Help me find a winter version of this dress?

Anonymous
I have the Boden Lola Jersey dress in many colors and I love it. It’s easy to wear, flattering in my tall, pear shaped self, comes in long/tall, and looks good with sneakers as well as flats/sandals. Unfortunately, Boden does not make a slightly warmer version for winter- slightly thicker fabric, maybe, with 3/4 length sleeves would be perfect! Alas, no luck.

Here’s what it looks like- can’t figure out how to post a picture so here’s a link

So I’ve been looking around at Madewell, Gap and Old Navy for other options and coming up short. Can you help? I’m a teacher and I need uncomplicated easy to wear pieces like the Lola dress but for winter!

Thanks.

Why not just wear this dress with a cardigan, tights, and boots?

Would any of these work? Your Lola from Boden is on left.



Left to right:

1. Lola at $90 marked down to $63
2. DVF's Astrid Midi in cashmere + wool at $448
3. DKNY wrap midi sheath in rayon/poly at $119
4. Anne Klein sweater wrap in cotton/poly at $99

Give me price point, or colors, or materials, or length, or sizes, and I can tailor the search more. This is just a sample.

This. If you are a true pear, this RL cut is very flattering (much more so than DVF wraps, IMHO, for a pear). I am not tall, though, so I can't speak to length.

That makes sense re: pear shape.

This is helpful- thank you! OP here. $150 or less since I want to buy more than one. I like the Jersey of the Lola. And yes I plan to do tights and boots and a cardigan with my black one. The others I have are too summery in color/pattern. Thanks for the recommendations! I’ll go looking. You guys are awesome!
