STYLE ADVICE OF THE WEEK: A Twist on Sweater Weather

When the season changes to colder weather I crave the days of being able to throw on a dress and walk out the door. New England’s chilly fall temperatures certainly won’t allow that, so Fashionistas all over the East Coast are forced to say goodbye and trade in their cute, fun, easy dresses for jeans and bulky sweaters. Not to say that fall isn’t a great season for fashion, but sometimes a girl just wants to dress up a little! This Fashionista has the perfect solution for distressed girly-girls everywhere: the sweater dress.

Sweater dresses have been seen in countless runway shows, and you can’t go into one ready-to-wear store right now without seeing one. This piece is not only a trend, but a staple in this year’s fall wardrobe. It can be worn to class, to work and you can even dress it up for the upcoming holidays. Since there are so many different ways to wear it, it will definitely last you until the end of those long winter days ahead.

Long or short sleeve, dressed up or dressed down, this sweater dress is the perfect add-on to your fall wardrobe. Paired with tights and tall boots, this outfit is warm enough to take on the chilly fall weather while still feeling dressed up. This Fashionista choose to keep the look a little more casual with minimal accessories for a more daytime look. A great feature of the sweater dress is that it’s versatility allows it to be worn from day to night. A simple change to heeled booties and adding a leather jacket would be all this outfit needs to be ready for a night out.
