Burgundy Sweater Dress :: Hits & Misses # 15

BurgundySweaterDress_SydneysFashionDiary

Sweater dresses are a staple in any Fall closet. Bonus point if they're in a Fall appropriate color like burgundy. This dress is one of the two items I received from my last Shein order. I am pleasantly surprised by how great it is. The material is fairly thick and not scratchy. The length is appropriate (not too long or too short on my 5'2" frame). The sweater dress is so versatile and can be styled many different ways. I am pairing it with my leather jacket here. When it gets colder outside, I can layer a turtleneck underneath, put on a pair of tights or a fur vest as an added layer. The possibilities are endless.

On the other side of the spectrum, this dress is a miss for me. I wanted something a little different and thought this would make a great dress for work. Unfortunately, the sleeves are very large and just look weird on me. If anyone's interested in this dress, just leave me a comment below, I'll mail it to you (no longer available)

I'd be interested in the second dress! Is it as jewel-toned as it looks in the photo?

@Tracy Chen It's more like navy in person. If you're interested. Please email me your address.

I love the dress on you. At almost 5'10'' it would be too short on me! I always find it helpful when people mention their height.
