Over the years, my closet has gone through dozens of clean-outs. I care a lot about each item of clothing that I own, so I've gone back and forth time and time again about every piece that I end up donating. Lately, I've been in limbo about items like puff-sleeve dresses that take up way too much space or the 17th pair of jeans I own that I really don't need. There are very few categories I can name that don't require this annual debate, but one of them that I can't neglect to mention is the sweaterdress. The high-quality sweaterdresses I've purchased have remained in my closet since my high school graduation. This timeless staple is worth its weight in gold.
With that in mind, as I prepare my wardrobe for colder weather, I know I can't go wrong by buying another sweaterdress. I've scoured the market, and I'm convinced these 29 dresses are the absolute best. So, happy shopping!
