As the fall continues to barrel us towards the darker months of winter (to be clear, we love the winter for the chance to wear our favorite jackets and coats, but the days are shorter), the weather reminds us that we need to upgrade our closets. While you can break out the heavier fabrics and start wearing your best lightweight jackets, one inescapable truth is that you must ensure you have a great sweater to get you through to spring.

While you do that, invest in the most high-quality and stylish options. There are a lot of them out there, but this one from Bugatchi is our favorite for the year. The chunky turtleneck will often be the statement piece, so it needs to speak. This one has a thunderous voice but somehow isn't overbearing.
