Sweater weather has arrived. While there's nothing like curling up into a classic slouchy knit, we also love the idea of bringing a few fun and contemporary looks into rotation. From embellished sleeves and flirty forals, to bright hues and pops of lamé, we've got you covered. Scroll down for our favourite anything-but-boring sweaters you'll want to live in this fall.

Isola Pullover

Colourful faux fur is hot for fall and this fuzzy eyelash-knit is sure to turn heads all season long.

Sweater with Contrasting Sleeves

Statement sleeves continue to be huge with the fashion crowd this season - we love this bold knit version from Zara, with its long puffy sleeves in a bright pop of blue.

Stitchy Patch Embroidered Jumper

Another take on the floral trend, this lovely embroidered sweater from Topshop can be dressed up or down.

We love this ultra-feminine take on the essential cashmere sweater, and its unexpectedly pretty fringe lamé details.
