Hi cheery friends,

Ladies, whether you like it or not  you are going to have to style a knit dress this winter ,and I am going to help you do just that. I don’t know about you ,but I am a dress kind of girl so you know I can be of assistance in this case.  When wearing a knit dress or sweater dress, you want to look fashionable, but at the same time cozy and cute. The charming thing about knit dresses is the stretch and flexibility of the fabric which allows for easy movement. Don’t get me wrong, keeping warm is my top priority during the winter, but at the same time, I want to look good and therefore feel good. How we feel on the inside has a big impact on how our day unfolds

Just so you know, not all knit dresses are built equally! Knit dresses for women come in a variety of styles- cable knit, ribbed or chunky.  Cable knit dresses have intertwined weaving  that creates a dense and textured look. Due to this, they can add volume which makes them great for those with a super slim or hourglass shape.  Those with a fuller figure might want to steer clear but again you can still go for the look if you want. This is the dress for super cold temperatures but be prepared to be extra warm when you go indoors!

Ribbed knit dresses have a vertical pattern and therefore give an elongating effect. This is the dress for all body types and are especially  flattering for curvy women without adding bulk. They are also beneficial to those with petite frames as it creates the illusion of height.

Chunky knit dresses are the most dense with thick yarn and large stitching providing a relaxed and a cozy appearance.  This style is best for those with a slimmer build. If you are curvy, it’s best to choose a fitted chunky knit dresses so you can highlight your figure. These go well with ankle boots and a belt to define the waist.

How to Style Knit Dresses

A belt is some sort of magic wand! Adding a belt to your knit dress defines the waist and creates a flattering silhouette. It also upgrades the look from basic to sophisticated.

Pair your knit dress with a long pendant necklace to elongate your figure if the dress is short , and a collar necklace if long.

Knit dresses and knee-high boots pair well together. When these two are combined, it creates an effortlessly cozy and comfy look. .  There is a balance from showing just the right amount of leg and the polished look for the knee high boots.

Add booties to your knit dress to add sophistication to your outfit. This combo makes me look taller, and I also love the mix of casual and chic. Booties are great for when you want to add playfulness to an outfit and not look too serious.
