25 Chic Sweaters to Snuggle Up in All Season Long
ICYMI: Summer is officially over (we know, we know), and that means it’s time to embrace warm and snuggly separates with open arms — and closets. In addition to an arsenal of chic outerwear (and if you haven’t scooped up a stellar fall jacket or coat just yet, best get on it stat), luxe layering pieces and fall outfit formulas up your sleeve, a carefully curated selection of new-season sweaters is essential. Because, let’s be real — can it even be considered fall without a few of these wardrobe workhorses on standby? Between adventures to the orchard and laid-back Netflix marathons, they’re the one cool-weather topper you can always count on. Here, we’ve pulled 25 OMG-worthy options that will get you through the most frigid fall days in style.
1. Mango Zip Cotton Sweater ($80): All zipped up and ready to go. Brighten up everyday duds with this vibrant pullover that strikes the ultimate balance of form and function. Layer it over a swingy maxi dress and lace-up booties or do it up off-duty style with high-waisted jeans and embellished loafers.

Mara Hoffman Bolnisi Rug Knit Sweater ($498): As much of a splurge as this printed masterpiece is, it has that forever kind of appeal that just might justify dropping the few extra bucks — especially when you see it in action with runway-ready ankle boots, a metallic pleated skirt and a basic band tee.
