How To Style A Sweater Dress

If you live in a frigid winter climate like I do,  it is difficult to wear dresses in winter.  But I get tired of wearing pants all winter long and I long to wear dresses.  Tights and tall boots (especially the over-the-knee ones) are key to keeping warm in dresses in winter.  Choosing long sleeve, longer dress lengths, and knit dresses also help to keep warm in a dress in winter.

When I received my October box from Stitch Fix, I was estactic to see a sweater dress in my Fix.  I  really need winter dresses, especially sweater dresses. This dress is by Fortune and Ivy and is called "Elisha Cowl Neck Hacci Knit Dress". 

I styled my dress with black tights and black booties.

As an outer layer, I chose this green/black cardigan from CJBanks (old).

The length of the cardigan is almost as long as the dress.  I love the edgy grommet detail on the sides.

My booties are a black suede with a kitten heel (old).

In honor of fall, I chose to wear this pretty leaf necklace from an old Stitch Fix box.

I also received this handbag from Urban Expressions in my October box.  It can be used as a handbag or a cross body bag.  In this post, I'm featuring it as a handbag.

The name of the bag is "Maison Whipstitch Crossbody Bag".    I just love the whipstitch trim.

A black sweater dress has endless styling opportunities.  Any color of cardigan would work with it, along with blazers and jackets.  

I couldn't find any of these old or Stitch Fix pieces on-line for you, but here are many similar pieces.  Dress:  HERE, HERE, and HERE,  Cross Body Bag HERE,  Leaf Necklace HERE, Black Booties HERE,  Green Cardigan HERE and HERE.

Have A Great Day!  Amy
