We just hit the 80oF level in New York, and while I was walking to the grocery shop that day, I realized how desperately I needed to reset my STAT. Some simple can be easily achieved with trench coats, cardigans, and more because of these remarkable high temperatures and nighttime lows. And I could n’t help but imagine all the cute ways to wear them with the season’s, as well. So I searched Instagram for a little extra motivation and came up with 8 simple dress and shoe combinations. Seriously—these are that simple.
All of the dress forms I found really happen to be extremely pleasant, too. There are many sinuous, column dresses, bodycon knit designs, including some fit-and-flare styles that can be worn with great, toned sandals and sporty sneakers, as well as strappy, kitten heels. Although these dress and shoe styles are all seeing a rise in fashion, they are pretty much that you wo n’t ever regret purchasing—they’ll always be in style. Go ahead, getting inspired with some of my friends below.

A white rib-knit dress feels weather suitable as you transition your wardrobe into the hotter months while also providing some protection when the nighttime temperatures dip. For a casual yet elegant appearance, this pair of black puppy heels can be worn to work, dinner with friends, and other occasions.
