Pros-

This dress has such a flattering fit. It flows perfectly in all of the right places! It also has a built-in tie that allows you to adjust the fit of the dress by tying it in the front or back however tight you wish. 

My favorite part about the dress was the sleeves. As you can see in the picture, the dress has somewhat of a bell sleeve, and the length of the sleeves was perfect!

The material was also great because it was lightweight enough that you can still wear it on a nice Fall or Spring day without being too warm. Overall, you can’t go wrong with this dress for the low price and all of the great color options!

Cons-

I didn’t have any cons for this one!

For reference, I am wearing an XS in the pictures below, which is the size I always buy for sweater dresses, when available.

 

Color options: Black, Blue, Burgundy, Grey, Green, Orange, Rose

Purchased from: Amazon Prime

Price:  $34.99

Pros- 

This dress is made with Polyester, so it is verrry soft and warm. 

The fit of this dress is also very flattering. The top on this dress is much looser which is nice because it gives you the option to wear it off the shoulder for a sexier look, while the bottom of the dress is more tight fitting. Also, the tie is separate from the dress so you can tie it how you wish or even opt out if you prefer. 

Cons-

The only con that I had was that it doesn’t come in XS. The top fit a little bigger on me than I wanted, which caused me to have to adjust it every so often. But it is doable in a small and the length of it was good!

For reference, I am wearing a small in the pictures below!

Color options: Charcoal (only option online), the cream one pictured below I found in store.

Purchased from: Marshalls

Price:  $24.99

Review: 

Pros-

I really liked the fit of this dress. It is more of a body con sweater dress, and it also has the bell like sleeves, which I thought were so cute. 

Cons-

The only con I had was that the material was a tad bit bothersome for me. It has alpaca listed in the materials used, which is something that has always bothered my skin. Other than that it was great!

For reference, I am wearing an XS in the pictures below!

 

Color options: Black, Burgundy, Olive, Brown (pictured)

Purchased from: Target

Price:  $29.99

Review: 

Pros-

This dress wins for most comfortable, for sure! I love the V-neck, and it was the perfect length. 

This dress has a looser fit and would be perfect for a casual day, such as running errands, or it can be dressed up with a belt and some boots and worn on a night out!

Cons- No Cons for this one either! In fact, I am wearing it at work at this very moment and I have never been so comfortable!

6 Ways to style a sweater dress:

There are sooo many ways to style a sweater dress. You can keep it casual or dress it up how you like. I put together 6 of my absolute favorite ways below, that incorporate the four amazing dresses listed above! 

Style Option #1: Sweater dress with knee high or over-the-knee boots

Style Option #3: Sweater dress with animal print shoes

Feeling bold? Style your dress with a pop of leopard or snake print! A lot of sweater dresses are neutral colors, so animal print is a perfect way to add in some pattern to spice it up!
