This will definitely be your favorite cardigan for the month of October.

I love the slightly 1990s feel of this Madewell cardigan. The buttons are such a pretty detail and the ribbed texture makes this basic more interesting.
This will look great with jeans and some boots. It’s great for wearing to class and has such an elegant aesthetic.
J.Crew Factory Cotton Caryn Cardigan
Every girl needs a classic cardigan. It’s that piece that matches with everything and works for every occasion (especially if you’re job-hunting!).
J.Crew has mastered the art of the classic cardi and has a variety of them in various cuts and colors. Navy is not only a perfect color for fall, but you can easily rock it all year long!
Cable Knit Button-Front Crop Top
I love all things cable knit because it’s a classic texture that is both elegant and trendy. This fall cardigan is great because it has all the components of a timeless piece but also has a modern cut.
Looking for something to wear to a party or dinner with friends or while studying in the library? Well, look no further.

Hooded cardigans? Yes, please!
Navy and white is a beautiful combination and I love the stripes and length of this one. This is another cozy piece you could throw over some basics to make your outfit that much cooler.
UO Rochelle Fuzzy Cropped Cardigan
With colder days coming up, I’m gravitating towards fuzzy textures that just look warm. This cropped cardi fits the bill.
This cardigan has stunning buttons, a great cut and will look great with any outfit. Plus, it’ll help you get in the Christmas mood which is one of the best parts of the months ahead!
Front Striped V-Neck Cardigan
This cardigan is so ’90s. It’s comfortable, classic and can easily be dressed up or down. The v-neck shape is stunning and I love the white stripes.
The best part is, the dark green color is perfect for fall and will fit right in with your wardrobe.
Marled Draped Open Front Pocket Cardigan
Our final fall cardigan has such a stunning and rustic vibe. It screams country girl and is beyond comfortable.
I LOVE cardigans with pockets! So many gorgeous pieces have no place to keep your phone or keys. But pieces with pockets are a win-win!
