There are so many different sweater styles available online, so the market can seem a bit overwhelming at first. From cropped sweaters to oversize ones that promise maximum coziness, you'll have no problem finding a knit that suits your day-to-day outfit needs. On some days, all we want is to bury ourselves into a loose-fitting sweater, while on others, a turtleneck style seems more suitable to battle the chilly wind. Adding to that list of must-have knits for the cold-weather season, we're focusing in on all the best long-sweater outfits that are equal parts cozy, cool, and practical.
A long sweater falls below the hips, sometimes even landing at the knee. Lengths can vary, but one thing remains the same: The piece offers extra leg warmth, something we all need, especially when the frigid winter temperatures hit.
