Paper Dolls: The Lady in Red Boots

There's just something about a slouchy sweater and boots that I love. Here's a sophisticated take on that classic pairing.
 

 
I think this jersey dress would be perfect for going to the movies, heading out to the mall, or wearing to work. The key to making the outfit work with boots is the distance between the hemline and the top of the boots. The top of the boots can tuck under the hemline of the skirt if long. If the skirt is short, at least 3 to 5 inches between the hemline and the top of the boots. Dress up a look with tights that match your boots. If you're short, use this trick to elongate your legs.
 
Get the Look: Tons of Triangles Reversible Necklace available at Urban Outfitters for $24; Branitta Sweater Dress By Diane von Furstenberg in Grey Melange, available at Nordstrom for $206.98; Siri Boots by Miz Mooz in Red, also in Black and Whiskey, available at Zappos for $197.99.
 
Ciao Bella!
