I would team it with a white cardi for when it went a little colder at night and white summer sandals x

[Gemma Turner]

Hard choice, but I love the Modal Empire Waist Dress! It's one of those dresses that you can wear with glitz and glam for a big night out!!! Or with some nice sandals and a wide brimmed hat for the summer loving look :)))

[Martina]

I like the chalk poppies empire waist dress and I would wear it all summer with my white sandals.

I really love the Women's Regular Floral Cotton Lawn Empire Waist Dress in the Chalk Poppies colour, and I'd pair it with a pair of red espadrilles and a cropped denim jacket, to keep it casual and comfortable for a British spring day!

[John Smith]

I would love the green cotton modal empire waist dress. It's a great colour and I'd pair it with a White cotton cardi and some tan wedge heels

[Joanne Sanderson]

I love the floral Cotton Lawn Empire Waist Dress in Chalk Poppies. I've always wanted an excuse to buy some nice red court shoes and teamed with these a slim red belt,with perhaps a straw sunhat it would be the perfect outfit to wear for my upcoming trip to America

[Katherine L]

I would LOVE to add the Women's Patterned Three Quarter Sleeve Shirtdress into my wardrobe! It is quintessentially "Hampton Chic" .. for all the days I hope to stroll the seaside this summer. This colourful dress is a wardrobe staple with loads of character.

Whether worn with the fun Tape Yarn Cable Cardigan or the more casual Long Sleeve Cotton Shaker Stitch Cardigan, this dress is a no-brainer: it kicks your wardrobe up a notch FOR you! I'm such a dress and cardigan girl .. and if paired with a pair of T-strap sandals, I'd be more than happy to stay in summer forever :)

During the in-between seasons, this dress would be fab with some colourful tights, boots and even a chunky sweater on top. So much fun!

I would like the Women's Cotton/Modal Empire Waist Dress, I would wear it with my flip flops when I go on holiday.

[Laura Carroll]

I love the Floral Sateen Wrap Dress - such a pretty lilac colour and lovely fabric! I'd team it with a skinny belt and my burnished gold sandals for a classy but relaxed look at summer garden parties!

[Vanessa Cox]

I would choose the Floral Cotton Lawn Empire Waist Dress with the chalk poppies design and I would team it with a pair of summer pastel ballerinas, a wooden necklace & a short sleeve cardi just in case I'm a bit cold! To complete this fab outfit I will add the very summery Havana refined straw tote bag! Et voila :)

[Kelly]

I just love the Women's Regular Cotton/Modal Wrap Dress in Wild Cherry because it's so flattering and summery and it would be perfect for any occassion.I'd combine this dress with my white kitten heels and matching bag then complete the look with my new cropped,white demin jacket.I think the white would contrast brilliantly with the shade of red and help me stand out in the crowd.

[Kirsten Murphy]

I would choose the Navy Dot Cotton Lawn Empire Waist Dress, team it with a pair of super sweet red heels & put my hair up adding fresh flowers and wear it to my friend's summer wedding!

I would choose the Regular Cotton/Modal Wrap Dress in Regent because it looks bang on trend and also very comfortable. I think it would be brilliant for travelling in as it looks very accommodating. Regent is a vivid colour too and it would look great teemed with the peep-toe sandals.

[Linda Hobbis]

I'd love the sleeveless patterned pique v necked dress. http://www.landsend.co.uk/Women%27s-Sleeveless-Patterned-Piqu%C3%A9-V-neck-Dress/P_21565,en_GB,pd.html.

I'd wear it with a denim jacket and some funky colour block wedges.

[Ali Thorpe]

I would love the Stretch Pique Polo Dress in green shoots. The colour alone shouts 'summertime' and, teamed with a lightweight white cardigan, white-framed sunglasses and white strappy sandals, this is a dress to live, love and laugh in all summer long!

[Susannah Swindell]

I want the cotton/modal wrap dress in the lovely blue that I could wear with snazzy fitflops and a sunhat, or I could dress it up for the evening with blue and gold jewellery and gold shoes. I'm all set there with my fantasies!
