How to Wear an Off the Shoulder Dress

Make sure you have your band size correct—that's where most of the support from your bra will come from. Try on strapless bras from a number of different brands, because the cut, the fabric, and the style of each will make a different in the fit. The best bras should feel like you have nothing on.

If you're wearing an off-the-shoulder dress, you want most of the attention to be on the actual dress itself. So try to steer clear of super clunky, heavy jewelry. Instead, go with choker-style necklaces that add a more light, casual effect to your look. A thin chain or even a string of pearls can add subtle, but elegant style to your look. You can also choose a pendant-style necklace as a great decorative accent. The more distracting your jewelry, the less people will notice your dress!

Off-the-shoulder dresses look fantastic, but they don't offer much in the way of warmth. If it's cold out, you definitely want to add some layers that will help keep you insulated. A sweatshirt and a coat should do the trick. Slip into your favorite off-the-shoulder dress, layering a long-sleeved sweatshirt on top. Then, pull a thick winter jacket on as a final touch. You could also go with tights and a turtleneck. Layers turn your dress into the perfect winter outfit. Slide into a pair of tights, along with a comfy turtleneck. Then, layer favorite off-the-shoulder dress overtop. You'll be able to brave the cold weather while still looking great in your off-the-shoulder dress.
