For a quick moment there, it felt like spring. Sadly, temperatures have dipped back down and the winter coat is back out. But for a brief time there the weather was warm enough to wear and start thinking about dressing for spring. Spring is one of my favourite seasons to dress for. I love re-introducing bright colours, pastels, fun prints and most importantly dresses. I feel like the past year or so I have started a love affair with dresses. They are just so easy to throw on and head out the door. Most of them are usually pretty comfortable too, which is a big "yes" for me! So to introduce dresses (without tights and heavy winter coats) back into my daily outfit I thought of three different ways I could do this, and not freeze to death!
I love the idea of wearing a sweater over top of a dress. I think this creates such an easy casual look and really revamps the look of a dress. Another way to use a sweater and a dress together are layering the dress over top the sweater. If you have a dress that is more fitted on the top then this could definitely work well!
An obvious choice is to layer a jacket over top of a dress. This is a great spring look, especially when using a denim jacket to layer. Denim jackets and light coloured dresses just scream spring to me. Another great way to accomplish this look is by layering a detailed jacket or structured blazer over a simple dress, this can create a more formal look too!
A third way to re-introduce dresses into your wardrobe is picking dresses with mid to long sleeves. These dresses are great because you can simply throw them on and go, no need to layer! A lot of long sleeve dresses can be found in a wrap style, which is really flattering on most (if not all) body types!
