Today I will show you the 7 best sweaters for women that are classic and there is something here for everyone's budget that you can style into elegant fall sweater outfits.
Ralph Lauren Aran knit sweater
This beauty is one of my personal favorites to style in fall sweater outfits because it is chunky and warm and just everything you would want in a fall sweater. And the best thing is that it will last you for years. A fall sweater should be something that becomes part of your fall capsule wardrobe and you can grab it on those windy fall days to look chic and sophisticated. And this ivory color will match anything you want to pair it with. I love to pair this sweater with the best jeans that I found at Target. They come in khaki and off-white and are the best fall-winter jeans. You can also throw a cashmere scarf over the top and you are ready for any weather fall may throw at you.
Amazon Cable Knit Sweater
This is the more budget-friendly alternative from Amazon that will give you the same look for your fall sweater outfits as the Ralph Lauren sweater but at a wallet-friendly price. You get the same features, a beautiful cable knit pattern in a perfect off-white fall tone. This beautiful sweater can be thrown over your shoulder if you dare to wear a shirt dress in the fall or can be paired with your favorite jeans and an elegant silk scarf. This will be one of your wardrobe staples in no time for this fall season.

Ralph Lauren Cable-knit sweater
This is another beautiful and classic cable knit sweater you can style in your fall sweater outfits. This khaki tone is perfect for fall and will elevate any outfit you choose to wear it with. Khaki is a perfect fall color because it represents the change of colors in the foliage as it transitions from green to beautiful brown and orange autumnal hues. And one thing can be guaranteed; if you mimic nature in your outfits you will always look timeless and chic. This sweater will look super elegant with a pair of wide-legged jeans and black leather accessories. A pair of classic heeled boots and a structured bag will instantly elevate this classic fall sweater.
The same sweater also comes in navy blue. Navy blue is a perfect color for your fall sweater outfits. So if you're looking for something that you can wear for both seasons and something a bit darker then this one is perfect for you. I would even go as far as saying that this sweater is something you can wear all year round if you love it enough and just drape it over your shoulder for a more relaxed look in spring or summer. But for a nonchalant fall look just choose a classic pair of white or ivory jeans and add some leather accessories and you're ready.
amazon roll-neck sweater
Here is the budget-friendly alternative for the navy Ralph Lauren roll neck. Sadly it does not have the same cable knit pattern but it is extremely soft and has the exact same silhouette. I own this sweater in almost all colors and can confirm this is a perfect cheaper option for the Ralph Lauren cashmere roll neck as well. It is just 25$ and has lasted me for many years. This means you definitely get a lot of value from this turtleneck sweater. It is a definite wardrobe staple. This you can wear with an elegant silk scarf or layered underneath a tailored coat or jacket.
This sweater is available in a plethora of colorways. Including the same exact shade of khaki as the Ralph Lauren sweater above. This makes it the perfect multifunctional sweater. You can also layer this sweater under your gilet for a fall day in the garden. Or just wear it on its own. Another way would be layering it underneath a sleeveless dress for a classic autumnal look. Another great way to style this is underneath a denim jumpsuit for a chic farmer look. And did I already mention how soft this roll-neck is ?... It is honestly unbelievable. And the sweater barely pills making it very resilient for everyday wear.
Ralph Lauren Cashmere roll neck
If you have been searching for an elegant and simple cashmere sweater to wear for fall. Then Ralph Lauren has got you covered. Made from 100% Cashmere. This elegant piece will not only keep you warm but ensure you look as sophisticated as ever. And not only does it come in this beautiful tan color but is also insanely comfortable. Paired with off-white tailored trousers for a more elevated look. Or with ivory jeans for a more casual feel you will have the perfect and most classic fall sweater outfit.
Ralph Lauren leather trim sweater
This is what I would call a heritage knit because it looks like a more country-style sweater. You would wear out in the woods for hunting. The tan color and the patch on one side make this sweater not only unique but very elegant and classic looking. Paired with some classic fall boots makes it even more elegant. With skinny jeans, you have yourself a sophisticated and casual fall sweater outfit that you can style up with a silk scarf to elevate the more casual flair of the look.

Holland Cooper Heritage CREW NECK KNIT
You can find a very similar style at Holland Cooper for a more affordable price. The only difference is the knit is a bit chunkier. It is also thicker but still very elegant while being casual enough to wear on any fall day. This makes a perfect sweater to be layered over your favorite classic white blouse for a more elevated fall outfit. That is because of the crew neck. It leaves a perfect blueprint for a ruffled blouse or just a classic blouse to be layered underneath. Classic denim jeans with this sweater make the ultimate perfect fall ensemble.
Holland Cooper Kelsie PoINTELLE KNIT
This Beautiful sweater is perfect for a warmer fall day or if you are living in a warmer place. The scalloped detail and delicate design make this clearly a unique and special sweater. Even though this is a unique piece it is still a timeless one. The puff sleeves and overall silhouette will be so flattering. And not to mention how cozy and soft the fabric is. You will live in this knit all fall season long. Paired with tailored trousers and an elegant blazer it will make the perfect put-together and timeless fall outfit.
Amazon FIsherman cable knit
This Fisherman cable knit sweater from Amazon is another cheaper option for the cream Ralph Lauren cable knit. The silhouette is a bit more snug. Which will define your body nicely without looking vulgar. The fabric is also a bit thinner. But because it is soft and warm it makes a very nice fall sweater that can be worn every day. This beautiful fisherman sweater can either be the center of your fall outfit or it can be complimented by a cashmere scarf. Or a beautiful blazer. If you are looking for fall blazers: My blog post about 54 transitional fall items has a bunch of timeless blazers you can pair with this sweater.
Holland Cooper Fairisle knit
A fairisle knit has always been a classic and will always be a classic. This Fairisle knit sweater from Holland Cooper is something I wore last year almost every single day. And have been wearing every day this fall season so far. It is something you can slip into after coming home when you want to be cozy. But if someone randomly visits or you have to go outside and don't want to change this sweater will still make you look elevated and sophisticated without looking over the top. The beautiful green color on the fairisle knit is something that is classic, yet extraordinary as most fairisle knits are quite colorful. This also means it is more versatile as it will go with any neutral-colored basics.
Amazon Fairisle sweater
This Amazon find is the epitome of a classic Fairisle knit. its richness in color and perfect balance of autumnal neutral hues and pops of color is really what makes this piece truly special. And the best part is that it's not only soft and cozy but at an affordable price. But let's be honest... nobody would know that because it looks very expensive as if it could be real cashmere. (it certainly feels like real cashmere)Styled with your favorite pair of jeans and a monotone matching scarf you will look ready for Thanksgiving and the upcoming harvest season.
