While the origin of the statement stripe sweater (say that 10 times really fast) is unclear, there are a gazillion takes on the trend this season, and I'm here for all of them. Some are more subtle than others, but if you're like me and find yourself starved for color in the winter, this is a pretty easy solution. From skinny rainbow stripes to a more bold, wide, colorblocking, there's something out there for everyone. (There are also softer, more neutral versions, but meh, this is all about bright color.) Here are my favorite statement stripe sweaters for fall.

It may still be raining (and even snowing) in most of the country, but everyone is clearly thinking spring, because this week's most-pinned image from my Outfit ideas for ageless style Pinterest board is totally transition-friendly. And I am not mad at that. It's a super cute wear-now, wear-later look—so let's re-create it!
