Winter is a magical time of year for many. There's a general coziness that comes with snow and chillier weather. No one wants to be cold, of course, and that's why we have sweaters. Sweaters are both functional and fashionable, which means they absolutely deserve a place in our closets. Plus, they come in different forms. Some are oversized, some are more like blouses, and some can be worn instead of a coat. As we learned compiling this list, some can have cool patterns, too. We also noticed a trend of both eyelash textured sweaters, which are basically super slightly fuzzy sweaters. And of course, the sherpa trend from fall has not gone away. Sherpas are here to stay, and so we made sure to include those, too. 

What we're saying is that sweaters are an essential part of a person's closet and there's no limit to how many sweaters a person can have. In fact, sweaters are so important that somehow even ugly sweaters are now a staple. They're not exactly stylish, but for holiday parties, people wear them. But for other parts of the cooler months, we wanted to compile a list that features the latest styles. Again, the important part being that they serve a purpose, but can look good, too. So what does that mean exactly? It means that there are cardigans, oversized sweaters, lighter shirt-style sweaters, heavy styles, and turtleneck sweaters. And the best part? There's no limit to how many one can have. Winter tends to feel really long, after all.

Get a cup of hot cocoa ready and click through the styles we've unearthed. These sweaters are just right for going out on the town on a blustery night, heading to work on a cold day, or just cuddling up with a loved one on a snowy day.
