Looking for outfit ideas on how to wear a slip dress for spring/summer weather?
Slip dresses are a capsule closet essential, and they go with so many outfits.
The Aritzia Vivienne dress is one of my favourite slip dresses, and it comes in so many different colours!
Neutral colours like white or black are always classic, but a pop of colour can be fun as well.
Here’s how to wear a slip dress 5 different ways!

Ways to style a slip dress
1. Slip dress layered over a t-shirt
I absolutely love layering clothes – it’s why I’m such a big fan of fall fashion!
Throw on your slip dress over a plain crewneck tee for a cute and casual summer outfit.
It’s the perfect look if you want to make your slip dress look a little more conservative!
Throw on your fave sneaks for an effortless and casual look.
I’m wearing the Aritzia Vivienne dress in green layered over a cropped tee from Guess and Converse One Star sneakers.
2. Slip dress with a chunky cardigan
Another way to style your slip dresses is to pair them with a chunky knit cardigan!
A chunky cardigan looks good over any outfit, and it looks adorable over a slip dress.
Oversized cardigans are best to balance out the short length of the slip dress!
Stick to sneakers or sandals to keep it casual.
I’m wearing the Aritzia Vivienne dress in black with an Urban Outfitters cardigan and Sam Edelman sandals.
3. Slip dress paired with a trench coat
For warm spring or cool summer weather, layers are always the way to go.
Tbh, layers are good all the time.
I’m wearing the Aritzia Vivienne dress in white, the Babaton Flowy Trench Coat in mauve, and a pair of taupe booties from Jeffrey Campbell.
Usually I’m more of a black and white kind of girl, but lately I’ve been loving blush/pink/millennial pink (who came up with that name anyway?)
4. Slip dress under a button-up shirtdress
How to make shirt dresses a little more fun?
Throw them on top of a mini slip dress!
I’m wearing the Aritzia Vivienne dress in white with a long black button-up shirtdress also from Aritzia.
For shoes, I’m wearing these comfy Skechers slip-ons.
5. Slip dress with a kimono
A kimono layered over a slip dress is the perfect Osheaga Music Festival outfit, especially with some badass shoes.
Probably not super functional to wear platform boots to a music festival, but still a cute outfit idea.
I’m wearing the Aritzia Vivienne dress in black, a Reverse kimono, and Jeffrey Campbell booties.
