Cardigans Are My Secret Weapon Every Fall—I Love These 26 Under-$100 Picks

When it comes to a cardigan, I'm going to buy it. My collection is up to a whopping 15—an unfathomable number given how tiny my closet is in my shoebox-style NYC apartment. Cardigans are my bread and butter at this point. Not only are they ultra cozy for fashionable homebodies, but they're also effortlessly chic if styled right—often as simply as possible. I can't tell you how many times I've worn an outfit that consists of a white T-shirt, jeans, and a statement cardigan, only to receive an endless stream of compliments from friends and family.
Now that fall is here, cardigan season is in full effect. For days when a coat is simply too heavy, I'll opt for a cardigan instead. From wool-blend sweaters to fuzzy printed knits, there's a style for every personality and budget. I'll celebrate that.
Ahead are 26 cardigans I've bookmarked to add to my collection while keeping my wallet happy. Honestly, I'm shocked at how chic some of these look for being well under $100. Happy shopping.

This classic H&M pick is back in stock in all sizes. Trust me—it'll sell out fast.

If you're looking for a sweet detail for your cardigan, this Peter Pan collar just might do the trick.

The curved waist on this cardi makes it feel 10 times more elevated than most.

After seeing Tibi play with eggplant in its latest runway collection, I'd be shocked if this similar jewel-toned short-sleeve cardigan doesn't sell out by October 1.

The two-toned details on this find make it feel more akin to Chanel couture than anything else.

This cardigan would look so good with a pair of black slacks and loafers for a day at the office.

Extra-large pockets to hold all of your seasonally appropriate pumpkin-flavored snacks.

The buttons on this cardigan are the most precious things I've seen all week.

If your goal in life is to look like a Sandy Liang runway model, look no further than this dreamy bubblegum option.
