Q. I have a berry colored kimono style dress (cotton stretch material). I plan on wearing it with brown slouchy boots. My question is do I wear tights under the dress? It’s cold out… I don’t mind wearing no tights but if I do, then what color. Any suggestions?

A. If the temperature has dropped, then don the tights. For this look, the “rule of two” probably works best—meaning, match either your shoes/boot color to your tights (in this case, brown) or choose a tight color that is similar to your dress. If you want to add a little sass to your outfit, then choose tights that have texture or a weave of more than one color:
