The Best Halloween Sweaters For Spooky Season

The first pumpkin products have hit the shelves, which means it’s officially spooky season. And while Halloween shirts are great, Halloween sweaters are better.

First of all, we’ve waited all summer for this chilly season and we’re not about to waste it. Secondly, it’s a lot easier to justify wearing a sweater more than once without washing it.

There is a short but sweet moment when these festive bundles of joy really shine. It’s right after the time of year when wearing long sleeves is masochistic, and just before they’ll be covered by puffy coats.

So use this as an excuse to snag a new Halloween sweatshirt or sweater before it’s too late! Or wear them year round. We love a fashion rule breaker.

3. Cat and Moon Sweater, $39.99

There’s a lot going on in this Halloween sweater. Between the goth creamsicle color scheme, a Pinocchio-inspired moon, cats, bats, and the stars reminding you of a job well done on an elementary school math test, we’re overwhelmed. And that’s just the way we like it.
