Everyday Fits – Sweaters to Wear on Repeat
Is there a more prized possession than your favorite sweater? While cocktail dresses may hog all the attention, we are all in agreement that our beloved sweaters are the ride or die pieces of our closet that never fail to make us look and feel comfortable. So much so, we generally wear them down to threads and have a tough time letting them go. If you have been struggling to accept that your most prized jumpers have seen better days, this Alpaca Blend Knit Sweater ($70) in its dreamy terracotta pink shade will help you move on swiftly. Or this Cable Knit Sweater ($50) already looks right at home in our wardrobes. If color is your thing, stay bright right through until spring in this Knit Zip Sweater ($50) that was made for throwing on for weekend brunching.
Sleek Knit Fits for Office Days
There is no need to dread returning to the office or having to do actual face to face meetings when you have one of these stylish knits in your collection. You may even find yourself excited to have the chance to wear them. Proving that when it comes to dressing, comfort and sophistication can go hand in hand, these sweaters keep the cozy factor but maintain an effortless elevated style. This positional Wool Blend Knit Sweater ($50) has all the roominess of an oversize fit but the clever design means it snatches you in at the waist for definition without ever feeling restrictive. For those who prefer to maintain a capsule wardrobe, this Fine Knit Cape Top ($23) can be worn in a variety of ways making it a great option for minimal packing when traveling and if you don’t already own one, this Basic Turtleneck Knit Sweater ($40) in black is the cornerstone of any good winter wardrobe.
Snug as a Bug
Forget mermaidcore, this fall we are unashamedly embracing Granny Chic in these cozy cardigans that have us wanting to make like the groundhogs and hibernate in our homes until spring. Fortunately for us, Zara has designed these beauties with both style and maximum snugness in mind. Don’t put your summer dresses away just yet; instead, team them with this Open Knit Cardigan ($90) and a pair of wool tights for a Parisian inspired laid back vibe. This Long Cable Knit Coat ($130) even has a hood to keep you protected from the rain, and if you love to add a hint of sparkle to your outfits, this Open Cardigan ($60) has an ever so subtle metallic thread running through it.
Worn with jeans or over dresses, sweaters are one of the few pieces of clothing you are guaranteed to get wear out of over and over again. Whichever style you decide to invest in, there is no doubt it is sure to become a wardrobe staple.
