Pajamas in Public-the Sweatshirt Dress

 

Sweatshirt Dress // Booties









     Ya'll! Whoever invented the Sweatshirt Dress is a genius!  I can look like I have my act together while feeling like I'm in pajamas.  I almost feel guilty...almost!  I don't care how cute something might be, comfort is key.  No one looks cute fidgeting and messing with uncomfortable clothing!  So... Fall hasn't fully arrived here in VA, (80s, are you kidding me?!)  but once those cool temps roll in, this will be darling with tights and tall boots or an over-the-knee boot for a night out.  For now, I paired the dress with these flattering booties in a surprisingly versatile pink from the Nordstrom sale.  I got them originally to pair with my Olive Green pieces, but they really bring a little brightness to the grey.  

     I hadn't shopped at Abercrombie & Fitch for quite a few years (since college) and I am so pleasantly surprised by their quality!  This dress is cozy, beautifully made, and they offer petite and tall in addition to their "regular" sizing.  I'm 5'4", I know you thought I was so much taller ;), and am wearing this in the petite sizing.  If I were going to wear this to work, I'd have gotten the regular sizing for a little more length.  Since it's a cold weather piece that I'll be layering with leggings and such, I'm not worried.  I also snagged a plaid coat on this order as well, and I'm in love!  It's basically a blanket with sleeves; Sherpa lined and the softest coat you'll find this season.

Happy styling!
