Easy Outfits: I'm Obsessed With Neutrals, but This $37 Sweater Has Me Colour Obsessed

Sweaters [1] for Fall are about as groundbreaking as florals for Spring, but that hardly means we love them less for that reason. I myself am rather sweater obsessed and often make the case for new styles in my wardrobe every season. From simple black sweaters [2] to trendier versions, I'm all about experimentation when it comes to knits, whether it's rethinking a classic style [3] or embracing a new design detail, silhouette, or colour [4]. This month, a pretty pink sweater from the latest POPSUGAR collection at Kohl's [5] drop caught my eye and encouraged me to step outside my neutral comfort zone (if you were wondering, I'm fiercely loyal to black, ivory, camel, and grey), leading me to a newfound easy outfit formula [6] that I'm obsessed with for Fall.

Going full-on colour fanatic, I layered the open-weave knit atop a floral-print dress and topped off my look with a coordinating pink leather jacket. Since that's a whole lot of colour for one neutral-loving lady like myself, I went with a minimal white bag and mules to finish. As if that weren't enough experimentation for one day, I leaned into the vibe a little further with a rich berry lip, which happens to be the Beauty by POPSUGAR Be Racy Liquid Velvet Lip [7] ($24) in Berry Nice. The result was an instant hit at the office, which encouraged me to try it for dinner and drinks after that. For more of a casual spin, I let the sweater hang long and loose over my hips with the same accessories, though I highly recommend subbing in boots or sneakers if mules feel too fussy.

Whether you are all about colour or, like me, have a willingness to embrace new shades, ahead, shop the sweater-and-dress outfit formula I'm obsessed with for Fall.
