A sweater set for early spring strikes a nice balance with lime green strappy sandals.
I love a good set. It just makes outfitting so easy. You don’t have to think; you just throw on and go! This pink crochet sweater set is a solid example, which you can find in the May issue of KC Homes & Style. That punchy pink and white combo caught my eye straight away, but what really prompted me to snag it was the fact the sweater material and longer sleeves would make it perfect for early spring when temps are still cool.
I wanted to add some additional punch with the shoe choice, so I went with a lime green strappy sandal. Super manageable heel, great color, and worked nicely with the pink in the sweater set. Spring has sprung, let’s bring out all the fun colors! A white crossbody bag big enough to hold the basics, some sparkle on the ears with a fun cuff and hoop earrings, and a pair of vintage Chanel sunglasses I pulled from the archives. (These were my campus go-to’s in college; they feel like a nice early aughts throwback here.)
The final is very post-Barbie era but is polished enough to be taken seriously at the office. If you’re worried about being too bold with the pink and lime combo, swap out the sandal for something nude or white. Want to make it more casual? Opt for a sleek white leather sneaker. And let’s not forget a matching set doesn’t have to stay a matching set; you can always break it apart and wear it tons of different ways. Next up for this particular pink crochet sweater set is wearing the top with a pair of wide-leg jeans and the skirt with a ribbed white halter tee and sneakers.
