Coping with Sticker Shock

Be prepared for sticker shock if you crave a wool sweater. Wool sweaters are not cheap. With proper care, they can last for decades.

When you consider some of the pricier and more stylish sweaters-for-women, remember that you are making a wardrobe investment.

I've had one high-quality ski sweater since high school, for example.

Consider Cost Per Wearing

Take the long view. Factor how much the sweater will cost per wearing over time, rather than the price today.

A well-made woolen garment that flatters your body type, feels good, and pleases the eye will complement basic wardrobe items for decades to come.

Engineered fibers, such as acrylic and nylon, sometimes blended with wool, silk, or cotton, also make prices of sweaters-for-women more affordable in some instances.

The 3 Tips for Picking a Perfectly Stylish Sweater

When selecting a sweater as a wardrobe basic, consider
  • fit and style. Does it flatter your body type?

  • color. Does it flatter your complexion? Can you team the item with many other items in your closet? Is this a flavor-of-the-month color that will look outdated six months from now or a perennial favorite.

    A charcoal sweater is very au courant – as well a color that is eminently practical, perennially wearable, and mix-and-matchable.

  • details. Cable or fancy stitches, a beautiful pattern, a shawl collar, full or dolman sleeves, and unusual buttons or other touches will make your sweater an eye-catching focal point for years to come.
