Colder Days Are Coming. 5 Reasons I'm Reaching for This Knit Dress Instead of Jeans.

A comfortable, easy alternative to sweaters and jeans as the weather turns colder.

I write one of these for every order.

The mornings have turned a little colder lately, and I’ve started thinking about what I’ll actually want to wear over the next few months.

Every year, it’s the same thing. Sweaters, jeans, maybe a cardigan over the top.

And there’s nothing wrong with any of that.

But after a few weeks, I start feeling like I’m wearing the same outfit over and over again.

Sometimes I just want something different. Something that feels just as comfortable, but looks a little more put-together without having to think too much about it.

That’s why I wanted to tell you about the Maren™ Dress.

It’s the sort of simple knit dress I can picture wearing on a chilly morning, with ankle boots for lunch, or under a coat when I’m heading out.

Here are five little reasons I think it’s worth a closer look.

A Cozy Knit for the Colder Days Ahead

The first thing you notice is the ribbed knit. Add long sleeves and a midi-length hem, and you have the kind of dress that looks right at home on a chilly morning. Wear it on its own indoors or add your favorite coat when you head out. It’s an easy way to bring that cozy sweater feeling into an outfit that looks a little more dressed up.

Comfortable Enough for a Full Day Out

Some days start with coffee at home and end with an unplanned visit or lunch out. The Maren™ Dress is a single, easy piece you can put on in the morning and keep on as your plans change. Its relaxed knit style suits the everyday moments when you want to feel comfortable but still look ready to step outside.

A Relaxed Fit You Can Move Around In

A chilly day usually involves plenty of moving around: getting into the car, carrying groceries, sitting down for coffee, heading out again. The Maren™ Dress has a relaxed shape rather than a fitted waist, so it feels like an easy choice for ordinary days. Check the measurements on the product page to find the amount of room you prefer.

Easy to Wear With Boots and a Coat

This might be my favorite part. Brown ankle boots and a coat for an afternoon out. A cardigan for coffee. A simple necklace when you’re meeting a friend for lunch. You don’t need to plan a whole outfit around it. The Maren™ Dress comes in easy-to-pair colors, including oatmeal, black and red, so you can choose the one that works with what’s already in your closet.

A Button-Neck Collar and Handy Side Pockets

It’s often the little things that make you reach for a dress again. The button-neck collar gives the Maren™ Dress a little character, and you can wear it fastened or slightly open. Then there are the side pockets. Somewhere for your keys, a tissue or your hands while you’re standing in the kitchen. Practical details, without making a fuss about them.

So if you’re tired of reaching for the same sweater and jeans every chilly morning, the Maren™ Dress is worth a look. You can see the colors, sizing and full details on the product page.
