Wearing Dresses
Wearing a dress makes getting ready for an event much easier than wearing a skirt and a blouse. You have one item to choose unless you are trying to find an accessory to go along with it. You don’t need to see if the proportions of the blouse fit the proportion of the skirt.
The downside of wearing a dress is that there is only one garment to focus on and if there is anything wrong with it, it is more obvious. You can hide imperfections with a coverup or other accessories, but it can still be noticeable. With a skirt and blouse, they can be hidden much easier.
Dresses can be any color, pattern, and style and you need to see which one will be best for the event that you are going to. There are rules about white dresses that have been around for years, but you don’t always need to follow them anymore. You can wear what you want, where you want to wear it.
This article will help you to learn more about different ways to style your dresses. It will help you to see which style is best for what event. You can also do more research to find the information you are seeking.
Ways to Style Your Dress
- Black Coat – A long black coat is the best covering for most dresses, but you must match the length of the coat with the length of the dress. You don’t want them to match exactly because it brings heaviness to the outfit. You can make the outfit more stylish for an evening event by adding heels and a cute clutch.This would be good for an evening event that requires you to wear your coat, especially an outdoor event. You can also wear this without the coat for an indoor occasion. You want to be comfortable wherever you are.
- Graphic Style – You want to avoid any garish accessories with a graphic dress because it will take away from the simple beauty. You can pair it with a trench coat and high boots to make it stand out even more. You want a plain purse to go along with, but the purse can have stylistic decorations on it.
- Floral – You don’t want to pair a floral print with a denim jacket because that is a very dated style. Instead, you should pair it with a faux fur-trimmed jacket to make it a sleeker look. This look will be good for an afternoon tea or baby shower.If you pair this with tights and high heels, this could also be good for something in the evening. It could also be good for a formal meeting at work. You can decide which occasion would be best for this style.
- Denim and Knit – If you must wear a denim jacket, you should wear it with a knit midi. It should be a feminine fitting dress that goes just below the knees to make it look just right. The jacket should be cropped and maybe even have a little fringe to go along with it.This style would do well for an afternoon on the town or on a date with your best friend. This could also be good for a workday at an office or school. You can look very professional in this outfit.
- Tailored Girliness – A short feminine frock that has a girly color will go well with a masculine looking blazer. Heels and tights can be added to the ensemble for a cool fall day. This outfit would be good for those fall get-togethers that require a little dressing up.It could also be good for work situations that encourage you to have a style that is more professional. The blazer will make it look even more professional. This can also be good for an afternoon date.
- Mesh – For an everyday situation, a mesh dress can work well. A nice peacoat that has a color that is complementary to the frock can be worn with it. See more here. Add opaque tights and a satchel bag to complete the ensemble.
