How do you feel about something empire waist or babydoll? Something with a v-neck to playup cleavage, but that doesn't cling to any tummy. I'll keep a look out.

What part of your upper body could you feature with your sweater choice?

If you have time to try stuff on, try both loose and fitted styles and see what works best.

Okay... in no particular order, here are some ideas for fun date sweaters.







pretty sweaters






funkier sweaters (one is a top)

My sister had this on the other night and she looked incredible in it. It really made the girls look great. Unfortunately, it looks kind of dowdy in this pic (it seemed more low cut, too):

NAN0189_M.jpg I like the details on this one, although it's pretty simple.

Laundry by Design Balloon Sleeve Sweater Again, simple but pretty. Comes in black as well.

BCBG Max Azria Merino Sweater Jacket Also in a cream color. Might work, depending on what you're trying to hide.

Plenty by Tracy Reese Tie Cardigan Cute!

Theory 'Kaydence' Short Sleeve Cashmere Sweater

Trina Turk Puff Sleeve Turtleneck

Laundry by Design Batwing Crewneck Sweater

Michael Stars Cashmere Babydoll Cardigan

And then there's always the Anthro contingency, which are cute and quirky but not sure about sexy...

Mistletoe Pullover Corallina Scoopneck Roadways Scoopneck

Boobaby,
I've seen that sweater! Its sold out where I live. Is it kensie? Where did you find it, if you don't mind my asking?
I agree- its super flattering, as is the other kenzie sweater that came around about the same time, with tight sleeves and long torso (unfortunately I haven't been able to find it online anywhere)..

Sorry, it wasn't obvious from the model.  In any case, Kenzie did one this year that was almost identical, which would in fact be my recommendation.  Good choice!
