How to adapt a maxi dress for all seasons

How to adapt a maxi dress for all seasons. Dresses have been one of the most popular items in our wardrobes throughout last summer and this trend has continued into the autumn/winter. New and interesting versions are continuing to arrive in the shops. I have been wearing my two favourite maxi dresses on repeat. Now that the weather is cold I often wear a wool polo neck underneath and possibly tights or leggings. It is a matter of choice but I think it is fine to have some of the dress showing below your coat. I often see very chic women in our village in London wearing this look when they are queuing at the cafe to get their morning coffee.

Details of above:

Dresses are very versatile as you can dress them up for the evening with some jewellery and feminine shoes or wear them casually with a pair of boots.

I have had my navy maxi dress originally for Hush since May 2020 and still love it.

I wore my pink leopard print dress originally from MarksandSpencer on many occasions last summer and continue to wear it, now often as a maxi skirt with a thick jumper over the top and a pair of boots.

I write a fashion and beauty blog for women over 50 with the aim of inspiring mature women to continue to enjoy and have fun with their fashion choices. I have spent most of my working life in some way connected to fashion. I started my career in Fashion PR and then trained as an Image Consultant when my children were young. I subsequently worked in the corporate world running seminars, doing private coaching and speaking at conferences. I started my blog in 2009 as I wanted to share my years of experience working in the world of fashion. I truly believe we can continue to have confidence in the way we present ourselves. Our style may evolve with time and changing lifestyles, yet with a little knowledge and inspiration, we can all continue to have fun with fashion. As women of a certain age we are a growing demographic let us prove that we can also be a chic one.
