Fall and winter aren't my favorite seasons, and I've found that both are more fun when I treat myself to a few new versatile sweaters. My goal is always to find pieces that have an ideal layering weight -- not too heavy, not too thin -- and I think I've found my next sweater purchase thanks to this Amazon best-seller that's under $20.
Because I work from home, I'm drawn to sweaters with relaxed fits, and the Anrabess sweater checks that box. It's made from a comfy combination of 60 percent polyester, 35 percent rayon, and 5 percent elastane for a feel that's lightweight but still warm. The best news is that this style is on sale starting at $17.
"I love it so much, I have ordered multiple colors," wrote one five-star reviewer who highlighted that the weight of the sweater offers "just the right amount of warmth without being too warm," and also suggested pairing it with a jacket or vest for added styling. "I love the softness and how light the fabric is; I just ordered two more in different colors," added another shopper.
Sweaters that go with anything are workhorses in almost every closet, including mine, and the Anrabess pull-on, V-neck style with side split-hems is one you can wear with leggings just as easily as with jeans. Not to mention, the layer-friendly sweater can be worn under a denim jacket or even a winter puffer without feeling restricting. Plus, it's available in 21 colors and striped patterns in sizes S to XXL, so you're sure to find an option to match your aesthetic.
"This is the softest sweater, and the fact that the color and fit are excellent is an added bonus," wrote one reviewer. A different shopper, who notes that the sweater looks cute with skirts, leggings, and jeans, said that it's "very soft and cozy" with a "true-to-size" fit."
No matter which color or pattern you choose, you're sure to wear the Anrabess lightweight sweater on repeat all season long. In fact, you might want to pick up more than one, or keep scrolling below for even more comfy sweaters to help you make it through winter in style.
