Three ways to wear your favourite summer dresses in winter

Don’t pack away your favourite dresses yet – here are three ways to wear summer dresses in winter. 

I’m all about maximising what’s in your wardrobe. When you fill your wardrobe with pieces that you can wear most of the year, you’ll always have something to wear.

Taking your summer dresses into winter is all about clever layering. Think Sara Lee, layer upon layer. You want to layer for warmth, yes, but you want the layering to add interest and elevate your outfits.

It’s about having fun with pieces you already own and experimenting to find new ways to wear them. 

I’ve taken a trans-seasonal shirt dress, a boho dress and officewear dress, added layers and taken each piece from summer to winter.

Look in your wardrobe to see if you have similar pieces to what I’ve featured. You might just find a new way to wear them.
