Figuring out how to wear a white dress, however, can feel like more of a challenge. Luckily, you’ve come to the right place.

Stay cool when it’s warm out–in more ways than one. Add some edge to an ultrafeminine look by pairing a white eyelet ruffle dress with chunky black shoes–in this case, ’90s-inspired combat boots. The result: A must-have mashup.
