When Reese WItherspoon isn’t influencing me with her book recommendations, she’s serving style inspo that’s polished and practical. After all, the actress ushered in 2025 on a high (fashion) note, pairing her chic-yet-cozy black cardigan with fancy sequined pants and pointed-toe pumps.
If anything, Witherspoon proved the classic layering piece is extremely versatile—you can easily dress it up with the right accessories. Not to mention, her black cardigan wasn’t the average everyday basic, as it featured chunky gold buttons that added extra oomph.
Since I’m all about mixing style with comfort, I found eight lookalikes of Witherspoon’s closet staple at Amazon, Zara, J.Crew, and more, starting at just $20.

Zesica Cable-Knit Cardigan
Amazon
Similar to Witherspoon’s classic black cardigan, this $20 Zesica find offers a slightly structured fit, a soft, stretchy fabric for all-day comfort, and chic ribbed trimmings on the neckline, hemline, and arm cuffs. Snag it in eight neutral colors, including a beige, light brown, gray, and more.
Halogen Embellished Button Cardigan
Nordstrom
Personally, I love the design details of Halogen’s button-down cardigan, including its look-at-me buttons that are floral-shaped and embellished with sparkly silver studs. Plus, the V-neck and tapered waistline gives it a more elevated finish.
Banana Republic Bell-Sleeve Cardigan
Banana Republic
Banana Republic’s black cardigan is both chic and cozy with its combination of dramatic bell sleeves, a V-neck, and slightly slouchy fit. Like Witherspoon, you can easily dress it up with showstopping pants or keep it simple with a pair of barrel-leg jeans and boots a là Jennifer Lopez.
J.Crew Cashmere Patch Pocket Cardigan Sweater
J.Crew
Cashmere sweaters are so luxe, anytime I see one on sale, I instantly grab it—like this J.Crew find. The layering piece features a blanket-soft finish, vintage-inspired patch pockets, ribbed cuffs, and subtle oversized fit that makes it a practical closet staple.
