9 Fall-Friendly Thin Sweaters Under $100

Now’s the perfect time to wear a thin sweater under a blazer.

Getting dressed for work shouldn’t be a bore. Welcome to Business Casual— here to make your weekdays easier.

The moment the temperature dips below 70 in the fall, everyone’s eager to declare it sweater weather. But not all knits are created equal — you don’t need to bust out that chunky turtleneck when it’s barely chilly. For these temperate days, a thin sweater is your best friend. Treat them like a dressier, work-friendly version of your favorite white T-shirt and tuck it into a midi skirt or slip it under a blazer. Then when it legitimately gets cold, you can use it as a base layer under warmer clothes. With plenty of options under $100, you can buy a few and rotate them throughout the week, making getting dressed in the morning that much quicker. Scroll ahead to shop our favorites.

Buy This in Multiples

Get this in black, white, blue, and a fun color like purple or pink, and you have your entire week’s worth of tops ready to go.

If You Want Cheap Cashmere

The bright red lines are sportier than your average black-and-white top but just as versatile.

Don’t want to always wear black now that it’s chilly? Get this sweater in cheerful shades like cobalt blue,, coral pink, and icy lavender.
