Sweater:  Express(*on sale for for under $36)

I'm pretty sure your Fall is so much better than mine

Lemme guess, it's cold where you are. . .   Annnnnnd wearing jackets and cozy sweaters have become a necessity in the game of staying warm.  If this is true, than consider me officially jealous of your Fall weather.

Here in H-town, our temps have yet to drop and stay below 60°.  Ugh!  So what's a girl to do in the meantime?  Easy, I fake it until I make it and wear my "Fall" sweaters and jackets anyway.  I recently scooped up this must have basic cozy sweater in a deep red and this convertible cable knit cowl neck or off-the-shoulder sweater in off-white all from Express.

In anticipation of cold temps to come, I've put together a Sweater Guide featuring some of my favorite cozy sweaters ranging from must have wardrobe basics and cardigans to sweaters with the most interesting details.
