How is everyone surviving the sub-zero temperatures that are gripping 80% of the states? Arkansas has reported new low-temperature records, and Texans are asked to preserve energy during freezing conditions. And they’re snowboarding in Alabama. Although some Alabamans might not have the right equipment to glide down the hill - puffer jackets, boots, gloves, and hats, not to mention a snowboard are all required. A winter storm is headed to Maryland and parts of D.C. and NE Virginia. Yikes! Yesterday in Athens, it was a balmy forty-five degrees and rain, then things really cooled off with an overnight low of 17 degrees! So what do you wear on a winter day? One of my favorite style formulas is a sweater dress + boots. It’s cozy and comfy and 100% cute – Stay Warm and Chic with a Winter Sweater Dress.

This sweater dress from Barbour will transition easily to spring since it’s 81% cotton and 19% polyamide. It features a wide funnel neck and rib-knit construction. Of course, tights are a given when the temps are frigid, but when milder temperatures prevail, I will forgo tights in lieu of socks. The rule of thumb for wearing tights is to match your dress/skirt or your boots.

When this photo was snapped, the weather hovered in the upper 50s, which was cool enough for a jacket but not a heavy coat. Enter an oversized Levi’s trucker jacket that’s the perfect companion to a sweater dress.

Give me all the boots all winter long, especially when they are as cute as this pair I purchased last fall from J.Crew. This always happens this time of year, but these stacked-heel boots are sold out (similar here, here, and here). I recently partnered with Vivaia on YouTube, which has some cute boots available.

The picture above the fireplace (two boats) I absolutely love, can you tell me where I might find/purchase it?
Love, love, love sweater dresses!
I just wish they made dresses more appropriate….just below the knee is so much more flattering and classy…
I purchased the Trucker denim jacket from the Levi’s store. It is super comfy. The store had the option of adding appliques, embroidery, or paint to the jacket. I opted to have flowers painted on the jacket. They are also painting the buttons. Can’t wait to see the finished result. I was impressed with the quality of the denim pants and jackets. The store also offered tailoring. Will definitely buy any denim items from the Levi store in the future.
