The Question:
I don't know what to wear over my new silky black maxi dress to keep warm without covering the dress! Help!
The Answer:
My favorite way to mix up something silky and precious is with something tough or with lots of texture. Top your slip dress with a flannel shirt and an army jacket, a chunky oversized cardigan or a long faux fur coat. In the winter it's great to add combat boots and thigh highs.
