We love our high-fashion finds — avant-garde stunners and couture creations fresh off the runway — but when it comes down to it, there’s nothing like relaxing in a cozy hoodie, and we just found the softest, cutest and most practical hoodie around!

That hoodie happens to be the Zella Go To Zip Hoodie. Slipping our arms into this sweatshirt’s long sleeves will feel like slipping them into a puffy cloud on a gorgeous day with absolutely nothing on our to-do list. As the rest of the bodice envelops our body, we’ll know the true meaning of comfort, warmth and relaxation!

This is a total wear-anywhere piece. It’s obviously our first choice for a trip to the gym, but it’s also our first choice for lounging, our first choice for running errands — you get the point. We especially love it for trips to the grocery store in the middle of summer when it’s super hot outside, but absolutely freezing inside. We can tie it around our waist for the trip there; it’s lightweight so it won’t drag us down like other outerwear would. Then, when we get to the frozen aisle, instead of picking out ice cream with blue lips and goosebump-covered arms, we can just put this hoodie on and take our time deciding if it’s a cookies and cream week or a chocolate fudge week. Or both!

This hoodie is, of course, an essential for colder weather as well. It’s made to layer easily, with a simple and streamlined fit that doesn’t hang off our body like a babydoll dress. It doesn’t cling too tightly either, though. It’s just the right amount of roomy, with plenty of stretch to go around! It’s perfect for throwing on under a denim jacket, for example, and we just love how cute the hood looks when we untuck it and let it hang out the back!

What we love about zip-up hoodies is how they can actually be worn open or closed. It seems obvious, but we’ve owned so many cardigans or blazers that look so strange or are pulled too tight when we actually try to close them up. With this hoodie, if we feel a chill, we can zip up and keep going about our day knowing that we look equally cute but are so much warmer and cozier!

To casually style this hoodie, we have plenty of options. Throw it on over a sports bra and leggings combo for a pilates class or weightlifting session and get “Eye of the Tiger” ready on your workout playlist to totally kill it and achieve goals. For just hanging out with friends or going for a walk in the park, jeans are a must in any color! Jean shorts work just as well. As do linen ones. It’s a hoodie, after all! It goes with everything!

You won’t believe the quality and value of this hoodie when you finally try it on, so what are you waiting for?
