Shirtdresses are so versatile & comfortable to wear, but they aren’t just for the warmer days. This is a perfect year-round piece. Still taking advantage of the unseasonably warm fall days here in New England, I just added a duster coat for a super cool vibe. I think this long, loose coat is so “Lara Croft Tomb Raider” cool & is also warm enough for this transitional time of year. I typically lean towards casual for my stylistic approach, but when I started to play around with other options in my closet, I couldn’t believe the number of variations to top:
- My Go-to: casual with sneakers & cross-body bag
- Simple/classic: chambray shirtdress, fedora, men’s-inspired watch
- All-American: nothing is better than adding a denim jacket & Keds
- Tough enough: leather moto jacket & combat booties
- Girly: simple, thin belt, dainty layered necklaces, strappy heels
- Pretty in prints: mix & match patterns
- Warm for winter: Layer a long, chunky, knit on top for extra warmth
- Bare Legs, No?: Add leggings or skinny jeans if you don’t want to bare your legs
- Shirt + Shirt: Hey, layer a button down shirt over your shirtdress
- Unexpected fav: my thick, leather sash with chunky platform heels
- Future experiment: Can’t wait to layer a fringe skirt on top
There are so many other ways to mix up the styling. Dig deep in your closets, choose unique items, interesting accessories, pair fabulous shoes, have fun & get creative! What’s your head-to-toe look?
