Button Down Sweater Dress 3 Ways

This year I am hoping to focus on sharing different ways to wear items new and old because we are more likely to be content with what we have when we realize how versatile our wardrobe can be. This would be a newer piece in my closet, I think I picked this Sweater Button Down Dress up the first week of December at Target and sadly it was not on sale. I justified paying full price for it because it is actually of great quality and can be worn so many ways. Today I am just sharing 3 different ways you could wear it, but I can also envision it with tall black or tan boots, with some prints layered under or printed shoes as well as dressing it down as a dress and sneakers. I could also change up the accessories, wear a hat or try different cuts of jeans with it.

Dress as a Long Cardigan

This is the first outfit I wore with the sweater dress. It is really soft and I really like the length: I have tried other long cardigans that hit me higher on the leg which didn’t give me a flattering line. I repeated the tan in the sneakers and wore a pair of earrings made by a local lady who makes earrings from vintage fabric.

I am looking forward to wearing it with jeans too! I think I will probably wear this the most as a cardigan but it does look cute as a dress.

Sweater Dress and Red Accents

My little reindeer match quite well with my outfit! I am wearing another pair of earrings from the same small business and love how these are perfect during Christmas season but will be fun for all of the patriotic holidays too. I usually wear this star necklace in the summer but it fit the neckline of the dress perfectly.

Probably the pair of booties I reach the most, my embroidered booties from IdeasValyen were actually an impulse buy when I visited her booth in Lilburn, GA back in the summer. I love them as they bring so much interest with that pop of color.

Loose Sweater Dress

While I wore the dress with booties in this picture, I think I would like this look with a more relaxed vibe with sneakers.

It was another cold and rainy day when we took these pictures. I was actually planning to take them near the woods in the cul de sac, but it started drizzling and picking up wind as soon as we walked out the door. But my son was willing to take pictures (when you are a teen and you don’t have a job, taking blog pictures can help!) so we forged ahead.

So, no regrets! I really do love this sweater dress and I expect to wear it well into spring.

A bientôt!
