Pair this with over-the-knee boots and you have a great fall/winter look. After wearing this out for one night, I received a handful of compliments. I highly recommend this dress." —Brittany

Promising review: "I love, love, love this dress! I got a medium and it fits perfectly. The material is great quality. It is thick enough to be a winter dress, but could be worn in any season. The belt is great, it helps create a waistline and breaks up the all-black dress." —Gregory Glaze

5. A wrap sweater dress that's definitive proof you can still stop the show and turn heads rocking long sleeves and tights.
Promising review: "I recently had my baby shower and the theme was 'Baby It’s Cold Outside.' I looked everywhere for a pink maternity sweater dress but it was extremely hard to find. I decided to take a risk and buy a regular, non-maternity dress and hoped that it would fit. I ordered this one and I had no regrets! It stretches to fit the whole body. My husband also loved it! Even better was the price and that the quality is so good that I’ll be able to wear it many more times, even after my pregnancy!" —Nadine

Promising review: "This is now my favorite fall dress. It was a perfect fit. I received it about 9 a.m. and immediately put it on for a 10 a.m. meeting! The sweater material is really soft. The sleeve patches are micro-suede and the pattern pieces are soft flannel. The dress is a to-die-for combination of comfort, chic, and coziness! I want one in every color!!" —Christen
Get it from Amazon for $27.99 (available in sizes S–XXL and six colors).

Promising review: "Amazing!! I was worried about it being too short. Nope! It goes down past the middle of my thighs. So, for anyone worried about length, it’s perfect! Also the material is amazing!!! The material is sooooooo soft. It feels like it should be expensive! With that being said it’s perfect for any place or any size. There’s pockets too!!! This is a huge plus! Also my arms are really long and I loveeeeee the fact that the sleeves actually covered my entire arm. This is a great product!!! I gave five stars for all of the reasons I listed above and because I loved the way I was able to dress it up. I would just suggest a belt, but no belt could work too if you are looking for something less form fitting." —Jennifer Topps

Promising review: "I usually wear a small but I got a medium. I'm glad I read previous reviews to do so. It fits perfect. The material is very soft, like silk. It's good for winter because it's thick and keeps you warm. I've never ordered clothes from Amazon and I'm very impressed. I got the creamy white and it's more like off white. I'm going to order another one in a different color! It's well worth the price. Plus, I received it sooner than Amazon said." —Robin

Promising review: "I am absolutely in love with this oversized sweater! The shape of it is beautiful. Some oversized items lack shape, this one however does not. I love the length as it could be worn as a sweater dress, too. Material is not too itchy and just soft enough that you won’t need a tank underneath. Planning to order in a different color next!" —brittany Combs

Promising review: "This dress is AMAZING. Definitely a must buy. I have a small bust and I'm curvy. This dress' fit is amazing. The material is soft but heavy enough that if you didn’t want to wear undergarments you wouldn’t see through it. The material just floats over the body. It sits in the middle of the shoulder to give an almost hanging on the shoulder look. It’s definitely a sexy look without trying too hard. Grab this dress." —Jamie

Promising review: "Okay, I am totally in love with this dress. I am always skeptical buying clothes online, especially dresses, when I can’t try them on. But WOW. This dress is so beautiful. It fits like a dream and the material is such wonderful quality. I have already bought it in two colors. I love the tight fit, and that it’s not too tight but just tight enough. This dress keeps me incredibly warm as well, so I can totally wear it during the winter time! I love that the tie is a separate piece because you can make it just how you want. It’s a perfect fit!

Promising review: "I purchased this dress to wear to my birthday dinner. My birthday is in the winter and I wanted something that would keep me warm but didn't look like a frock. A lot of winter dresses I came across weren't very appealing. I happened to come across this dress and it looked exactly like the style I was looking for at an affordable price. The material is nice and breathable. I didn't feel too hot in it but it also kept me warm when I was outside. I am 5'5" and it came below my shin. It accentuates your curves. 10/10 would recommend." —BJ
