You can cut down on clutter in your closets when you invest in transitional pieces, meaning items you can wear from one season to the next. That’s why we were happy to find the iWollence Waffle Knit Sweater—one of the highest-rated cardigans on Amazon, and it’s only $27. It’s lightweight and great for when you’re just not sure what the weather will bring, like a hot, sunny day paired with a breezy, cool night.
It’s a popular fashion staple too. The sweater has earned a perfect five-star rating from more than 25,000 Amazon reviewers — many of whom admit to buying more than one.
Call it a sweater, call it a cardigan, call it a henley, call it a blouse — we call it your next summer-into-fall standby.
The tie-knot sweater is delightfully baggy (especially if you order one size up), so it’s perfect for lazy weekends or long travel days. The textured waffle knit fabric gives it a little dimension and makes it snag-free, so no need to worry if you toss it in the back of your car or roll it up in a suitcase. It’s cute and casual, and you’ll have a hard time choosing just one color, especially since it comes in 15 shades.
Amazon shoppers especially love how versatile it is and that you can wear it year-round.
“It’s super breathable so even though it’s long-sleeved, I have been wearing through the summer,” said one shopper. “Looks equally cute with leggings as it does with a skirt. It’s very soft and falls nicely. I love versatile pieces like this.”
“Buy more than one color,” advised one impressed customer. “When you get this shirt home, you’ll be sorry you didn’t order multiple colors. It will be your favorite go-to transitional top. It’s lightweight for spring and summer but can definitely be layered for fall and winter.”
“Loved it so much that I bought it twice,” added another five-star reviewer. “This top is casual and business all at once. I know it looks like a winter top but it’s very versatile because it’s not too thick. It’s still like new and I’ve washed it a few times. I really adore this top and it fits magically. It makes me feel great and I get lots of compliments.”
Shoppers also can’t stop raving about how flattering it is. The top is a little bit longer in the back, and you can shorten it as much as you want or tighten it as much as you want, depending on how tight you tie it in the front.
“I absolutely love how flattering this shirt is,” wrote one reviewer. “I’ve recently put on some pounds and this shirt hides it very well. I love how you can tie the shirt at different lengths if you choose and how the V-neck shows off your collar bone.”
“This shirt is extremely cute and very flattering. I believe I own it in four or five colors now,” said another. “I got two to start, but I could not stop thinking about how much I loved wearing them so I bought more. The colors last well and they don’t shrink in the wash. I like a loose fit and it was perfect for me.”
Needless to say, if you’re looking for a comfortable, yet flattering top you can wear season-to-season (and who isn’t?), the iWollence Waffle Knit is a solid bet. Now, which color will you start with?
This Oatmeal color would look great with denim shorts and sandals in the summer or brown boots and jeans in the fall.
