For the next couple months, I will be collaborating with Ada from Elegance and Mommyhood to bring you our winter must haves. Each week we will be featuring some clothing items we can't live without during the winter.This first week we are featuring cozy sweaters and sweater dresses. I love her wintery look and clearly we both had red and black on our minds! Make sure you check out Ada's spring and fall versions of this series! Hope you enjoy!

I got this sweater as a gift and was initially a little stumped on how to wear it. The whole thing is cut bell-shaped. But, I liked the color and collar detail. The coziness factor was another plus so I had to figure out a way to wear it so it wouldn't overwhelm my figure. To balance out the larger cut of it, I've tried it with skinny jeans, or a pencil skirt. They both work well, but I think my favorite is paired with this pencil skirt!
Looks like we both had gray on our mind, too! I like how we both showcased different types of sweaterdresses. Ada's is a pretty striped one, tunic style while mine is cut a more like a traditional dress. Love her contrasting scarf, too!

YOU LOOK GREAT, OBVIOUSLY! I love both of your looks as I mentioned on my blog, today, as well. My first Outfit is the first one. That Houndstooth Pencil Skirt is Lovely. Like you and I both stated (in the same exact words even!! LOL) we both had Red, Black & White in our minds. I love your Open Red Cardigan, so Fun & Unique and a great Holiday Color! Your Sweater Dress from The Limited is Beautiful & Polished, too. No wonder, it comes from my favorite store. =)
ReplyDeleteI am in love with this sweaterdress! I think it has a different shape than most sweater dresses I've seen.
ReplyDeleteThanks Inge! I like that it has more of a dress shape rather than looking like a super long sweater. :)
ReplyDeleteThank you Ada! Too funny we both chose very similar colors for the two outfits! :)
ReplyDeletewowzers! you look so amazing in all your outfits here! simply gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much! You are too sweet! :)
ReplyDeleteThat is a gorgeous dress!! I also love how you paired the brown boots with houndstooth! I love sweater dressed in the winter - so cozy! Susan
ReplyDeleteThank you Susan! And I like the cognac boots with it, too. I thought otherwise there was too much black. :)
ReplyDeleteI am loving that houndstooth skirt. And the red sweater is just fabulous. I would love for you to add your look to my Love Your Look Link Up!!
