Sweater Dress, 100th Thursday Moda Link Up and Giveaway

OUTFIT DETAILS:

Dress: Forever 21 (old, similar here) | Shoes: Blondo | Bag: Rebecca Minkoff (old, similar here) | Sunglasses: Dior (old, similar here) | Lips: Lust by MAC

One of the item that I love to wear during the colder seasons is a sweater dress.  It’s just so easy to throw on.  Not only is it comfy and soft but a sweater dress is like a cozy version of a pajama! They require minimal effort to wear and in my opinion, a great closet staple.  When it comes to styling sweater dresses, the possibilities are endless!  Think scarves, OTK boots, coats, tights, ankle boots, and/or flats.  A sweater dress looks great on its own with booties and a scarf just like how I styled it for this post, but you can easily change up this dress by adding a coat like this one, a neutral colored tights and an embellished ankle boots like this one for a night on the town ensemble. 

Forever 21 has amazing sales and I scored this sweater dress for less than $15 several seasons ago.  It’s warm, cozy and the perfect shade of taupe.  Since I tend to stick to neutral colors, I paired this dress with a plaid scarf and burgundy backpack to add some color to the mix. 

Sadly, the one I am wearing is old, but if you are looking for a chic way to stay cozy this season, I have rounded up 9 other cute sweater dresses you can shop below that is under $30.  Particularly, I love the color of this one, this off the shoulder one and the stripe pattern on this one.

What about you? Do you like sweater dresses?

    That’s a lovely knit dress! I really like your scarf with it too 🙂 I’d love to wear dresses like this more often, but it’s just not cold enough here in Brisbane to wear them, so I don’t have any left in my wardrobe.

    Hope that you are having a lovely weekend 🙂 We are having a relaxing one, much needed after a hectic week!
