It’s already early May and spring is in the air. And if you’re a little bit like me, you have already pulled out all your spring/summer clothes, in great hopes you’ll wear them asap. I mean who wants to see another freaking sweater or wool cardigan at this time of the year?
But what happens when it is still too cold outside for your favorite spring dress? The dilemma of “I want to wear a dress… but it’s still cold” is something that most of us have experienced. And if you are a dress/skirt enthusiast, you usually wear your favorite dress anyway, only to suffer the frigid consequences later. Not anymore! Say yes to the dress, with these simple tips on how to wear a spring dress when it’s still cold:
#1 Layer it
It’s all about proper layering here, and the options are endless! You can wear your spring dress with a turtleneck underneath, over pants and under a warm jacket, over jeans, or with sneakers and a long cardi-coat like I did here. And let’s not forget about the edgy chic vibe of the bomber and moto jacket.
#2 Key accessories
Ankle boots, sneakers, or socks and pumps are the best options to keep your feet warm while wearing a spring dress. You can also wear it with a hat or a coordinating scarf. But not with both as it might look too wintery.
What do you wear when the weather is sending you mixed signals? My go-to is layering a slip dress like this! Do you have any tips or suggestions on how to wear a spring dress? I would love to find out about yours in the comments below.
Have a wonderful week and thanks for stopping by!

I always looooooove your style, and it is amazing to see how you manage to make a tee shirt and a slip dress look so chic! The addition of THAT BAG and those fabulously casual Chuck Taylors put you right into serious street style star category. Love it, and love the photography too. We are having the same weather as you, from the sound of it! Have a lovely week, beauty xxx

There are dresses and pieces we just can’t say no to all year round, so we better find ways to extend their life through the cold months right? 🙂 Happy Monday darling! x
You know me well enough by now that I do feel the cold. It only takes a chilly easterly wind to knock me over. So it’s layers for me, Stella. Chunky rollnecks, tight jeans, wooly socks ankle booties and cardies. Big cashmere scarves……. I could go on. Oooh, I’m loving that dress. The colour is perfect on you.
Kisses, Jo

I totally feel you my dear Jo! I am always cold! We are in Greece now, yesterday it was 28 Celsius degrees and I went to sleep with a blanket. My husband was looking at me like I need an exorcism haha! xo
Hi Stella,
Such a cute look!
We have had a pretty mild spring, but I think it is about to get HOT.
Love this look on you. That bag is too cute!
I love how you accessorized – those mules and your bag are GORG!
Looking forward to your clothing tips for winter 🙂
Thanks

I’m all about layering and you are so good at it. I get a ton of inspiration from your fun style. I just checked out the recent Louis Vuitton show in Kyoto. There’s some seriously good layering going on that might inspire you!
