Reader Question:
"What is an easy way to change-up my favorite summer dress so that I can wear it in the fall/winter?"
Well...In TWO easy steps, you can continue getting mileage out of your favorite summer staples during the cold season!
SUMMER:
Dress: Nordstrom
Belt: Nordstrom
Necklace: Vintage
Heels: Jessica Simpson (who I swear is pregnant right now...am I right?)
FALL-READY:
Step 1: Add tights or leggings.
Consider color and texture for a cozy, weather-appropriate look.
Step 2: Add a comfortable sweater or wrap.
Here I added a cashmere sweater that is light but very cozy. Adding the skinny belt keeps it in place and adds a fun element. Style Tip - the thicker/chunkier the sweater, the wider the belt should be!
A few other considerations:
- First determine whether the print and color of the dress works for fall/winter.
- Stay away from transitioning dresses with a super light fabric (a true sundress isn't going to look appropriate in the snow!)
- Boots are fun to pair with dresses (see my photo HERE featuring the same dress!)
- Layering + layering + layering!
The view I woke up to this morning...I got cold just looking outside! :-)
But seeing this view made me truly realize (and finally accept) that summer is over. Sigh...! I guess it's time to fully embrace a new season of clothes.
So are you transitioning dresses from summer to fall?
