I am in search of attractive, non-itchy, cozy sweaters and wraps, preferably hip length or longer. Casual is fine, workplace appropriate is better. What have you found this Fall/winter that you are loving (or hoping to get)?

I once owned a chunky (but not heavy) sweater with an asymmetrical collar in charcoal that I continue to look to replace. It was a gift from MIL on a trip to France, and I left it on an airplane several years ago. :(

I haven't found anything at Boden that I like this season; took a quick look at BR and there were a few potentially nice sweaters. But I know you guys have a wider range of places you guys shop, so please post your recommendations! With links would be great. Thanks!

ETA I like slightly longer, less fitted sweaters (I get overheated/can't breathe if they are too fitted) - love this Eileen Fisher sweater, but not the price!

Citymama, I'm on the hunt for the same type of sweater. I LOVE the one that you linked to but I'm looking for something in the price range of $50 or less. I can't find anything! I've been searching for the last few weeks. I order a few ON sweaters yesterday, nothing that I really loved (or that really fits what I'm looking for) but they were cheap so I figured they're worth a shot.

Do you have a Nordstrom Rack near you? There were so many amazing sweaters there when I went on Saturday. A TON! Piperlime has a bunch too. I'll link some I bought in a bit...

I just got these two sweaters from Anthropologie. I especially love the chevron one. It is amazing. I don't like how it is styled in the main pic, but if you look at the other pictures you will see how it looks tied.

I recently found this exact same sweater/sweatshirt at TJMaxx for $50, and it is heavenly! Definitely casual, but I could live in it. It's so soft and not at all like the "sweatshirts of the 80's". I think it's been that long since I owned one, but I adore this one. I have some cobalt blue skinnies it looks awesome with; would look good with mustard or maroon, too.

I recently got this one from Nordstrom in Ivory, but it's sold out now. Saw it on Pinterest Told Me To. I love it! During the sale it was $28.xx so I love it even more. ;)

I got this Lucky Brand from Nordstrom a few weeks ago and really like it (and it's on sale). I can't really wear it to work, but I don't know if you need full-on business attire or business casual. I think you could definitely wear this to a business casual office.

I have a couple of Vera Wang sweaters from Kohls, and love them. One is the asymmetrical one-

Thank you all - great suggestions and links! Bigdog, I feel the same way about the price of that Eileen Fisher sweater. Cuca, I love those Anthro sweaters - my concern with Anthro is always the itch factor; I have had to return every sweater I have bought there because of unbearable itchiness. Are these ones soft? Boolady, I will check out those Nordstrom options. Yay!

While browsing the Nordstrom sale, I noticed several cute sweater tunics made by their store brand, Caslon. I haven't owned anything by that brand before, but this sweater tunic (http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/caslon-knit-tunic-regular-petite/3191433?origin=keywordsearch-personalizedsort&contextualcategoryid=60139127&fashionColor=Pink%2F+Heather+Grey+Stripe&resultback=190&cm_sp=personalizedsort-_-searchresults-_-1_1_C) looked pretty cute. Any one have it? It looks like it's pretty popular...

I don't have any of those, but it looks pretty cute... I like the striped versions better than the solids; look a little classier to me. :)
I was just going to echo PP to try TJMaxx/ Marshalls/ Homegoods, as that's where I've gotten a lot of sweaters I've liked in the past. Also AT Loft and Nordstrom. I have to try everything in store to get the best idea of what looks & feels good, but I've had good luck with the asymetrical wrap and another sweater that was mentioned here during their Anniversary Sale (at Nordstrom).

I have these two from Splendid that I love. Super soft and cozy. I have both in multiple colors.

I also have the tunic that citymama posted. It's ok but nothing special.

I love that first one! Splendid fits me really well, so I might get it.

Sorry, I just saw this. They are not super soft, I don't find them itchy, but I think if you are sensitive to it, you might.

I just got this one in the mail from ON and I really like it. It's soft and not super heavy. I got it in black but I'm tempted now to also order it in grey.

I just ordered this from HA. It looks promising so we'll see:) I also have trouble finding longer sweaters, and I like/want/need LENGTH in the torso and sleeves!

In the past I've had success with buying TALL sizes from BR and Gap and I have a couple of long sweaters that I love from there.

I have Caslon tops, that are non-sweaters that I got from nordtroms that I adore. They are extremely comfortable and they are a more affordable like that Nordstrom carries.

On my want list is this Anthropologie poncho /pullover (http://www.anthropologie.com/anthro/pdp/detail.jsp?&navAction=jump&id=4114309215186&color=059&cm_mmc=Criteo-_-Remarketing-_-CLOTHESSWEATERS-_-4114309215186#/) - I will wait till it's on sale, and also try it on in store since their fabrics are frequently too itchy for me. Anyone have it?

I got some really cute cardigans that were featured on Pinterest Told Me To blog. One is the waterfall cardigan. I got one black and one grey. Very cute and flattering. I also got another one, but can't remember the name. Schaefer had a segment on cardigans from Loft...that's where mine came from. Great prices too! :)

Yes, I bought this recently and it is great! I ordered it in a medium and small, and kept the small. I thought it might run tight, but it doesn't at all - it's really flattering and nice. I wore it to a Thanksgiving party with tight black jeans and tall boots and got lots of compliments (I got the tan and black, but also love the blue and grey).
