It’s pretty apparent that the cold is here to stay for quite some time. If you’ve been watching the news, even some of the states that don’t get the cold from the Winter are experiencing snow and cold blasts. Typically, as the Winter gets colder and colder, our dresses slink further back in our closet and we avoid them altogether. But that doesn’t need to be the case. There are plenty of ways to transition your closet for the cold weather and keep your dresses at the forefront of your closet so that you can wear some of the short-sleeved ones in the winter with some layering, or simply get some simplistic Winter dresses to wear during the cold months.

Why WEAR WINTER DRESSES
You may be asking – ‘why would I want to wear a dress during the Winter?’ I get it. It’s cold. Most of the time, we all just want to stay in the house under a blanket and keep warm. And if we have to go outside, we tend to bundle up and that usually is with pants, thick coats, hats, and gloves. It’s a part of my wardrobe too. I have tons of loungewear that I can go out in and I typically stick to wearing just that. But there are occasions in the Winter when you may want to wear a dress such as Valentine’s Day, date night, or a wedding. Or you may just love dresses and skirts and you’re finding a way to wear them during the Winter.
