I am obsessed with all things cozy, from candles and tea to string lights and Gilmore Girls. Fall fashion is no exception; it’s full of chunky, knit top layers just waiting to be thrown over turtlenecks and styled with slouchy socks. And Blake Lively just lived my snuggly dreams by stepping out in a toasty warm cardigan.

Attending a hangout with perhaps some of the coolest people in the entertainment industry (think: Taylor Swift, Hugh Jackman, Ryan Reynolds, and Shawn Levy), Lively wore a light gray, button-front sweater. The top layer included tortoise-shell buttons, a ribbed hemline, and a sleek lapel collar. She styled it with reflective sunglasses, a blue satchel, casual gray T-shirt, wide-leg jeans, and the same platform Uggs she wore just two days prior. But there are tons of other ways to style Lively-inspired cardigans.

Faherty offers a great option complete with a V-neck, two-toned buttons, and ribbed detailing. Throw it over a lace-trim long sleeve, slip on some denim, and add a pair of Birkenstock clogs for a laid-back ensemble. Madewell’s relaxed, wool-blend cardigan will look great layered on top of an A-line dress for a preppy style. Include some Mary Jane shoes and you’re good to go. There isn’t a wrong way to piece together an outfit when it comes to cardigans. They’re versatile and ageless, especially when you’re wearing a neutral color like Lively’s.

Cardigans don’t only look good, but they’re practical, too. Fall weather is constantly changing; one day it’s 55 degrees and the next we’re in the 70s. Thankfully, knit sweaters offer a simple solution to fluctuating temperatures. Consider a thick, cable-knit option like this BP. find, which features a roomy fit and unique texture. Carry it in your bag just in case it gets a bit chillier than expected. Button it up for extra warmth, or leave it open to get a cool breeze. If you like the design of the former but prefer something a bit lighter, then Reformation’s Giusta cashmere cardigan may be for you. Whether your choice sweater is the star of the show or a backup plan, you’re sure to be comfy and warm all season long.

But perhaps the best thing about top layers like Lively’s is their wide range of prices. There’s something for everyone, and you can find even more Lively-inspired cardigans, starting at $27.
