Ok, here's what I bought and kept.

The Lafayette 148 sweater dress with sparkles at cuffs, hem, and mock neck.

Angie picks:
The black and white Boss sweater skirt. Returned one and got a snugger size to make Mr. April happy.

The vegan leather skirt. I fear true wrap skirts (always one stiff breeze away from a wardrobe malfunction) but the fabric is so buttery and the aubergine color so heavenly, I will make it work.

The Max Mara Leisure dress.
