12 Fall Dresses

12 fall dresses | dresses for fall | Houston Fashion Blog Lady in Violet

OH the fall dresses are so good this season!  I’ve rounded up 12 fall dresses including long sleeve and sleeveless options.  Well 13 if you count the short sleeved floral favorite of mine in the first photo.  Sleeveless dresses are a great option for layering under a cardigan or jacket.  They also work great for the beginning of fall when it’s still a little warm outside. As the weather cools down or if you work in a colder office, you can transition over to long sleeve dresses.

I covered a few occasions with these dresses from workwear, wedding guest, and date night.  If you have fall family photos coming up, these dresses would be perfect options! I just purchased this one for our photos next month.

Which dress is your favorite?

What I Wore: 5 Fall Outfit Ideas

5 fall outfits | what i wore | Petite Fashion Blogger Lady in Violet

Happy Holiday Season!  I wanted to share a quick look back at some of my fall outfits from last month.  My November was all about comfort as I planned many leggings friendly outfits.  I did wear a great pair of flared black jeans that are petite friendly, yay!

I paired my two top pairs of black leggings with lots of tunic length sweaters and a go to black tshirt that I also own in white and purple.  I know we are well past Halloween, but I also included a look at what I wore for Halloween.  The sweatshirt is so soft and comfy that I’m still wearing it!  I need to order another one from this place that’s not seasonal.

My December outfits have been a combo of jeans and leggings, so stay tuned for that one next month.  I hope you have a great last week of 2023.

5 Work Dresses for Fall and Winter

5 work dresses for fall and winter | Lady in Violet Fashion Blog

My fashion item for 2023 was definitely dresses.  They were great during pregnancy to work with a growing bump, and they’ve been perfect post-pregnancy to work on a consistently changing body type as my pregnancy weight slowly falls off.

I wore the spring and summer dresses from my previous post as long as I could before I finally started shopping for some fall dresses.  I specifically wanted some work dresses that I could also were to church, holiday events, etc.  Most of these dresses will feature a elastic waist band of some sort.  I have found this helpful as my body and size is consistently changing.  The elastic helps the dress fit longer as my waist size changes.  Also a helpful feature if you wear to a dinner. 🙂

All but one of these dresses are under $100.  The first is over, but is on sale for Black Friday for 30% off.

I hope you all have a fabulous Thanksgiving.  If you are already Black Friday shopping, I hope you are finding some great deals!
