Wear dresses that are too short over a skirt.  Easy!

• A pencil skirt worn under a full skirted dress gives a super cute peplum look.
• Wearing a full skirt underneath a full skirted dress gives the effect of a contrasting banded full skirt.
• Layer a too short dress style like a kaftan or T shirt dress over a coordinating or contrasting slip to keep you nice.

I’ve teamed my too short Sportsgirl lace dress with a Country Road striped jersey pencil skirt.

The classic solution for how to wear dresses that are too short is leggings.  Every girl should have a good quality pair of black opaque leggings in her wardrobe.  Add some fun to your style with patterned and coloured leggings.

I’ve teamed a pair of Tightology leggings with a Bohemian Traders T shirt dress (gifted) for this look.
