6 Ways to Style a Knit Dress

You can never go wrong with a black maxi dress, and believe it or not, I picked this one up for under $100. Not only is it classic and chic, but it can be styled so many different ways. Whether you’re headed to the office, running errands, or grabbing a drink with your girlfriends, I’m sharing six different ways you can style a knit dress for fall and winter. I’m also rounding up a ton of similar dresses since mine is sold out. Cheers!

WITH FLATS + A SWEATER

This look would be the perfect look for shopping or grabbing brunch - it’s comfortable but still chic. I’ve been loving the mesh ballet flat trend and these ones were a bit more affordable than the designer ones. I also love these Mary Jane ones.

WITH A COATIGAN + HEELS

For a more dressed up look that is still warm, I threw a coatigan (mine’s sold out but I love this Mango one as well) on with some heels. You could even pair this with some boots for an even warmer outfit.

WITH SNEAKERS

For a casual look, a knit dress pairs perfectly with some sneakers - I love my Sambas but it would even look cute with some Nike Dunks. I’d wear this to run errands, when I’m on drop-off duty, or to a casual dinner.

WITH A LEATHER JACKET + BOOTS

For an edgier look, you can’t go wrong with a leather jacket - use my code LUCY10 for my bomber. Not only would this outfit be appropriate for a date night, but it’s nice and warm for those colder days, especially paired with some knee-high boots.

WITH A BELT + HEELS

When in doubt, belt it! Adding a belt to cinch in the waist is flattering on any body type and just elevates your look. My belt is sold out but I’ll link some similar ones down below. I also cannot tell you the amount of times I’ve worn these heels - they go with everything and are super comfy. They’re also only $150 and come in tons of colors.

WITH A BLAZER + HEELS

For all my working ladies out there, a knit dress pairs perfectly with a blazer. I’d wear this look to the office or a business meeting. I especially love the oversized fit of this blazer (use my code LUCY20) it comes in black as well.
