Cotton Sweater

Cotton sweaters breathe better than synthetics. They keep you cool in fall and warm in spring. Try the Women's Striped Knitted V-neck Cotton Striped Sweater in Khaki ($34) for a classic shape that pairs with jeans. The Loose Round Neck Single Breasted Cardigan in Olive ($46.21) works as a light jacket over a tank top.

Go for the Sleeveless Knitted Crop Sweater in Black ($21.99) if you want a summer vest look. The Plus Size Women's Autumn Casual Multicolor Sweet Embroidery Loose Slim Sweater in White ($39.95) gives you room to move without looking baggy. Cotton shrinks in hot water, so wash on cold and lay flat to dry.

Style a cotton cardigan over a plain tee with straight-leg pants. For a softer look, tuck a Women's Solid Color Hooded Double-sided Sweater in Dark Gray ($30.95) into high-waisted jeans. The Letter Round Neck Christmas Loose Long Sleeve Sweater in Sand ($24.99) adds a playful touch to casual outfits.

Wash cotton sweaters inside out in cold water. Skip the dryer and lay them flat on a towel. Store them folded on a shelf, not on hangers, to keep the shape.
