How to Find the Perfect Versatile Fall Dress
If you love shopping in stores better than online, then here’s exactly what to pay attention to when looking for the perfect versatile fall dress:
- Choose timeless fall colors like chocolate brown, burgundy, camel, Oatmeal, and ivory — they mix and match with your existing wardrobe effortlessly. I also have a guide on the perfect fall color combinations to try.
- Look for easy layering potential like dresses that work with blazers, trench coats, cardigans, or tall boots. (This will give you endless styling options)
- Stick to high-quality fabrics like Wool or even Cashmere, or satin, just flattering fabrics that will keep you warm and feel more elevated.
- Opt for transitional lengths and sleeves (You could even re-purpose some of your favorite summer dresses and style them into gorgeous fall outfits)
- Pick pieces you can dress up or down, a knit dress is the most versatile option in my opinion, and can work with sneakers for brunch or heels for dinner. One dress will give you multiple looks and options.
- Go for silhouettes that flatter your body(This is something I can’t tell you, you have to know for yourself, but make sure you look for something that looks proportional to your body shape and features)
- Bonus tip: If the dress also works for Thanksgiving and a Cocktail Wedding, it’s a keeper.
