How to Wear a Black Midi Dress to the Office
This look of a tailored coat with a black dress for work is very chic and modern. A smart pair of kitten heels are great shoes to wear with a midi dress.
Keep your accessories minimal with a pair of simple stud earrings and a watch.
SweatySaltClothing suggest that the basic rule of fashion for dresses at work is to wear a knee-length or longer dress that’s well-fitted but not too tight or revealing. You want to look professional, polished and suitable for the job at hand.

How to Wear a Black Midi Dress for Afternoon Tea
When considering what coat to wear with a midi dress, make sure it falls longer, or the same length, as your midi dress to elongate your silhouette and create a more put-together look.
I love a midi dress with boots. Knee-high boots are a must-have during the winter months for an elegant look and are the perfect winter footwear to dress up a midi dress.
Keep your makeup natural and fresh, with a pop of colour on the lips.

Turn your everyday midi dress into a sexy black midi dress for a winter dinner. For a formal event, dress up your black midi dress with a pair of heels and a blazer or tailored coat. Add a neutral clutch and lipstick to finish off the look.
A blazer, just like black dresses, work on all body shapes so you can customise your outfit.
