Knitpicky

I've been talking a lot about transitions: making your summer staples equally wearable in colder weather. It's already halfway through October, meaning that it's time to start thinking more about those normal fall and winter purchases. Sure, it's fun to shop the sales and buy discounted warm-weather merchandise, but sometimes it's better to use your money on something more practical. That's why I've already started pulling out the sweaters, and why you should too! I've had a lot of fun browsing through summer discounts - let's be honest here - but when I go shopping it's sweaters that I focus on. Comfortable, cozy, and warm, these garments are perfect for the temperatures we're all awaiting.
Below is my guide to the season's most colorful knits, along with tips on stylish ways to wear them. I personally selected each of these items after browsing through a variety of websites, trying to find quality items that are also reasonably affordable and in a varied color palette. Please enjoy.

Topshop, $140

This cable sweater puts a twist on the classic with a rosy pinkish-red hue. 

Pair it with jeans, riding boots, and a statement necklace for a casual but put-together look.

Topshop, $72

This perfectly oversized sweater will quickly become one of your favorite pieces, as it has for me (this is one of my recent Topshop purchases).

Contrast the bagginess of the sweater with printed leggings and short boots. Accessorize with piles of bangles: neutral if your leggings are colorful, colorful if your leggings are neutral.

ASOS, about $79

This color palette is rich, beautiful, and perfectly feminine. The details are unique and will make this sweater stand out in your knitwear collection.

Wear yours with blue jeans (any shape), heeled booties, and throw a silky kimono on top. (Don't know what I'm talking about? Try searching "kimono" on Topshop's website.)

ASOS, about $61

The brilliant hue of this sweater becomes all the more exciting with an unusual back.

Try wearing this sweater with black velvet pants or leggings for an interesting combination of textures. Accessorize with neutral statement cuffs and flats. 

Zara, $59.90

This sophisticated green knit will go with practically anything.

For a hip, modern look, wear yours over a sheer black maxi skirt with heeled booties. Layer necklaces of different lengths and choose a chunky ring that goes well - but doesn't match perfectly - with the other jewelry.
