Styling Ideas: Winterizing the Vappu dress & Layered skirts

N. emailed me this morning asking for suggestions on how to winterize her Vappu dresses. Since I am being quite lazy today, I put together a couple sets already.

The first Polyvore set winterizes the yellow Vappu by layering a thermal tee underneath and a heavy weight cardi on top. Use rich Fall colors like cranberry, olive, or brown in the tee and then top with an ivory or natural colored cardigan. Or switch it and use a basic ivory thermal with a brightly colored or patterned cardigan. Cinch it with a wide belt, add tights and boots.

Styling ideas: The Catskill boots, Plains & Prairies winterized

E. asked for some outfit ideas using her Catskill boots from last year. She’s already worn the boots with jeans, so I focused on dresses and skirts. She had a couple great dresses in her closet already including the Plains and Prairies dress that she was hoping to winterize.
To recreate these looks with what’s in your closet think heavier weight fabrics and texture. Corduroy, thermal tops, cable knit. Fair Isle, plaid, and rough leather belts. Color scheme is Navy, white or ivory, olive, pale pink, tan, and burgundy.
Don’t be afraid to pair a girly dress with tough boots. If you have a boot that hits at a strange place on your leg, lengthen it visually with a matching knee sock or leg warmer.

Styling Requests

Happy Saturday ladies! Just wanted to post a quick note inviting you to send in any outfit styling request you may have. If you are looking for ideas on how to wear a piece languishing in your closet, want a fresh perspective on how to wear a well loved item, or just want some ideas prior to purchasing; shoot me an email. Feel free to include a bit about yourself in the request. Your lifestyle, casual or dressy. Whether you’re looking for work or play outfits. If you have some other items in your closet you’d like in incorporate, etc. Now that I am on shopping ban, I will be living vicariously through Polyvore lol.
I will be back later with a review and some outfits for the lovely Easy Keeper skirt in orange. Love, love, love this skirt but ban is still on!
