The last time I put on a dress and heels go anywhere was February when I volunteered at Night to Shine near school. I really miss having a few events each summer where I get to put on a dress and heels. I might just need to start getting dressed up just because. Navy is a neutral in my wardrobe. 95% of the time I will pick a little navy dress over a little black dress, it’s just my go to. I think it’s partial because I have blue eyes so I lean to shades of blue. Similar a black dress with a nave dress you have a lot of options when it comes to shoes, jewelry and other accessories.
When it comes to styling a navy dress I usually go one of two ways, keep it simple and classic or go wild and fun with my shoes and accessories. Here I paired my two favorite navy dresses with my classic nude ankle strap heel and simple pearl hoops. Other times I will pair it with my Hot Pink Sam Edelman block heels and more of a statement earring. These navy dresses have been in my closet for years. So below I am sharing a few I found shopping around that I am tempted to add to my Little Navy Dress collection.
Dress 1:
I have this dress in red, I wore it last Christmas. It is extremely comfortable and flattering. The navy color is so pretty and it would be perfect for any event this fall and beyond. I wear this dress in a size XS and it fits true to size.
Dress 2:
This next dress is another classic piece that would elevate any look. I would pair it with either the nude heels like the model or a statement shoe making it more of a statement with my outfit for where ever I was wearing it. The best part of this dress is you can style it to be more causal or more formal depending on the event you plan on wearing it to.
Dress 3:
This last dress is another classic Navy Dress, its long making it perfect for the more formal events on your calendar one day, hopefully again soon. This dress is perfect for a wedding in any season or other formal event you may have. The classic cut of this dress makes it a staple for years to come. To spice it up with seasonal accessories, for example in the winter a fou fur wrap or in the summer a summer statement earrign and some bright shoes.
Shoes for Navy Dress:
Here are some shoes that I would pair with navy dresses. All pictures are from the Nordstroms website.
I am looking forward to the day I can get dressed up again with friends and family. Until then I will share my favorite looks as inspiration for future events.
