La Ligne’s iconic Marin sweater has earned a cult following for its classic stripe design, high-quality materials, excellent fit, and attention to detail. It’s effortlessly stylish, but at the $350 price tag, it’s not the most budget-friendly option. The good news? You don’t have to spend a fortune to achieve the same look. I found a great alternative that captures the essence of the original without the steep price tag.

This sweater’s appeal lies in its classic design. The rainbow stripes add personality to any outfit, making it an easy statement piece. An affordable option to get the look for less is this sweater. It’s priced under $40 and mirrors the La Linge version with a similar color scheme and relaxed fit. Note the splurge option is cashmere, and the save option is an acrylic/rayon blend. It’s a substantial knit that pairs seamlessly with a range of outfits.

How to Wear Your Striped Sweater

Here’s the storyboard I created when I first came across the affordable option. To get the look for less, I styled the striped sweater with jeans and booties for an elevated casual look. For a more laid-back look, swap the booties for sneakers. Another styling option would be to wear over a button-up shirt with trousers and loafers for a refined look. Or, belt the sweater and pair it with a midi skirt and tall boots.

That wraps up how to get the look for less! If you love the bold, cheerful aesthetic of the La Ligne Marin Sweater but prefer a more budget-conscious option, the Amazon sweater is an excellent choice. Would you splurge on the original or go for the save? Let me know in the comments!
