Fall Trends 2016: Sweater Dress and a Shawl

November 28, 2016 by Double Minted

The best part about fall in northern California is that you can start to wear fall styles without really having to bundle up. It’s not until now at the end of November that daytime temps start to drop below 60° (15° C), so until a light jacket or a wrap is all you really need to keep away the chill during the day. We get to enjoy the fun of layering without worrying about practicality.

There are some brands that follow fads but still manage to be true to a core principle. In the case of Bebe, the colors, styles, and embellishments they choose may change, but you’re pretty much guaranteed that anything Bebe will be skin tight and lots of fun, no matter what decade it’s from. This sweater dress is definitely form fitting, but pairing it with a shawl and a sophisticated mary-jane heel takes this look from club to gala.
