If you’ve been counting down the days until sweater weather since the first day of summer, then you’re in luck: It’s finally here!
With temperatures on the East Coast reaching daily highs of 60ºF or less, choosing which cozy knit to wear is the toughest decision we have to make before breakfast. And in addition to the collection of cardigans we’ve amassed over the years, there are an array of new designs that have crossed our radar recently.
So we did what any professional shopper would do and handpicked the very best cardigans from two of our favorite affordable retailers, H&M and Zara. From varsity-inspired designs to pretty patterns, fuzzy fabrics, and fabulous buttons, there’s certainly a cardigan or two ahead with your name on it. But don’t debate too long—we have a feeling these on-trend styles will sell out sooner than you can say “sweater weather.”
