7 ways to wear your favorite summer dress in winter
For those who thought that the pile of summer candies could be hidden away in the closet for the next six months, they are mistaken. Because although it really seems too cold for your favorite summer dress right now, there is always the layering art. And if you're wondering how that works: I've outlined the 7 best options for you. From team over-the-knee boots (bye panty) to blazers and trousers: copying and pasting is all you need to do.
Crazy for the collar
A styling trick that has been around for a while, but has been applied far too little in recent years is the collar under the dress. Preferably in a thinner, stretchy fabric, this basic is a must in the closet of every fashion girl.

Plan B
Maybe it's not the first jacket you reach for in combination with a dress, but do give it a try. You'll see that it looks amazing in an oversized model over your oh-so-loved swaying summer piece.

5. Oversized blazer, €59,95 Zara
6. Double-breasted blazer, €29,99 H&M
Slip it up
Although the grandpa style pullover might still struggle with its dusty image, the fashion crowd has long decided: it's cool, warm, and comfy. But in our case, it's especially a fantastic combination with your favorite summer dress.

8. Ribbed slipover, €29,99 H&M

Forever the jeans
Sounds crazy, but that's not how it looks. A not-too-long dress with a nice straight leg, split jeans, or a cautious ripped is the jeans your new kind of panty. Sneakers underneath and you're ready in one go.

Boots 2.0.
Don't fancy the above option, but the thought of a panty gives you the creeps? Then I suggest investing in boots. High boots. Very high boots. Who says bare legs can't work in winter? Solved: we just warm them up with these amazing chunky boots.

Little heater for your body
Wearing a coat over your somewhat summery clothing choice (because: cold hold) is a bit exaggerated, but the body warmer on the other hand... Last year we saw it cautiously appear, but this year we know for sure: the body warmer is back in business and a match made in heaven with your summer candy.

Fashion magic
Why go crazy buying panty-proof skirts when you have enough swaying summer pieces hanging in your closet? Don't do that anymore. Try wearing that new sweater over a floral dress from last season. It really looks the best.
