I love a good swing dress, and bonus points with me when it’s in my favorite pattern: stripes. I’m looking forward to taking on the challenge to wear this swing dress a number of ways. My ideas so far?
Cold weather: with fleece lined tights and boots like I did here, or with a pair of faux leather leggings and booties.
Dressed up: with black d’orsay flats or heels and a necklace and clutch. To give the dress a bit more shape around the waist, you can wear a thin belt and then pull the dress just enough to cover the belt, so it almost looks like a two piece dress!
Spring: with a jean jacket, my favorite crossbody, and a pair of open toe booties like these or these in cognac or black.
Casual: with a chambray shirt tied around the waist with white Chuck Taylors and a baseball cap.
Layered up: with a scarf, or cargo jacket, puffer or cargo vest, cardigan or even with a sweater over it so it looks like a skirt. The possibilities are endless when it comes to layers.
How else would you remix a swing dress?

Thanks Kirsten! A great swing dress is pretty remixable after all, I’m finding! And the necklace wasn’t terribly hard to make…Youtube tutorials help though :-)
This is the best look on you! So stylish and I love the colors. :)
