My Favorite Sweater Dresses

[caption_box id=”1″]

Oh the sweater dress. If you ask me, the sweater dress has really done a 180, turning a corner from something I absolutely avoided into an absolute cozy must-have. The sweater dress of yesteryear was clingy and usually very fitted… not something I personally want to wear. But give me a swingy a-line or an oversized cocoon sweater dress any day of the week and I’ll gladly curl up in it. They’re great alone with tights or booties… or, as things get even colder, wear them tunic style with faux leather leggings or skinny jeans.

My Favorite Sweater Dresses

I’ve rounded up my ten favorite sweater dresses today. From luxurious (hellllo 100% Mongolian cashmere) to more affordable (the one I’m wearing above is only $35!). The rest are somewhere in the middle… mostly under $100, with the exception of the cashmere one.

PS – while I have you, Express has the best tights. Better than Wolford, better than any tights I’ve ever tried. I buy a few new pairs every year and they never disappoint. Super opaque, long enough, just… wonderful.

    i bought your #4 from Target a couple weeks ago in the rust color; i loved it so much that i just ordered the purple and black versions as well! no i do not need three of the same dress, but they feel like a dream to wear and are the epitome of chic coziness. ❤️

    Love the sweater dress you featured! Your Amazon picks have been on point lately. Perfect for cozy WFH during the week but also “dressing up” on weekends.

    A black sweater dress is my hero item of clothing. There is nothing more comfortable or appropriate for almost any occasion with the right accessories. I wear them with heels and jewels for a cocktail party or with flat boots for a more casual event. Love your selection.

    I love a sweater or sweatshirt dress so cozy and easy sometimes I cinch the waist since I have a pretty straight up and down/athletic figure. What do you think of wearing these without leggings they are pretty short but I see the models here doing it and I’ve seen others but I’m never sure and is there an age limit to when you have to stop wearing above the knee dresses and skirts? : )

      I don’t think there is an age limit!!!! Where what you love and what makes you happy- I’m 39 and just wear tights!
