I've Looked Everywhere—These 14 Elevated But Cozy Sweaters Are Just Perfect

Let's be honest. January can be pretty miserable at times. Cold, often wet days and long, dark nights can make it hard to motivate ourselves to get out and do the things we usually enjoy—exercising, catching up with friends, and even going on your favorite coffee run. It takes a concerted effort to focus on what brings us joy in the winter months. Maybe that's an indulgent roast dinner by a fireplace or a Sunday afternoon in front of Netflix snuggling your dog. Me? I love a cozy sweater. Honestly, I can tell you now. Add a fluffy, chunky, or snuggly knit to your collection, and suddenly, all cold-weather activities become much more bearable. 

Fashion expert Alexa Chung showcased her coziest sweater on Instagram lately, and ever since, I've been keeping a mental list of the best styles I've come across, both online and on a couple of recent trips to Oxford Street. Of course, knitwear is hitting the stores thick and fast now that the clocks have gone back and the temperature has dropped significantly. Everyone from H&M to COS has some gorgeous styles I just want to wrap myself up in, and no doubt, you will too. 

Keep scrolling to see my edit of the 14 best cozy jumpers out there right now, from alpaca-blend to cashmere polo necks. They're all ready to be your new best friend this winter.
