Five Ways to Wear Dresses In Winter
Dresses are your easy, one-step solution to dressing all winter long. They look great with boots, coats and all your other cold-weather accessories. Here’s how to look stylish in your dresses this winter.
Get Booted Up
Show off those great-looking winter boots by wearing them with a dress. Thigh-high boots look sexy and modern with a miniskirt. A long, flowing skirt with a pair of chunky ankle boots gives you all the laid-back Bohemian spirit you need. A classic pair of riding boots can dress up jeans, skirts and all your women’s dress clothes. If you’re worried about staying warm, wear tights or opaque stockings. They provide more coverage and warmth than regular pantyhose.
Keep It Long
When you’re battling the elements, you don’t want any exposed skin. If you’re wearing a dress, you might worry about keeping your legs warm. Try winter-weight tights and add a long, flowing topper that will keep your legs covered. A tailored wool coat never goes out of style and goes with everything. Change things up with a chunky duster cardigan for a chic, dramatic look, or a belted trench for a classic look. You can wear these long toppers with skirts and dresses of any length.
Love Your Layers
If you love one of your lightweight, sleeveless summer dresses, you don’t have to give it up in the winter. You can use a warm-weather dress in the winter if you layer and accessorize correctly. Start with a close-fitting tee or turtleneck in a lightweight fabric. Layer the dress over it. Add a blazer or a cardigan. Now add opaque tights or leggings. A scarf, gloves and winter coat complete your transformation.
Go For Patterns and Colors
Don’t use winter as an excuse to dress in drab monochrome colors. While wearing all black or all white is striking, it’s also fun to play with patterns and colors. Animal prints, plaids and floral patterns are still popular. Try topping your little black dress with a faux leopard coat. Add a moto jacket to a floral dress to give it a little edginess.
Get Your Kicks
If you’re not a fan of boots, you may wonder what your winter shoe alternatives are. There are many. If you want to wear flats or heels, wear opaque tights or leggings to keep your legs from freezing. Consider adding leg warmers for a dash of ‘80s magic. Wearing sneakers with dresses is an adorable trend that isn’t going away. Your favorite white, retro and colored sneakers will make any dress more casual. It’s rare to find a hot fashion trend that’s this comfortable, so take advantage of this one while you can.
