Winterizing a Summer Dress



Blazer: H&M | Sweater: Abercrombie (old) | Dress: H&M (see it styled for summer) (similar here) | Scarf: Target | Tights: Hue (similar style here) | Belt: Ann Taylor | Sunglasses: Chloe (currently at an amazing discount) | Boots: Nine West (old, similar here) | Bag: Rebecca Minkoff (similar here) | Necklace: Jenni Jewel

It's about this time of year that I begin to feel a little tired of my winter wardrobe and begin looking longingly at my summer dresses as I pull on my usual sweater, jeans, and boots. The dress I'm wearing here was one of my favorites this summer, and I'd been wanting to restyle it for winter for quite a while. A few layers later, my summer dress was winter-ready, and I was a happy girl.

  3. I love the title of this post, haha! The most important thing about a dress that I usually look for is how versatile it would be during both winter AND spring because I want to be able to wear them any time of the year! This is a great idea to style a dress for the winter days.
