Bundle Up, Baby

Searching for a great gift for the fashionista on your list? Look no further than these chic sweaters, which any girl in her right mind would be beyond pumped to receive for Christmas this year. Uh, we know we would at least!

Cardigan Sweaters

You can never go wrong with a cute cardi! This season, we’re really loving all the long, asymmetrical sweater cardigans that tie in the front and feature a bold print. A classic brown, black, beige or cream cardi is also a smart idea for the modern lady with traditional style.

Thin Knit Sweaters

A thin knit sweater makes the perfect present, particularly if the gal you’re shopping for lives in a sunny city like LA. Even if she doesn’t, however, there’s no need to fret; she can always use it as a layering piece. Opt for knits in this season’s chicest shades, such as royal blue, oxblood, burnt orange or eggplant.

Oversized Sweaters

They’re comfy, they’re cozy and one of the best ways to keep her warm this winter while still staying on trend. Oversized sweaters do tend to be a bit bulkier and heavier though, so before investing in a gift like this, you’ll want to make sure your intended recipient is a mini skirt and tights (or skinny jeans) wearing kind of girl.

Sequin Sweaters

Forget the corny Christmas sweater your sister or BFF can only rock during December. Instead, wrap her up something glitzy and glamorous she can sport throughout the winter, like a sequin sweater! Festive without being too festive, you can find sequin sweaters that are completely covered in bling or those that have just a hint of sparkle. Use your judgment to purchase the right one for her.

Faux Fur Trimmed Sweaters

Imagine the look on your mom’s face when she unwraps an irresistibly soft wool sweater with a detachable (and fashionable!) faux fur collar. She’s been talking about how she wants to update her wardrobe for years; now’s your chance to help her do exactly that and with a present that’s twice as fun.

Nordic Sweaters

Hop on the Nordic trend train this winter, and surprise a lucky lady in your life with a very holiday appropriate and in vogue Fair Isle knit sweater. She doesn’t have to be a ski bunny or mountain woman to appreciate this vintage print, as everyone’s rocking it these days!
