If you only wear dresses...

How many do you own?

I starting wearing only dresses earlier this year to save myself time and stress getting dressed and I am really enjoying the ease.

I'm selling off all my trousers/skirts/tops. I have knitwear/accessories for styling and warmth but wondering how many dresses is too few/too many if they are my staple every day item.

I would estimate I have about 20 total at the moment - maybe five of those very summery, and three very wintery. It feels like not enough but maybe I just don't quite love them all enough and should swap out rather than acquiring more!

I have 10 winter dresses that I wear with thick Black tights. The dresses are Black with a geometric print/stripes/spots/floral.

Then I have 3 that are Black but sparkly patterns/low cut/glitter/going out type dresses.

Then I have a load of long sleeved stretchy tops that I wear underneath when it's really cold, In every colour!

And loads of cardigans in various colours & thickness!

I have probably 20 summer dresses but I really struggle with the heat & sometimes have to get changed 4 times a day because of sweating (grim)

5 summer glittery/going out dresses.

I have 30 wool jumper dresses. About 20 for spring/early autumn. And around 40 for summer. Sounds like a lot but hey do get worn.
