10 Office-Appropriate Ways to Wear Your Dresses With Tights and Boots

Office Appropriate Ways to Wear Your Dresses With Tights and Boots

As any woman who works in an office knows, putting together a new outfit for every day of the week is quite the challenge. What professional woman has the time to sort through her wardrobe day after day to put together an appropriate (yet comfortable and stylish) work outfit? You could do what former art director Matilda Kahl did and wear the same outfit to work every single day, but that’s not the likely choice for all of us. That’s exactly why we love the dress with tights and boots outfit combination.

Wearing a dress with tights and boots is a simple, classic, and comfortable outfit combination that’s ideal for anyone who likes to stay warm in the office, while also looking stylish and appropriate. When worn with sleek tights and timeless over-the-knee boots or heeled ankle boots, even a flirty shift dress can become office-appropriate.

So what are a few easy ways to pull off this classic combination?

Keep scrolling for a few of our favorite ways to pull off this outfit combination, then shop dresses to help you get the look.
