10 Stylish Ways To Wear A Jacket Over A Dress
By EMILY HUNT
Something Sporty
If you want to dress down one of your favorite fancy dresses, a great way to do that is to embrace the sporty style trend and pair it with a sporty jacket. Look for a neutral colored jacket with ribbed cuffs and a ribbed hem to get the full sporty effect of this trendy jacket.
Denim
Jean jackets are one of the most versatile pieces you can own, and it makes total sense they go well with dresses. The contrasting fabrics will keep some visual interest in your outfit and make you look put together in a fabulously understated way.
Fitted Dress
Maximize a fitted dress by pairing it with a jacket to add shape to your outfit. Try wearing cropped jackets over your fitted dresses if you just need a bit of warmth so that you can keep your fabulous figure on full display.
Neutral Palette
You can put together some fantastic outfits using neutral color combinations. Try combining the same neutral hues, or experiment with various tones like beige, white, grey, or dark neutrals, like a black dress with a dark grey jacket, to make for a great evening look.
Double Layer
If you ever find yourself stuck deciding between two jackets, you don’t have to worry because you can try layering them. While you’re layering them, make sure the outermost layer is longer than the jacket underneath.
