I Thought I Had Enough Dresses and Sweaters, But Then I Saw These Pretty Styles
I'm always in the mood to add any newness to my closet—no matter how many similar pieces I own. If you feel the same, I know you love any excuse to scroll through all the prettiest, freshest styles hitting your favorite retailers. Since we're still in the throes of winter (bring me warm weather already!), adding a sweater or five to your collection is never a bad thing in an effort to bundle up and layer your outfits. From cardigans to chunky knits, you can choose the thickness you're looking for and you can even wear them over dresses.
And speaking of the latter, we've also compiled those in a range of styles including more seasonally appropriate sweater dresses and long-sleeve ones, as well as more forward-looking options for spring and any upcoming trips. (Even if you're just manifesting a vacation in your head, anyway.) Keep scrolling to shop all the latest below, whether you're looking for a cute sweater, dress, or both! Why not?
