20 Statement Sweaters That Bring the Swagger

Anjerika Wilmer
Nov 08, 2016

See ya later, nubby knits and predictable fisherman crewnecks (been there, done that) — this season, we’ve only got eyes for statement sweaters — AKA, the more risk-taking toppers of the bunch that bring the swagger and traffic-stopping potential. Whether they’re decked out in sequins, covered in fringe or personalized with statement-making patches, you could say the latest crop of knits were made to slay. Cue the anything-but-basic puffer jackets and Instababe-approved ankle boots that will accompany you during many a blustery morning commute. Keep the cold weather trauma away with these MVP-worthy sweaters that will rack up all the style points this season. You’re so welcome.

1. Line & Dot Balloon-Sleeve Pullover ($98): Being a repeat outfit offender is NBD when you have a balloon-sleeve pullover with this much look-at-me appeal. Aside from the #girlboss-approved shade of red, the whimsical silhouette is enough to put you on any best-dressed list. Round out your look with a pair of dangling tassel earrings and some fancy steppers for a getup that’s straight-up boss.

2. Ban.do Coney Box Top Yellow Sweater ($290): Wah. In case you missed it, Ban.do just stocked their inventory with some rad new threads, including this OMG-worthy eclectic striped pullover — and, naturally, we need it in our life. Wear it for your family’s slightly cheesy annual holiday card, a Friendsgiving feast or even a low-key afternoon spent Netflix and chilling. It’s just that versatile.

3. BDG Radical Drop-Shoulder Pullover Sweater ($79): You said it first: Radical is practically your middle name, hence your tendency to gravitate toward statement-making pieces that can be spotted a mile away. Perfect your roll-out-of-bed-and-go routine with this drop-shoulder sweater (pssst: It’s just as comfy as it looks) with RN appeal. Bring on the lazy girl vibes with an off-duty beanie, high-performance leggings and shearling-lined boots.

4. Forever 21 Open-Knit Patch Sweater ($25): Honestly, if you’re not already sporting rad emoji-like patches on your sweater, then you’re really missing out. This BFF-approved knit sweater featuring hamburger, rainbow and rocket ship patches is for babes who know how to have fun (live a little, why don’t ya!). You could say we’re #obsessed.

5. For Love and Lemons Greenwich Crop ($149): Cropped and ready to mingle, this boss babe-approved sweater has hot date night written all over it. Wear it with high-waisted mom jeans and backless mules for a casual outing before switching it up with a trend-right suede mini skirt, a car coat and over-the-knee boots for a look that slays. We’re already on it.

6. Topshop Bright Trim Marle Jumper ($65): Details, people, details! Don’t you dare overlook the neon orange trim featured in this cozy marled pullover — or those peekaboo slits, for that matter. When you’re short on time, style this bad boy with high-waisted skinnies, Chelsea boots and a downtown puffer for a cold weather-approved getup that’s ready to combat the elements in style.

7. Glamorous Colorblock Sweater ($98): Rocking zero pizzazz during your morning commute simply isn’t an option when you’re a self-proclaimed street starlet in the making. Between the bold color-block design and flared trim, this entrance-making sweater won’t be flying under the radar anytime soon — especially with an Instababe-approved camel coat and some ugly-pretty faux fur steppers in tow.

8. Mango Contrast Trim Sweater ($40): A little bit athleisure, a lot old-school prep, this retro borrowed-from-the-boys pullover will work overtime to keep you looking effortlessly chic this season. Channel your girly side by tossing this contrast trim turtleneck sweater over a wool mini and riding boots, or go sporty with feel-good trousers and kicky heeled loafers for your nine-to-five. Round out your look with a messy just-woke-up-like-this lob and a subtle cheek stain.

9. Wildfox Duh Sweater ($186): What? Like dressing for single-digit temps is hard or something? As if we would turn down a chance to dial things way down with this tongue-in-cheek sweater that demands respect.

10. Glamorous Loopy Fringe Pullover Sweater ($148): The shaggier your sweater, the more fun to be had — or so the mantra goes in our mind. If this fringe-filled shag sweater with a super relaxed fit isn’t the definition of cozy, then we don’t know what is. Party on with some leather pants and biker boots or keep things on the DL with a trusty denim button-front skirt and fishnet tights for some timely post-festival season flair.

