8 Ways You Can Wear a Sweater Dress

Sweater dresses are cute and comfy! Though, you have to be careful in the fit. As it took me awhile to find one that wasn't form fitting, or too short for my taste. But I finally found one while I was on vacation. It was at the Polo Ralph Lauren Outlet, and it was on clearance.

Once I was back from vacation, I experiment with accessories and was able to come up with eight ways to wear a sweater dress. Here are my results.

Plain Basic Sweater Dress

Wearing  this type of dress plain doesn't look the greatest. It can make you look unflattering. And who wants to look like that? Not me! I want something that will look flattering on me! So on to the accessories!
