I struggle to get off the couch and wear anything buta sweatshirtin the winter, but when duty calls, I need something a little more stylish to wear to lunches, work, and more.

Oprah Winfrey’s been wearing the best comfy sweatshirt alternative — anoversized turtleneck— and I’m inspired to add multiple to my closet now. In not one but two different Instagram posts fromThe Oprah Podcast, the host wore oversized turtlenecks, one in red and one in beige. She wore them both with jogger-style pants, and I think it’s safe to say that we have a new winter uniform.

Oprah’s not the only star who’s been wearing turtlenecks —Gwyneth Paltrow,Katie Holmes, and Cameron Diazhave all been spotted in the style. With extra fabric at the neck, the sweater helps protect your upper body from the elements. And the oversized silhouette Oprah has been rocking is so easy to layer.

If you want to try out this comfortable and elegant style, consider these similar turtleneck sweaters from Nordstrom, Everlane, and Banana Republic below.

Rule number one of streamlining your winter closet — start with a timeless outfit starter, also known as the black turtleneck. This Everlane style is on sale for half off right now. It’s made with 100 percent cashmere, and you can snag it in sizes XXS through XXL. I appreciate its boxy silhouette which really emphasizes the oversized design.

Already have an everyday black sweater? Try something bolder like this red sweater reminiscent of Oprah’s. It has a roomy silhouette that layers well over skirts, jeans, and more. The ribbed hem and cuffs enhance the style to dress it up, and the bold red color is guaranteed to turn heads (you can get it in black, gray, camel, and a striped pattern, too).
