Ann Taylor 3/4-Sleeve Sweaterdress ($139)

Forest green is the color I’m currently mad about.  So when I spotted this sweater dress, I had to have it.  It has an empire waist, which isn’t my favorite, but it fits so close to the body that it fits like a sheath.  Ann Taylor also offers a sweater dress with an elbow-length sleeve in dark green.

If you’re looking for something similar for less, I found this Liz Claiborne dress at JCPenney that could be its twin.  They also offer a sweater dress in the same color in a v-neck if you prefer.  That style also comes in plus-sizes.

Look for Less

    LOVE the budget friendly JC Penney dress! I’ve been digging all of the emerald and hunter greens available now, so I may just have to pick this one up.

    The second link (Ann Taylor dress with elbow length sleeves) actually links out to one of the JCP dresses. Just FYI.

    I missed out on the more teal version of this color last season and have regretted it. Looking to combine the retro midi length with the color and sleeves. Your post has inspired me to go looking. Thanks.

    Thank you for posting a v-neck version, love it!

    Looks like the AT dress is only available online in an L, XL, and XXL. Belle, what size did you get? I’m usually a 4 or 6 in AT clothing, so I’m afraid the available sizes may not work without tailoring (which may be tricky to do with a sweaterdress).

      There must have been a sale this weekend. I grabbed mine last week in a S, and it was a little big, but I like that in a sweater dress.

    The dress looks lovely. How body con is it? I have a few lumps I’d rather not accentuate.

Beauty Review: Bondi Boost

As I age, I notice many changes in my body. Most are fine. Some are frustrating. Like many women, I lost a lot of hair in my postpartum phase. Being anemic for more than a year after, it didn’t grow back in to its former glory. So I’ve tried any number of shampoos, pills and […]

The Find: Shirts That Don’t Gape

I remember when Rochelle Behrens launched The Shirt — a button-down blouse with anti-gape technology (a patented internal button that keeps the look smooth). The idea seemed brilliant, but at the time, my bust didn’t require an extra button. One baby later, I understand the need for some extra security.

They’re a great piece that you can throw on any time you need to look pulled together. Here are a few choices.

The Mondays: March 18, 2024

This weekend was a tricky one. The warm weather and bright sunshine of last weekend disappeared in a flurry of wet snow trapping our very active 18-month-old in the house with us. Plus, our babysitter cancelled, so neither of us feels ready for the week ahead. But in between making mac-and-cheese and watching Aristocats for […]
