Helping women love what they wear on a budget

How to Style Dresses in the Fall

November 7, 2024 by Katie H.

how to style dresses in the fall collage of 8 different outfits with dresses and different shoes and accessories

Dresses can be so versatile. Whether you are looking for a dress to wear to church, work, a shower, family pictures or you just want to put one on to run errands, it’s always great to have a good go-to dress on hand. Today I have 2 Amazon dresses that I am styling 4 different ways to show how to wear dresses in the fall.

How to Styles Dresses in the Fall?

I’ve always been a big fan of making the most out of my wardrobe, which is why I’m always looking for ways to wear my clothes year-round. A dress is always a versatile piece and one of the easiest items to transition from season to season.

In the fall, I love pairing dresses with cozy layers, like cardigans or denim jackets, and adding tights for warmth. Longer sleeve dresses or those in heavier fabrics work especially well in cooler weather. I’ll also swap out sandals for ankle boots or knee-high boots to give the outfit an autumn feel. With a few layering tricks, dresses can stay in rotation all year!

These two Amazon dresses that I’m sharing today are perfect for fall, but they also transition nicely into spring and even summer! The first dress I’m sharing has shorter ruffle sleeves, making it wearable year-round. The second dress has longer sleeves, which are ideal for the winter months. Both dresses come in cute prints, with additional colors and patterns to choose from.

Here’s how I styled them.