11. Scotch & Soda Lurex Jacquard Pullover ($198): Cue the heavy knit mohair sweaters that call to mind evenings spent roasting marshmallows by the fire and endless cups of hot cocoa. For maximum snugness, pair this luxe jacquard patterned pullover alongside a cashmere knit beanie, your winter whites (we’re eyeing those cream-colored jeans) and some suede desert boots.

12. J.Crew Gayle Tie-Neck Sweater ($80): Give Blair Waldorf a run for her money with this polished tie-neck sweater that will double for an afternoon of back-to-back meetings and seasonal hostessing duties. It’ll look just as divine teamed with a velvet skater skirt and bow-topped loafers as layered over a button-down dress shirt for a uniform that’s prim-and-proper AF. Come after-hours, sparkly chandelier earrings will put you in party mode like that.

13. Wildfox Fries With That Sweater ($164): This just in: You now have a quirky intarsia knit sweater to don in celebration of Fry-day. No further introduction needed — this is what we call a sartorial no-brainer, folks. *Adds to cart without hesitation.*

14. Mango Patched Sweater ($60): Patchwork FTW! Not just restricted to your collegiate days spent cheering on your fave team in the stands, this letterman-inspired sweater with striped sleeves will go hand-in-hand with your oversized bomber and lumberjack flannels (tied around your waist for an angsty grunge-inspired look, naturally) come the weekend.

15. English Factory Smiley Face Sweater ($75): If we had a smiley face sweater this downright chummy, then we’d be cheesin’ hard too. We’re pretty sure it’s impossible to be down in the dumps when your knitwear of choice packs this much personality. Layer it over a crisp white button-down for work, or style it with cropped denim flares and metallic platform loafers for a quick jaunt across town.

16. ASOS Sweater With Pom and Sequins ($83): Decorative poms and sequins? You shouldn’t have, ASOS (but we’re definitely not hating it). Usher in a “more is more” aesthetic with this playful knit sweater that’s guaranteed to turn any mundane Monday upside down. An extra peppy ponytail — complete with a ‘90s-sequel scrunchie, natch — will be required for an #OOTD that racks up the style points.

17. & Other Stories Pop and Block Sequined Sweater ($95): Part disco glam, part Zenon, Girl of the 21st Century, this flashy sequined sweater brings the dazzle factor. The navy and pink color-block detail lends just the right of oomph without downplaying any of the shimmer. Though maybe not HR-approved, this hero piece can double for a holiday office party, an upcoming GNO or a fall rager that carries on into the wee hours of the morning. A holographic mini and metallic silver ankle boots are a must.

18. Seint Relaxed Sassy Embroidered Sweater ($57): This relaxed ribbed sweater packs so much sass, we’re not even sure you can handle it. Wear your personality on your sleeve by teaming this wardrobe workhorse with black culottes for the boardroom (let your colleagues know you mean business) or when grabbing drinks at the bar on a Friday night for a don’t-mess-around ‘tude.

19. J.Crew Supersoft Wool Sweater in Multistripe ($90): Because you’ll inevitably need a sweater that’s playful enough to rival even your most cheeky beanie, this geek-chic rainbow striped sweater is pretty much non-negotiable. Some statement-making spectacles and sparkly ballerinas will be the perfect finishing touch.

20. Zara Oversized Sweater ($60): Orange you ready to pack on the layers and bundle up like an eskimo? Probs not, but at least you’ll have this oversized fluorescent sweater to keep you company when the first polar vortex hits. You best believe ripped jeans, a faux fur-trimmed parka and Doc Martens will be in order for a look that reads ‘90s wild child.

11 Fleece Jackets I’m Shopping To Brave The Freezing Temps

If you were to ask me about Denver winter, I’d say it’s alright. But if you really asked me about Denver winter, I’d say it makes me want to shrivel up in hibernation and abstain from the outdoors until the temperatures hit the mid-50’s again. I’m not joking when I say my city gets devastatingly cold – we’re likely to see temps in the tens and even sub-zero days once December and January hit. That’s why I’m prepping for the freeze now, with plenty of cozy winter layers, beanies, and of course, fleece jackets. Fleece jackets are an easy one-and-done piece to put on that isn’t a bulky winter parka, since they effectively insulate my body heat. There are a ton of cute fleece jackets out there that don’t sacrifice function for fashion – scroll on for my 11 faves that’ll certainly help you brave the cold!

Do fleece jackets keep you warm?

