long sleeved black dress Thats So Fetch | Mayla Sleeve | while a ruched hip brings subtle texture and movement Back In Time Long Sleeve

I saw an ad for a Merino wool wrap sweater dress in terracotta and was inspired to make my own, except in a faux wrap style (easier to deal with) and in a faux wool (easier to wash)

The tiered chiffon skirt cascades beautifully, creating a graceful, airy effect as you move

On cooler days, I would pair this with a blazer or cardigan

I find the actual, oversized sweater styles to be the least flattering (hence why this post looks best in Spring over Fall) because I have a hard time balancing the upper and lower parts of my body

Delicate embellishments add a hint of sparkle, perfect for garden weddings, romantic evenings, or a red-carpet moment
