How to Wear a Black Sundress

A black sundress is a versatile piece of clothing many women have in their closets, but assume can only be worn with a strappy pair of shoes in the summertime. Through different accessories, layering and other tricks an inexpensive black sundress can be worn all year long. The dress also can be transitioned from day to night looks by adding different elements, such as a change in shoes or a different coat, to make the look even more versatile.

Instructions

1. Wear the black sundress with a blazer, a pair of knee high boots and gold accessories to take it from the office to a night on the town by simply removing the jacket and hanging your hairstyle.

2. Layer the black dress over a pair of jeans and a long sleeved shirt to wear it during the winter time. Add a chunky sweater and a pair of boots to make the look work even on the coldest winter nights.

3. Add a few pieces of chunky jewelry, a pair of high heels and a brightly colored pair of stockings to make this dress an evening look that can be worn out with the girls or to a romantic dinner.

4. Layer the black sundress with a funky, multi-colored T-shirt, a pair of black ballerina flats and an over sized handbag in order to dress down the look for a teenager to wear at school.

5. Wear the dress over a swimsuit and pair it with black flip-flops to turn the dress into a cover for a day at the beach.
