Martha Stewart Keeps Wearing Collared Sweaters, and Lookalikes Start at $24

Nothing goes better with a home-cooked meal than a collared sweater — according to Martha Stewart, that is. 

The entertaining expert whipped up some delicious-looking dishes in two recent Instagram videos for her “Martha Cooks” series — but as unbelievable as it may sound, we only had eyes for her sweaters. Stewart first wore a beige collared cardigan with a coordinating tee while she made fried chicken sandwiches and other delicacies. A week later, she teamed up with Jacques Pepin to make four mouth-watering dishes in an oversized, light green collared sweater with a half-zip detail.

Cozy sweaters are a closet essential once the temperatures start to drop, and collars lend them a sophisticated touch that’s part elegant, part preppy. This stylish yet comfy option is the perfect top layer for everything from jeans and leggings to midi skirts. It’s no surprise that other celebs like Jennifer Garner, Laura Dern, and Katie Holmes have all put their stamps on the trend, too. 

If you want to add a few collared sweaters to your fall wardrobe like Stewart, browse through similar styles on Amazon from Karl Lagerfeld, Sweaty Betty, Pistola Denim, and more brands starting at just $24.
