November 28, 2018 | Fashion & Beauty | By Amanda Johnson

Looking effortlessly stylish in a little dress in your 60s can seem to be daunting. But fret no more because here are 10 mini dress style ideas by which you can wear your mini dress with élan. Just remember that it is not just about the dress but also about matching it with the right accessories and also about dressing according to the occasion.

1. Brunch Time

If it is a summer and you are off for a weekend brunch with your women friends then wear a light pastel coloured dress. For a winter brunch, make the colour of the dress deeper and wear it along with a shrug or a scarf. A jacket also goes well with mini dresses. Don’t make the fit of the dress too tight. Rather, at this age, wear a simple A-line dress. You could wear it with a belt if you still have the figure to show off. Pair it with a non-blingy clutch, gold studs, and flat sandals. Don’t make the shoes and the clutch the same colour as your dress but contrast it.

2. Errand Time

Are you visiting the stores for your groceries? Wear a dress that is plain and without any frills and fancies. Choose a print that looks smart and a little sporty. You can try a half sleeve embroidered swing dress by Miusol Women’s. This is vintage and it never goes out of style. Wear gladiator sandals with this. Don’t forget the handbag that is large enough to hold all your essentials. For jewellery, a pair of small earrings or some bangles is enough.

3. On A Picnic With Friends and Family

If you are on your way to attend a picnic with your family and close friends then being casual and yet stylish is what you need. For such a look you can wear a mini dress that is sleeveless and has a nice summery print like a floral design. Carry your oversized hat and your sunglasses that will protect you from the blazing sun. For the shoes, sneakers would go best with your attire and match the occasion. Get your sneakers from Vince sneakers and get stylish.

4. For A Poolside Party

Maybe you are not in the mood to splash into the pool, but that doesn’t mean that you turn down a poolside party. Get chic and go have a ball. Add a scarf with your mini dress and match it with over sized round sunshades and a flirty pair of floral flip flops. Don’t forget the sun hat from Maison Michel and your sunscreen!

5. On A Date Night.

Get out your backless mini dress, or the one with plunging neckline, or that with a strappy neckline. Dresses that have lace and sheer panels are also quite apt for such occasions. Try a lace dress from Alex Evenings. Now is the time you should wear your burgundy, black, and navy blue. Yes the high heels are recommended on a night like this. Accessorize it with a small clutch, teardrop diamond earrings and maybe even a brooch. Lele Soudghi earrings is one brand option that you can try. Maybe you can even go all black for the occasion. Wear a sleeveless mini dress with a slight flare and add a shimmering belt. To stay elegant keep it simple and wear it with a pointed-toe black pump and accessorize it with a pearl necklace piece.

6. Family Time At The Beach

A cotton dress that is loose and yet trendy is what you should wear to the beach, pair it with a cross-body bag and shades and you will surely have eyes turning.

Flaunt your curves by wearing a dress made of stretch cotton or jersey fabric like the fitted mosaic print jersey sheath dress by Maggy London. You could wear a pair of spanx underneath to make the fitting of the dress look smoother. You can try a Rekucci dress that are usually extremely feminine and experiment with unusual necklines.
