I am definitely guilty of falling in the “gothy” category now and again! =X

That dress is stunning! Really great example of how horizontal lines can -help- you, rather than work against you.

I tried on this dress at Le Chateau the other day, and was quite blown away. http://www.le-chateau.com/en/striped-sweater-dress (Not blown away enough to buy it, since I’d already spent too much money… but I’ll probably go back for it.) I’m a medium-sized hourglass, and it fit me perfectly, plus the decreasing stripes in the skirt are very minimising, if the bottom sand of your glass isn’t what you want to point out to viewers.

And while I love horizontal stripes, I find that the even kind (like the blue dress above) have a strong tendency to look either kiddish or vaguely Gothy. The uneven stripes on this dress are more sophisticated.

Love the Pop Knit and House of Cassette dresses! I look horrible in the Dolman style, but it does look great on some people.

Just purchased a dark blue, knit sweater dress at H&M a couple weeks ago and have gotten my fair share of use out of it already! Since it’s knit and kind of bulky (but still fitted!) it keeps me oh-so-warm!

Sweater dresses are great this time of year, trends be damned. One of my coworkers wore one with tights and boots yesterday and received compliments all day on how good she looked. She was flattered but also amazed because it was “the most comfortable outfit ever, like being at home in my pajamas.” And it’s true–they’re so comfy!

I love the first one! What a unique way to highlight a figure – colorblocking instead of the cut.
