Winter to Spring:3 Boho Dresses to Buy Before September

The mornings are still crisp. But the days are longer now. And the first blooms are out. So slowly, Sydney is trading its coats for lighter things. This in-between time is the hardest to dress for. Still, it is the best time to shop. So pick the right boho dresses today. Then they will carry you through both seasons.

Here are three that do just that. In fact, there is one for each step from winter into spring.

How to wear it now and later

  • Now (late winter): First, pop a denim or leather jacket on top. Then add ankle boots and warm tights. After that, finish with a crossbody bag and gold hoops. As a result, it stays cosy but still boho.
  • Soon (early spring): Next, lose the jacket. Then slip on flat sandals or white sneakers, and go bare-legged. After that, swap to a straw tote. In the end, it is the same dress but a whole new season.
  • Let the prints lead: For example, rich prints feel right through winter. Meanwhile, the lighter ones carry you into spring. So buy one of each, and you are set for months.
