The appeal of dresses is how easy they are to wear and that they require little to no styling. This is certainly true in summer, however in winter it gets a little trickier as you have the cold to contend with and layers become vital. I personally find myself wearing jeans and trousers with a jumper far more appealing than my usual uniform, a dress. However there are some styling tricks that you can do to make your dresses more winter appropriate, and below I’ve listed 8 in particular that I’ve saved recently.
If you opt for a simple slip dress or black dress, you can use it as a clever layering piece and wear it over rollnecks or long-sleeved tops. A dress, blazer and boots will be a trio that won’t need any introduction to you, however it’s a classic winter outfit that will always look elegant. The key to making a dress work hard in winter is the right pair of boots, and below there are several styles that look amazing, including chunky hiker boots, cream knee-highs and white ankle boots. If you are in need of some styling inspiration, keep scrolling for 8 cool ways to wear a dress this winter.
