Outfit Idea: Layering a Dress & Sweater

Merry Christmas week, everyone! I hope that you are able to celebrate with family, friends, and loved ones this weekend. Today I want to share a work outfit idea that was inspired by an email request from a reader who loved this layered look from a couple of years ago. This reader requested another post with the same or a similar pieces. While I have never posted the same outfit twice, I thought a bit about how I could style and show another office-appropriate layered look with a dress over a sweater. This type of combo is perfect for this time of year, and I bet that many of you already have the perfect candidates (sweaters and sleeveless dresses) in your closet. This time, I decided to adopt a brighter color palette and feature a navy printed shift dress layered over a red cropped sweater. I love how this red sweater really brings out the red in the print of this dress! Tall boots add extra coverage and warmth, and a navy tote rounds out the ensemble. Although my exact pieces are no longer available, you can scroll through the widget below to see some great options to create or inspire your own layered look this winter.
