It is officially fall, meaning it’s finally a socially acceptable time to break out cozy sweaters, cute boots and the coolest coats. Keeping warm in the now colder temperature does not mean you have to compromise style, in fact I much prefer bundled up looks as opposed to shorts and tank tops in the summer.
This outfit, in particular, is able to combine function and fashion in the most effortless way. A sweater dress is the perfect transition item in the beginning of the season, where temperatures can go from warm to chilly in just hours. The short boots are also great for this same reason, and this pair is amazing!
Since the dress is a light color the black boots become the statement piece, but don’t distract from the details in the sweater. The oversized turtleneck makes the dress unique and eliminates the need to accessorize, which is why I love buying pieces that have a lot of detail in them; simple to wear but, not boring.
When the weather gets much colder switch out the short boots for a pair of over-the-knee boots in a camel color. This dress would look amazing with a statement coat, by choosing a color like black or dark grey it would really add an element of cool and give the outfit an unexpected twist… and most important make it bearable, even enjoyable, to be outside. This again adds to the fashionable functionality of the look.
This outfit is so versatile from just going to class or getting dinner with friends. A sweater dress is for sure a season must have this year!
