Are your summer slip dresses already lying idle somewhere in a box with all of your other slinky and skimpy summer essentials?

Don’t wait until next summer to wear them because Jamie Chung showed one trick to making the slip dress look fall-appropriate.

Together with Cara Santana, the stylish duo strolled along West Hollywood looking like they spent hours premeditating their outfits.

While Cara opted for a casual pair of jeans, a boxy trench coat, and lace-up shoes, Jamie went the more feminine route and donned her white shin-length slip dress.

The actress/fashion blogger jazzed up the simple dress with a striking printed jacket.

Yes, ladies! The trick is pairing up your plain-colored slip dress with a printed jacket. We are particularly smitten with the Once Upon a Time actress’ plaid black and white collarless jacket.

A dressier pair of shoes like Jamie’s edgy booties will amp up the look of your slip dress and take it farther away from nightgown vibes.
