These photos were taken right before getting back in the mini to drive over to a friend’s home in Long Island. I could’ve worn knit tights but hate how they looked with this, so I wore winter leggings under the skirt instead. They’re life savers. I do that when I want to wear a skirt and avoid tights. Exposed ankles are ok with a car ride.
Another problem solver is layering a dress over a skirt – esp a shift dress because they’re so straight up and down. Most knit tops don’t have that structure or length. Let me know if you try it. It’s one way to winterize a dress. Another way is in this post with a polo neck.
ps. How ridic is this lilac wool coat? Obviously it’ll work in spring but wearing it in winter feels less expected and less cloying so why not?

Thank you! It was a gamble getting this colour since I’ve not worn anything in it before.

Beautiful coat! I actually wanted to get that coat too but I was not sure if it was warm enough for winter.

Hi! I would say its medium warmth. Not one to wear on the coldest days at all. Its a gorge coat though for milder days and especially spring of course
