35 Feminine Winter Dresses That Don’t Require Tights
Tired of rotating between the same pair of leggings and those barrel leg jeans you've now worn five days in a row? Same.
I'm working on a theory here. What if seasonal depression has less to do with the lack of sunlight and more to do with the fact that we've all been living in various shades of black knitwear and denim for three months straight? Hear me out: there's something deeply soul-crushing about looking down at your outfit and seeing the same drab sweater and jeans combo you wore yesterday. And the day before that. The winter wardrobe spiral is real, and I think we've been blaming the wrong culprit this whole time.
But here's the thing. Winter doesn't have to mean sacrificing every ounce of femininity for warmth. You don't have to choose between freezing in a mini slip dress or drowning in an oversized puffer coat. There's a middle ground, and it looks like the 35 dresses we've rounded up below.
We've got options for everything from casual everyday wear for running errands to looking your most feminine at the office to a romantic date night in the city with your man. Whether these dresses have been thoughtfully crafted out of cashmere or thermal layers or they're just the perfect length for wearing with your knee-high boots and a long-line jacket, we can guarantee you won't be reaching for your leggings again anytime soon.
