To style it, you really don’t have to do too much, adding a little bit of detail here and there in your outfit is sufficient to make you look good. I have collected some of the best ways to style the black shirt dress and I am about to share with you.
Black Tie Waist Shirt Dress with Black Sandals
A shirt dress doesn’t have to be loosely fitting or even baggy. It can be slim fit and make you look lean and smart. As an example, wear a black tie waist shirt dress with a black sandals and a black purse for a minimal, all-black classy look.

This outfit is another good example of a work outfit. Wear the black shift dress with a wide brown belt. Match the belt with a purse of the same color. Wear black sandals to complete this business casual outfit.
Wear with White Felt Hat
If you want to add a little bit of twist to the previous outfit, here is an interesting variation. This version is a little more feminine and artistic. First of all, you would want to replace the sandals with nude heels. Then wear a white and black felt hat to add an artistic touch to the outfit.
Wear with Black Open Toe Heels
Not wearing the belt can make a lot of difference to the shirt dress. You can see that it now has a more breezy and casual feel in it. You can amplify this feel by pairing the dress with black open toe heels. It is actually a little surprising to me how a black briefcase can actually match the outfit so well.
Black Shirt Dress with Leather Jacket
What jacket should I wear with a black shirt dress? If you have that question in your mind too, I would simply suggest two answers to you that is going to be correct 90 percent of the time: the denim jacket and the leather jacket. For this outfit, I will talk about the latter. You can wear a black shirt dress with a black leather jacket and black loafers to achieve a stylish and elegant look.

Black Shirt Dress with Denim Jacket Tied Around Waist
I have mentioned earlier that a denim jacket can be a good fit with a black shirt dress. But this outfit is a little different from what you might have expected. Instead of actually wearing the denim jacket, tie it around your waist and the black shirt dress to achieve a more casual and random look. The brown leather ankle boots match the outfit perfectly.