Nordstrom

Canada Goose Simcoe Fleece Zip-Up Jacket

Fleece jackets definitely keep you warm since they’re specially designed to insulate your body heat. Of course, the level of warmth you get from them all depends on the thickness and weight of the fleece, and whether you layer up with additional garments or not.

Are fleece jackets still in style?

Nordstrom

Florence by Mills High Pile Fleece Jacket

Yes, fleece jackets are absolutely still in style. Right now, they’re leading the popular ‘gorpcore’ aesthetic, which takes inspiration from outdoor activities like camping, hiking, and climbing. But, they can work for a variety of looks, since they’re shoppable in so many different colors, weights, and silhouettes.

What is the warmest type of fleece?

Nordstrom

UGG Marlene Heritage Braid High Pile Fleece Jacket

There are three different weight categories when it comes to fleece, with the lightest being the least warm and the heaviest being the most warm. Lightweight fleece measures 100-200GSM (grams per square meter), medium-weight fleece lands around 200-300GSM, and heavyweight fleece is anything over 300GSM. A fleece’s warmth also depends on the actual material the fleece is made from. Polar fleece, cotton fleece, and sherpa fleece are the most common types of fleece you can find. Polar fleece tends to be the warmest, since it’s denser.

Parks Project

Parks Project High Desert Wildflowers High Pile Fleece

The high pile fleece on this pullover not only makes it extremely winter-ready, but extremely soft on the skin, too. The two side pockets and button-up collar are perfect for tucking your away cold fingers and face when the temps really start to drop. The elastic cuffs and waistband help seal in even more heat when you need it most. Plus, this eye-catching brown floral pattern earns major style points.

Nordstrom

Barbour Violette Fleece Jacket

This deep green fleece jacket is equipped with plenty of brass buttons to help you customize your look and bundle up simultaneously. It has a fun contrasting trim to break up the color and incorporate that extra oomph your layered 'fits will be craving this winter.

Free People

Free People Hit The Slopes Fleece Jacket

This jacket boasts an easy-to-wear slouchy silhouette that's ideal for layering over long-sleeved shirts and turtlenecks without ever feeling overly bulky. I love the sporty vibe that the nylon patches and multiple zippered pockets give to this piece, allowing you to wear it casually or more formally. It also comes in 16 more colors to suit your personal style!

Nordstrom

Ugg Nikia Open Stitch Detail Uggfluff Fleece Jacket

If there's one thing Ugg has mastered, it's the art of staying warm. If you know the sheer coziness of their signature boots, this jacket has that same exact level of comfort and warmth! I love that the contrasting scalloped trim breaks up the monotony of the brown color on this piece and also helps shape your figure – which is much needed when you're bundled up underneath layers and layers of winter clothing. The drawstring along the waist, side pockets, and standing collar will come in handy for shielding the most vulnerable parts of your body during a harsh winter chill.

Target

All In Motion High Pile Fleece Jacket

This lighter-on-the-body fleece jacket is the perfect garment to grab after an intense workout when it's time to step out in the cold. It flaunts a nice hood to protect your head and neck, plus thick elastic bands along the wrists and waist, which fit snugly against your bod to insulate valuable body heat.

Cotopaxi

Cotopaxi Bacano Fleece Jacket

Cotopaxi truly knows what it means to brave freezing temps – their line of expertly-designed puffer jackets and fleece jackets are ultra-warm, and this fleecy pick is no different! The high-pile fleece material on this style sets you up for success in terms of keeping cold out and warmth in. You'll be surrounded in sheer coziness all season, thanks to the adjustable drawstring waist and high neckline. I'm also a huge fan of the contrasting zippers and retro-inspired patchwork to make any winter look stand out, whether you're hitting the slopes or running errands.

Urban Outfitters

Kimchi Blue Snow Bunny Piled Fleece Zip-Up Jacket

This pick is like a wearable blanket. The soft fleece is constructed to a boxy, relaxed fit that you can practically wear anywhere. It's fitted with elastic cuffs on the wrists and waist, and you can adjust the level of zippered-up-ness (depending on how cold it is) using the two-way zippers along the front.

Nordstrom

THE GREAT. The Pasture Horse Print Fleece Jacket

All summer long, I was a huge proponent of Horse Girl Summer, which is why I'm heavily eyeing this fleece jacket – I can easily take the Wild West sentiment into my winter outfits with it! I love the cozy low-pile fleece material for layering over other pieces, and I also adore the unique details on this jacket, from the scooped hem to the contrasting spread collar. Yeehaw, am I right?!

