Polka Dot Shift Dress 4 Ways

I bought this cute shift dress from J Crew a few seasons ago and I love how versatile it is. I can wear it during Winter paired over a turtleneck and boots and then in the Spring I can wear it with a cardigan and rain boots or style it simple with flats. A shift dress is a must in every woman’s closet. It’s flattering and can be dressed up or down. You can even pair them with converse runners for chasing after your kid :).

I bought this dress last Spring and I’m always looking at how to carry clothes from one season into the next. So the next time you look at your shift dress and are sad that it’s too cold to wear, think again. Add a pair of tights, turtleneck sweater and boots and you’re set to go. Check out how I styled my polka dot shift dress to go from Spring to Winter.

Fall Fashion Must Haves

31 Replies

Here are my picks for Fall fashion must haves that you should consider adding to your wardrobe.

Screen Shot 2013-09-03 at 2.52.23 PM.jpg

1. Blazer: A blazer is a must have in every woman’s wardrobe. They dress up a pair of jeans and a t-shirt and go great over top a dress for a night out.

Blazer (Gap -$89.95)

2. Statement Necklaces: I would have to say that statement necklaces are perfect for every season, but especially for Fall. There a great way to spice up an outfit and also add a pop of colour to it.

Necklaces (Stella & Dot - $238 & Stella & Dot - $54)

3. Scarves: Are a great accessory to have for Fall. Like statement necklaces they can add some flair and colour to an outfit and they also keep you warm.

Scarf (Old Navy - $14.94)

4. Vest: A vest is definitely a must have. It’s a great layering piece and is extremely versatile. You can layer it over a simple long sleeved top or over a dress.

Vest (Banana Republic - $124).

5. Jeggings: They are the perfect pant for Fall because they stretch and because they fit great into boots.

Jeggings (RW & Co. - $58)

6. Tuxedo inspired pants: These are a great way to add some fun into your wardrobe. They will transition great into Winter and Christmas.

Tuxedo Pants (RW & Co. - $ coming soon)

7. Pointed Ballet Flats: Ballet flats have been a major trend for many years. This year they have decided to add a point to it. To give it some more flair try it in an animal print.

Flats (Gap - $49.95)

8. Ankle Boots: I can’t say enough about this trend. I love it!!!!! I bought one last year and I just love my booties. They are perfect with jeggings, shorts, skirt and even with a dress. A definite must have in your Fall wardrobe!!!!!!!!

Boots (J Crew - $ 348)

9. Printed Shift Dress: This would transition so well into Winter by adding some tights and a great trench coat. Or for the Fall with boots and a jean jacket.

Dress (Gap - $74.95)

10. Printed Fitted Shirt: I’ve fallen in love with fitted shirts. They are so versatile and the printed ones are even better because they dress up a sweater or cardigan. Try mixing prints.

Shirt (Gap - $59.95)

11. A Tote: I swear the older I get, the bigger my purses get. You can’t go wrong with a tote. It’s perfect for running errands or going out at night.

Purse (Aldo - $50)

12. Cardigan: They are the perfect layering piece for your Fall wardrobe. Try buying one in a fun print.

Cardigan (Jacob - $69.90)

13. Boyfriend Sweater: It seems like everything “boyfriend” is on trend right now. The idea of a boyfriend sweater is that it’s bigger than your traditional one, but that it remains feminine. Try a printed version or one with leather.

Sweater (J Crew - $188)

There you have it my Fall fashion must haves.

This is a shift dress that I wore to a girl’s night on Friday. I went straight from work to the party and my co-workers thought I was all dressed up for them. Although I do dress nicely for work, I told them I was going out afterwards. I need to wear this dress more often. I’m hoping to make it transition into Fall and Winter by adding tights, boots, and layering a turtleneck or a boyfriend shirt underneath.

Jacket (Jacob). Dress (J Crew). Shoes (Tory Burch). Necklace (Joe Fresh). Bracelets (Stella & Dot, The Bay). Watch (Michael Kors).
