I had so much fun styling this photo shoot and loved this slip dress outfit so much, I had to do a blog post on it! I needed three outfits for this shoot and definitely wanted one to include a slip dress, and ended up styling two slip dress outfits…LOL!  The slip dress is reaching staple status! It seems like everywhere I look, there is an article about how versatile this dress is with its many styling options!

Giving outfits contrast is one of my favorite ways to dress, so it was an easy choice to take the dress in that edgy direction.

When you’re putting an outfit together try to think outside the box sometimes. Just keep it simple and clean without too many trend pieces. You won’t look overdone or too trendy that way.

I’m kinda obsessed with sheer clothing right now. Maybe it’s the feminine, sexiness about it!? So layering this long sleeve sheer turtleneck under the dress was just the what I was looking for. Topping off with the cropped Burberry jacket was the perfect length to play with her proportions and elongate her body. I know, a Burberry leather jacket definitely has a high price point! However, if you read my post about how to purchase resale clothing, you could score one for up to 70% off!

Shoes tend to set the tone for your outfit. For this edgy look, I paired moto boots to contrast with the feminine silk dress.  If you want to cover more leg, go with a knee-high boot. A suede scrunchy boot would be perfect!
