I'm in need of a few new longer tops/sweaters! I've been looking and not finding a ton that I love. Just wondered if anyone had favorites they've found this year?

I love my smocked shoulder tunic from Boden:

I kept the green, but I really liked the gray color that is still available. It is so comfortable and flattering!

I bought this tunic from Boden with my $10 voucher and LOVE it:

It's very comfy, flattering, and great price! Be sure to go up a size if you decide to get it.

I have on that closes in the front and I wear it all the time with leggins and my Ugg Jillians or my Cole Haan moto boots.

I just got a Calvin Klein cowl neck sweater tunic from Costco for my sister ($23). She requested some medium-light weight sweaters for her upcoming birthday. I am 5'2" and the small size just covers my behind. They have grey, black, navy, and eggplant. If I were buying for myself, I think I could have gone with a medium for a more relaxed look. The small looked really fitted on me. There was a bit of rouching on the side near the hips, which I like.

I went to TJMaxx last weekend and they had a lot of Vince sweaters like the one you linked to. In my mind whenever I see the Vince open front sweaters, I refer to them as the "arivecchi Vince sweaters".

I just got this sweater in grey the other day. I'm usually a size small but the small was very snug so I had to size up.

I have been looking for similar items. I saw this in the garnet hill catalog and it looks like its on sale at Nordstrom. http://shop.nordstrom.com/S/eileen-fisher-stripe-merino-jersey-tunic-regular-petite/3529163?origin=related-3529163-null-1-3-FTR-RR&PageCategoryId=SR
I also saw a very similar one at Costco that was a rayon blend (so not the wool) but I think I might still try it out. :)
I love those Vince cardigans too.

I have the Costco one and just an FYI, it runs really big. I bought a size smaller than I usually buy and I should have gotten two sizes smaller.

Costco, who knew?!

Can I ask how much the Vince sweaters were at TJ max? Must check my local store!

I have this one is a few colors: http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/caslon-knit-tunic/3652268?origin=keywordsearch-personalizedsort&contextualcategoryid=0&fashionColor=Black%2F+Blue+Mazarine+Stripe&resultback=195&cm_sp=personalizedsort-_-searchresults-_-1_1_B

Simple, light, soft. This tunic, my Spendid leggings and a pair of my tall boots- feels like I'm wearing a sweatshirt and sweats but looks so much better. No brainer.

I always buy them on sale from piperlime or nordstrom because they are pricey, but I wear them a ton, so they are worth it to me. I also have some long splendid sweaters that I use as tunics.

They were originally marked around $300-$400, but the TJ Maxx price was about $150-$200.

The Calvin Klein cowl neck tunic says 100% cotton. The stripe one is 78/28 Rayon/Nylon.

I just got one very similar to this at Nordstrom Rack. It's actually Vince, and it's in the blue tones (though they also had in the black/grey tones). Anyway, it was last year's, I believe, and I got it for $119. It's cut very wide, and just long enough to cover both front and back (appropriate with leggings and boots). I think it will be really comfortable for this year.

For those of us who have long cardigans, any suggestions for long swingy "tshirts" to wear underneath the cardigans?
