I’ve got many messages about how to wear midi length dresses now and in the Fall, besides some requests for different price point options. 

Here are dresses that will work now, when it gets a bit chilly in the evening and when it gets cold, including some affordable options:

Don't forget to look at your closet and shop there first.

The idea is to help you with a move to a curated wardrobe. 

My tips are:

1. Try on your dress with a denim jacket for now.

Consider the proportions; avoid long jackets with dresses if you are petite like me.

2. Change belts

If you want to elevate a dress and make it ready for the new season, change the existing fabric belt to a leather one. 

3. Use the third piece

Cardigans are trendy now - it means you will find many options in the stores: with puff sleeves, interesting buttons, etc. They can look very cool over a dress + belt + boots. 

4. You don't need to match boots + belt + bag.

I gave this option since a monochromatic outfit is modern, looks elegant and elongates your figure if you wish so.
