It may feel counterintuitive to wear a white dress in the winter but I love the contrast it provides against a dark jacket and tights. I first featured this dress here with basic black and was inspired add emerald accents by this recent ModCloth email. Take one part black and white dress, add a black jacket and boots, and sprinkle with any bright color(s) for accessories!
