Ode to the perfect Sweater Dress

Recently I rummaged through my mother's closet.  (Great place to look for vintage fashions) Lucky for me my mother was, (STILL IS) a fashion/costume designer and she has kept a closet full of classic looks.  I was looking for this sweater dress she used to wear in the 80's; striped, full, wool, and warm.  It does get a bit chilly at night in Los Angeles and a sweater dress is well suited for an evening out. Unfortunately the dress is put away in the winter box.  The winter box of course is in the garage. It's moments like this when I wish I lived in New York and we would've already pulled out the 'winter box'(es) from storage and I'd have my perfect dress tonight. So I did what anyone girl would do...I hunted for the perfect sweater dress.

I did not have such luck today finding the perfect chunky, soft, sweet, yet sexy, sweater dress.  But with any classic look, it takes time.  I will hunt again tomorrow.

New Year's Eve Sweater

On New Year's Eve I had the perfect little(well, not so little) black dress ready to wear.  At the last minute we changed our plans and decide to stay close to home. Well, with only a few hours to change my style I re-designed a turtle neck sweater that I had in the closet.  Clever yes? Let me know what you think.
