From Summer to Winter

Ladies, do you have that dress you just absolutely love that you do not dare to part with it as the coldness of the winter months creep upon you? I have plenty of them. This purple number is one of those dresses. During the summer months I usually paired the dress with a pair of sandals suitable to wear to work and play in. Obviously this would not do as the temperature dropped. The dress was already thin, I knew I had to pair the dress with something that could make it wearable in December. 

My love of tights and blazers prevailed. I kept similar accessories (the belt, silver necklace, sunglasses). I added a black blazer, darker purple tights - playing up my favorite color, and instead of gray sandals I chose gray suede pumps. 


Honestly, add a blazer to any dress or summer ensemble and you can turn it into a winter staple. Also, a pair of tights could mean freezing your butt off or being chilly. If you love to layer, don't forget about scarves which immediately create a fresh look. Again with layering, try adding a long sleeve turtleneck or crew neck underneath your dresses or paired with your floral skirts. 

Give it a try! Take a picture and let me see how you updated your summer wardrobe!
