4 Cute Sweater Trends You’re Going to Want to Live in This Winter

Published by

Sweater weather is upon us and it’s time to start cozying up in the warmest and chicest sweaters for winter. Since we’ve been wearing loungewear and workout clothes for quite some time now, you might be ready to step up your style in sweaters that are just as comfy as your favorite tie-dye sweatshirt.

Stepping it up doesn’t mean you need to lose the element of comfort. From buttery soft fabrics to oversized styles that feel like you’re wrapped in a blanket, you can still rock these pretty knits with leggings or your favorite jeans.

Even with the holidays being a little bit more casual this year, you’ll still want to dress up. The below sweaters are perfect to pair with a skirt or stylish vegan leather pants so you can still look cute and cozy, without having to put too much effort into your look. Check out our favorite winter sweater trends below and add a few new knits to your wardrobe!

Not Your Grandma’s Cardigan

Cardigans are one of the biggest sweater trends we’re loving this season. They’re extremely versatile and always look effortlessly chic. You can wear a cardigan buttoned up, open with a satin cami underneath, or think outside the box and rock it backward with the buttons in the back! A small tuck into your pants and a cardigan instantly feels elevated.

Shop the Look: Cozy Desires Beige Knit Balloon Sleeve Cardigan Sweater, Bonjour to You Ivory Eyelash Knit Cardigan Sweater, Middleton Forest Green Long Cardigan Sweater

Pump Up the Volume

Puff sleeves have been trending for a few seasons now, and they’re definitely not going away anytime soon. Basic knits feel completely elevated with voluminous sleeves. The key to not looking like the Michelin man is keeping the body somewhat fitted. Statement sleeve sweaters look great tucked into jeans, wide-leg pants, or even a cute mini skirt with tights.

Shop the Look: Subtle Drama Rust Brown Ribbed Balloon Sleeve Sweater Top, Petal Warmed Up Beige Flower Stitch Sweater, Totally Chill Black Ribbed Balloon Sleeve Sweater

Apres Chic

No need to dish out money on a lift ticket or trek all the way to the slopes for major apres ski vibes. A fair isle sweater or color block knit will instantly put you in the mood for a toasty fire and hot toddy.

Shop the Look: Warm Harvest Heather Grey Multi Print Knit Sweater, Nice and Sweet Cream Multi Color Block Knit Sweater, Fair Isle Tan Multi Knit Three-Quarter Sleeve Sweater

Not-So-Basic Turtleneck

We love a classic turtleneck, but the oversized version is probably one of our favorite styles for winter. If you ever wanted to create a winter uniform for yourself, we suggest starting here. You can easily play up this style with statement earrings or a bold jacket.

Shop the Look: Truly Perfect Day Light Green Knit Turtleneck Oversized Sweater, Conway Grey Oversized Knit Turtleneck Sweater, Made My Day Beige Chunky Knit Turtleneck Sweater
