It’s that tricky time of year again in New York City. The days start so briskly that I want to throw on a lightweight jacket during my morning work commute. By the time I run to grab lunch in the early afternoon, it’s super warm and sunny only for it to get chilly again when I’m heading home. If you’re experiencing similar weather, you’ve probably kicked off a quest to find the most comfortable lightweight fall cardigans and jackets.
16 Rich Mom Amazon Pieces to Look Like a Hamptons Millionaire
As a notorious over-sweater, I seldom wear jackets, but I can admit that wearing short-sleeve shirts in 60-degree weather is a recipe for disaster. Lightweight cardigans with open-front designs and breezy bomber jackets are options that I prefer. Luckily, Amazon has a host of fall cardigans and jackets that will keep you warm during your work commute but won’t make you overheat later on in the day. Some of them come in cute cropped silhouettes, while others are roomy and oversized. There are open-front, zip-down and button details to ensure easy and breezy wear. Check out our top picks ahead!
