Sweater Dress | Day to Night

Cheers to Friday, friends! I hope your week has been grand, and you have fun weekend plans ahead! Our cruise comes to an end today, and sadly, it’s time to say good-bye to my fun blogger friends, and the spoiled life at sea. We’ve had so much fun on this crazy Sailing with the Scotts adventure (see what we’ve been up to on Instagram or Facebook), and I can’t wait to share more with you in the coming weeks.

The upside of the week coming to an end, is I’ll be reunited with Mr. SP for a a few days in Miami, and then back home to my babes. And while it’s perpetually Summer where I am now, it’s all about sweater-weather at home. In particular, cute and versatile sweater dresses!

I was instantly smitten with the easy, yet flattering, fit of this cowl neck sweater dress. The hardest part was deciding which of the great colors to get! Lucky for me, it keeps going on sale, so I scooped up the ‘barnswallow’ color, as well as the black. (Who thinks up these color names?!)


You know my clothes must all pull double and triple duty (or even 5 Ways!), so I thought I’d show you how I wear this chic little number Day to Night.

This dress has such an easy fit, yet hugs just enough to be flattering. I find it a tad scratchy, so I layer a tank underneath. It’s perfect now with booties, but will easily transition to colder days with dark tights and boots.

You may notice I followed my tried-and-true Rule of Three…dress + leopard cuff + plaid bag.

Then with an accessories swap, and the addition of a jacket, this outfit easily transitions to Nighttime fun. You could pair it with pumps or strappy heels for work, but I also like the edgy feel of the booties and leather jacket for evening.

Can we talk about these earrings for a second?! So fun and festive (and crazy lightweight…I can’t do earring that drag my lobes down!). They are perfect for holiday season, and will dress up most any outfit. I wore them all week on the cruise and received countless compliments.

And because I love this dress so much, and just can’t help myself, here’s a bonus ‘Day look.’

This look would work with most any vest or jacket, and knee boots (like these)…including rain boots! And if it’s extra cold where you are, add black tights.

I still adore my Look for Less pink rain boots, but I can’t seem to get enough of these real-deals…so lightweight and comfortable! Fortunately for me, we’ve had a rainy Fall!

I’m still picking leaves and twigs out of my hair, but I hope you were inspired with new ways for mixing up your Fall dresses. Which look is your favorite? Are you a fan of sweater dresses? Happy weekend, lovebugs!
