How do you style a knit dress?

As with any piece of clothing, styling knit dresses comes down to accessorizing. When you attend black tie affairs, you want to elevate the look, with strappy heels, elegant jewelry, and possibly a shawl for warmth. For a more casual outfit, finish a knit dress with a classic jean jacket and sandals. Bags like a sparkling clutch or a cross-body purse can also help you achieve a specific look.
