Jackets are one of the few outfits that can `upgrade` your appearance quickly and effectively.

For dresses with bright patterns and colors, ELLE suggests that you balance it with a jacket with a minimalist shape and details, black or tones in the dress’s pattern will make the item stand out.

The color of the jacket you wear needs to be able to balance with the pattern.

You can also swap the position of the texture.

What about the dress – with or without – pastel patterns?

Jackets in neutral tones are easier to combine with outfits than bold tones.

For example, in this combination, the jacket makes the black dress and the overall outfit more stylish.

The length of the dress and the length of the jacket need to be in a harmonious ratio with each other.

Try combining a jacket with a style opposite to the style of the dress.

One note you should know: The length and width of the jacket.

2. Slip-dress + Cardigan = Gentle

If you have ever heard of the keyword `effortless dressing`, then surely the formula of combining slip-dress with cardigan jacket is an indispensable part of this dressing style.

You can wear it with an oversized shirt or a masculine-style jacket.

Lace-up shoes, sandals, low heels, slippers are suitable footwear for this combination.

Sleeveless dresses and turtlenecks are a familiar outfit combination for many fashionistas.

A-line dresses, low-waisted dresses, flowing dresses like a princess, sexy tight dresses,… or any type of dress you’ve ever seen, can be combined with a turtleneck.

What you need to worry about is not the length of the dress, but the shape of the neckline of the dress.

White, black, or neutral turtlenecks are easier to coordinate than all other colors.

You should limit combining turtlenecks with material that is too thick, thicker than the fabric of the dress, because the dress must still be the main character of your appearance.

This outfit combination is both dynamic, feminine and youthful.

On days when it’s not cold yet, diversify the style of your inner shirt.

A note you should know: If you combine more than two types of clothes, you should pay attention to the colors, details and proportions so they don’t look out of place with each other.
