I am most definitely a person with one wardrobe.  Many people have pieces that they wear to work & other pieces that they wear on weekends, or pieces that they were during the summer & store away for the winter.  But I love a good fashion challenge so I like say my entire wardrobe is fair game no matter the occasion or season.  Jumpsuits & dresses are a couple of those easy, one & done pieces that I love to wear during the summer.  Wearing them into the winter can be a bit tricky, but by adding a turtleneck underneath, it is totally possible to style these in the wintertime!

I got this Harmony & Havoc jumpsuit well after the summer ended, but there was no chance I was going to wait until warm weather to wear it. By adding a basic turtleneck underneath & a leather jacket on top, I was able to get a wintertime wear out of this lightweight piece. 

The shape of this jumpsuit paired with boots was not super flattering, so I decided to wear my velvet flats!  Velvet is one of those fabrics you must take advantage of during the winter months - it is so luxe, especially in small doses, & for under $100, these Steve Madden flats are a steal!

This dress is super cute & the pattern almost reminds me of snowflakes (!) but the only problem is its short sleeves!  Adding a slim turtleneck underneath allowed me to wear this dress on a chilly day without having to cover up the great print!  Stuart Weitzman over the knee boots & a coordinating cross body bag finished off this look!
