5 WAYS TO LAYER A BLACK DRESS FOR SPRING

Spring is such a finicky season. One day it’s 75 degrees and beautiful, the next it’s 50 degrees and cloudy. So it’s important to know how to take a staple item like a black dress and layer it for whatever the weather brings in Spring!

I’ve put together 5 outfits for you with a simple Black Ruffle Tier Dress. You can do this with any black dress you have, but I' just love the shape and flowy-ness of this one.

Black Dress #1

This is a classic, workwear option. I’m a big fan of the white button down, it’s less traditional with the floral and sheet sleeves, but the body of it is lined.

Black Dress #2

This outfit says sassy teacher to me! A lightweight cardigan is always in my purse this time of year. Pair with a comfortable flat sandal and you are ready to go for the day.

Black Dress #3

Adding a button up over a dress is a great way to use items you already have in your closet to create a whole new look. And doesn’t black gingham just yell SPRING to you?

Black Dress #4

A denim jacket is a must have year round, but in the Spring and Fall it’s a staple to keep in the car! I love pairing black and denim with a camel sandal, it adds just a small pop to the outfit.

Black Dress #5

Pairing a black dress with a bright sweatshirt and sneakers might be my very favorite way to layer!
Create a more feminine shape to the sweatshirt by using a rubber band to gather fabric inside the sweatshirt. Add a pair of sneakers with a fun pattern and you are ready to go to brunch and run errands.
