Julia Jordan Collared Ribbed Knit Midi Dress
Marshalls
Sweater dresses are a timeless fall wardrobe staple, and this swingy brown knit will prove to be equal parts comfortable and stylish for your travels.

The lightweight, breathable knit is best suited for the early fall since it’s not too heavy and won’t take up much space in your bag, and it’ll stand apart from other sweaters in your collection with a black-trimmed collar and loose, casual fit.
