Selena Gomez's Practical Sweater Had This Elevated, Oprah-Worn Detail

I’m just going to come out and say it—February is a hard month to shop and dress for. Through December and January, nothing delighted me more than stocking up on chunky knits, wool coats, and slush-proof boots. And while I still love these styles, I’m now turning my attention to everyday staples that I can wear come spring. That’s why I’m taking a fashion cue from Selena Gomez and shopping for long-sleeve turtlenecks, a.k.a. the perfect transitional piece.

Last week, the Rare Beauty founder paired her turtleneck with matching wide-leg trousers and pointed heels, creating a sleek, all-black ensemble. Her look reminded me that one, you can never go wrong with monochrome, and two, turtlenecks are the easiest way to look chic. She’s not the only fan, either—Oprah Winfrey has also been sporting turtlenecks this season. Below, you can find six lookalikes for both stars’ styles, starting at just $19 on Amazon.

Gomez opted for a tight-fitting turtleneck, which she layered under a structured blazer. And while I usually wear T-shirts or tanks under my blazers, having a slightly warmer base like this one is definitely preferable for those late winter, early spring days. To recreate her corporate-lite ‘fit, grab this ribbed thermal top, now available for just $24. The classic basic is made of stretchy, breathable material that’s, according to one shopper, “incredibly comfortable.”

It’s still winter for another month, so it’s not a bad idea to grab some thicker turtlenecks as well. Just like the ribbed style Winfrey wore, this split-hem pullover is sure to keep you cozy during these frigid February weeks. But if you prefer a turtleneck that, like Winfrey’s, is more cropped, take a look at this adorable fleece sweater, which also comes in other transitional shades like an army green and light brown.

I’ve been buying way too many spring jackets lately, only to discover it’s too cold to wear them. Now, I’m realizing that my mistake was trying to wear them with T-shirts, when wearing a long-sleeve turtleneck underneath would’ve solved all my styling problems. As Gomez proved, this style is the base that makes every outfit look better. While I can definitely see myself wearing her turtleneck-and-trousers combo to work, I can also picture myself dressing this style down with baggy jeans and a collared shacket. For a sweater-on-sweater moment, popping a cardigan on top would look just as great, too.

If you’re on the hunt for a transitional piece you can reach for non-stop, then look no further than a stylish turtleneck. Head to Amazon to snag one of your own, and browse through more options, below.
