Capitalize on this year’s sweater weather by investing in some staple pieces for your closet. From cashmere to cardigans and Amazon to L. L. Bean, we found the perfect match for your unique style.

Fall Trends to be on the Look-Out for

Comfy and casual loungewear has been all the rage lately, so with a lot of us staying home during this time, we don’t see this trend going anywhere! Instead, it’ll just adapt to fit the fall temperature drop. Elevated loungewear is an excellent start if you’re transitioning back to campus or the office after working from home. Pair your most-worn crew neck with structured pants and over-the-knee boots to avoid looking like you just rolled out of bed (even if you just did). Nobody said you had to ditch your comfy clothes, just refine them!

Recent worldly events have us all yearning for simpler times… (cue, the nationwide thirst for ‘90s nostalgia). What does this mean for fashion? Sweater vests, sweater vests, and more sweater vests. They prove to be perfect for layering and enhancing your favorite street-style looks. Other major players in the ‘90s nostalgia category are graphic designs of all your favorite throw-back characters or pop culture references from your childhood. You’ll find our top recommendations mentioned below.

Our Top 10 Warm Sweaters for Women

Ballet-inspired fashion recently hit the scene and offers a careful curation of comfort, functionality, elegance, and simplicity. The resurgence of ballet flats, back with a modern vengeance, speaks volumes about this growing trend. Wrap sweaters and cropped pullovers that mimic ballet dancers’ warm-up gear are both pretty and practical. We love to see it! A new spin on a timeless classic.

Are you hesitant to say goodbye to your colorful summer closet so soon? Although we adore a good neutral moment, fall isn’t just for tans and browns! We also expect to see repurposed pops of color. Swap out your seasonal neon shades for saturated jewel tones to achieve a similar effect.

Don’t be surprised to see more cutouts, ribbed and other textured materials, matching sets, the return of color-blocking, and the reimagined formerly “preppy” collar when resorting to retail therapy in fall 2024. Are you ready to see our top 10 warm sweaters for women?!
