A Few Chunky & Cozy Cardigans For Fall

Cardigans are the perfect outfit accessory for Fall weather.  They’re the cherry on top of an outfit, either acting as a statement piece or as a neutral to throw on when you’re cold.  I own a ton of them & keep one with me almost every single day, in every single outfit.

There isn’t a season that goes by where a cardigan doesn’t come in handy.  I use one when it’s 135 degrees outside because it’s usually -35 degrees inside.  I prefer to be temperature comfortable at all times.  You’ll notice I picked out a few different styles of cardigans, so you can mix & match them every day of the week with whatever outfit you’re wearing.  I also tried to recommend pieces I think you’ll be able to purchase this year & take into the years to come.  If the cardigan felt like it was going to fall apart or get “old” quickly – it didn’t make the cut.  Plan on bringing these babies to your FUTURE fall seasons.  Per usual, I tried on most of the recommendations or am confident enough in them to purchase myself.  That’s my vibe recently.

To preface my recommendations, as a natural rule of thumb, I always size way UP in my cardigans.  I like them to be oversized & comfortable.  You’ll notice most of the styles would go great over your layers.  Chunky, comfy, long & soft AF.

Perfect Cardigans For Fall Fashion

A Few Cardigans For Fall

Blush Pink Puffed Sleeve Cable Cardigan

I was excited to find this sweater because it’s almost exactly like one I already own, that’s sold out.  I always get compliments with people asking where I bought it.  I think it’s the belle sleeves that make the sweater appear ultra-cozy & comfortable.  I absolutely love the blush pink color, you can wear it like you would a neutral as it ends up matching almost everything in your closet.  This cardigan is super lightweight, v soft, & a perfect length.  I tried it on in 2 sizes UP so that it’s oversized, just the way I like it.

Target Universal Thread Open Neck Cardigan

Target for the win! (Isn’t that always the case?)  Topshop makes a similar cardigan that’s 4x the price, and in my opinion a little bit {less than} on the quality chart.  I love that the length comes easily down over your butt so you can pair it with leggings & not be too worried about your backside.  “Taupe” is a great neutral color to pair with any of your work or weekend cozy clothes.  And it’s really soft, not scratchy! Know what I mean?

Free People High Hopes Cardigan

Free People makes an excellent CHUNKY knit cardigan.  I bought one 2 years ago & still wear it once a week.  I even lost it once when I was traveling & came home to buy another one.  It’s that good.  Every season Free People comes out with a similar version, so I linked the chunky knit cardigan they have available this year.  The knit if very chunky, it hangs oversized, & it’s comfortable.  You could sleep in it like a big blanket.  I tried this on while I was in Nordstrom but was too lazy to take a picture.   I did confirm it’s really close to the same one I own, so I’m confident telling you this will become a staple cardigan!  I’m a fan of all the color’s, but would probably pick “wine” for Fall 🙂

American Eagle Eyelash Cropped Cardigan

One thing we must not forget – Cardigan’s are perfect to transition your summer clothes into the fall season & to bring back once spring rolls around.  This cardigan, in particular, would be so pretty to pair with your summer dresses or skirts.  You can totally stretch your summer clothes a little longer, I’ve been known to do this way too often.  Pair your cute summer dresses w an ultra-soft, beautiful deep blue cardigan like this one & you’ll look like you know what you’re doing!  This cardigan is again, ULTRA soft.  Like, omg.  It’s cropped & hangs in an oversized style so it’ll go great on top of a dress.

Striped Thermal Wedge Cardigan

Here’s a curveball for you.  I would say this sweater looks like something your grandpa would wear, but is that a bad thing?  You tell me.  For what it’s worth, this cardigan is really comfortable.  It has a more breathable, thermal fabric that won’t make you feel stuffy or like you’re going to overheat. Great quality & great colors for fall.  If you’re someone who wears black a lot, it would fit perfectly in your closet.  I think it would be FUN to wear this cardigan with a full face of makeup & lots of black, mix the grandpa vibes with glamour – that’s just me of course.

These sweaters are making me incredibly envious of people that experience cold weather.  I’m trying.  I’m trying not to complain.  I love the heat, I love hot weather.  I’m so happy that it’s been 100+ degrees for 20 days in Septemeber.  That’s fine.  I’m a wild spirit animal that loves the earth so much, I can love the heat too.  It’s all fine.

Did I convince you?

Because I have yet to convince myself.

Have a great weekend everyone!  I miss you.

Be thoughtful

Xx