Old Navy

Old Navy '94 Half Zip

Part of Old Navy's recently-revived 1994 collection, this half-zip pullover jacket infuses throwback flair with modern convenience. The fleece material is soft on the skin and heat-insulating, so it doesn't ever sacrifice function for fashion. The mock neck shrouds your neckline in warmth, which is perfect for extra-cold days. You can also keep your hands shielded, too, thanks to the zippered side pockets. I love this toned-down burgundy color, though it's shoppable in 5 more vibrant hues like blue and yellow.

Urban Outfitters

BDG Taylor Piled Fleece Aviator Jacket

With a chic mix of cream-colored fleece and black faux leather, this fleece jacket is definitely for those who don't like to abandon the 'fit for cold weather. It follows a boxy, aviator jacket-inspired silhouette that provides ample space for cold-weather layering. The fluffy collar brings even more coziness to your look!

Anthropologie

Varley Roselle Half-Zip Fleece

This half-zip fleece jacket is as sweet as can be. I can see it working really well for cozy WFH days in the midst of wintertime! The waistline is loose-fitting, which adds to its comfort. It's fitted with zippers on both sides that you can adjust for the perfect body-hugging look.

Tommy Hilfiger Crossover-Hem Dress

Florals for spring aren't groundbreaking, but during fall they are.

It has an invisible back zipper for a seamless look and is lined in case you're afraid of wearing something sheer.

Macy's

Avec Les Filles Faux Leather Drop-Waist Dress

It's hard to believe, but leather dresses can be sexy without revealing a lot of skin. The bodice is fitted, but the 'skirt' portion flares out, offering a nice balance that makes you feel comfortable. Plus, we just love a drop waist!

Macy's

Lauren Ralph Lauren Double-Faced Georgette Shirtdress

Add pops of flirty color to your fall wardrobe with Vince Camuto's belted dress!

Macy's

DKNY Ombré Belted Pleat Skirt Dress

You can easily get away with wearing this pleat skirt dress to work or church because the hemline rests right below your knees. The cute contrast between the solid top and pinstriped bottom keeps it from being anything but boring which is the goal for fall.

Macy's

24seven Comfort Apparel Collared Wrap Dress

Dressing for comfort is at the top of everyone's list this fall, so it makes sense to have a collared wrap dress on-hand this season. It's the easiest way to look sophisticated without trying too hard. All you'll need are a pair of cute Target heels, cute jewelry, and one of your wool fall coats to complete your look.

Macy's

En Saison Mixed Media Dress

You have to buy at least one cute ribbed dress during fall — it's an essential piece that signals the transitional weather. Though the temps can fluctuate depending on where you live, you can definitely get away with wearing this dress once temperatures drop down to 65 degrees and or lower!

Macy's

ELOQUII Plus Size Funnel Neck Dress

This easy fit dress was made for fall! You don't have to worry about pesky zippers because you just simply pull it over your head and it glides right over your curves. It does have a funnel neckline, but the fabric will accentuate your hips in the best way.

Happiness and fulfillment await those willing to adapt and grow.

This month ends with the Sun in Sagittarius on November 21 and Mercury Retrograde on November 25. Sagittarius season invokes wanderlust, adventure, and growth. Remember that you'll reign this season as you remain open-minded to new concepts and ideas.

Close-mindedness and dismissiveness of others' input lead to dead ends.

As we conclude working with Mercury’s backspin this month, steer clear of making traveling plans (like booking a ticket/itinerary), launching a business, or signing contracts. Plus, it will help you streamline your messages, think through your personal beliefs, and change your attitudes towards life. Going through reflection will help you gravitate toward your desired outcomes.

Which signs will be most affected in November?

Juliane Monari

As we journey through November 2024, Scorpio, Taurus, Aquarius, and Sagittariuswill each feel the cosmic waves uniquely. Scorpios will harness the transformative energy of the New Moon to reflect on their desires and initiate powerful changes. Taurus will be called to acknowledge new narratives during the Full Moon, prompting them to take control of their path and make intentional decisions. Aquarians will experience a significant shift as Pluto settles into their sign, inviting them to envision a brighter future and release old patterns that no longer serve them. Meanwhile, Sagittarians will be inspired by the Sun’s entry into their sign, igniting a sense of adventure and growth. However, they should navigate Mercury's retrograde carefully to avoid miscommunications and hasty decisions. Allow these energies to guide you toward a more fulfilled and intentional existence this month!
