Promising review: “I ordered a small in the white version of this sweater, and holy cow! I intend to buy this in black as well, so impressed.

Dress it up or down. You won’t regret the purchase. Word of caution: Make sure to gather it up on bathroom breaks and in the car.” —e5d5r5

Promising review: “I LOVE this sweater so much! It’s great for layering, and I get compliments every time I wear it. When buttoned, it is very put together, and you don’t need other accessories to create just the right look. It’s not too heavy or too thin, and it looks just right with ripped jeans, slacks, or a skirt. It’s also soft enough to wear all day.” —LexaJ23
Get it from Amazon for $29.99 (available in sizes S–XXL and six colors).
18. A chunky turtleneck because sometimes all you want during the fall is a chunky AF sweater to cuddle up inside. Seriously, this one is just a classic.
Reviewers suggest sizing down if you prefer a more fitted look rather than the baggier style.
Promising review: “I am obsessed with this! It’s the perfect fall/winter cozy oversized cable knit sweater. Perfect length for high or mid-waisted jeans and true to size. I normally wear an 8 but went one size up for a looser fit… the medium would have been perfect for a more fitted look. The material is SO soft. Can’t wait to wear this over the holidays. Looks and feels like an expensive designer one!” —Bee Dav
