Knitwear

All I can think of is how much this minty sweater reminds me of the Louis Vuitton Spring 2012 color palette. I’m ready to pair this cozy knit from Acne with a great pair of white jeans or some fitted capris and espadrilles. The color goes surprisingly well with Spring neutrals like white, sand, and golden khaki, as well as some unexpected shades like sun-washed pink, lilac and coral. I can see it all coming together like a spontaneous weekend escape to the beach, but a quality knit like this could set you back a few hundred dollars unless you’re lucky enough to have a friend in the know. Well, you do! Can you guess what we found?

ASOS Aran Sweater In Pastel

Amazing, right? Leave it to ASOS to provide us with this lovely confection. This sweater is perfect for a stroll along a windy shore and if it’s too chilly to wear it solo, layer it under a cozy trench and add a pretty printed scarf. Either way, you’ll be sweeter than a box of conversation hearts. So, what are you waiting for? Get one for yourself and start packing for that romantic weekend!

I’m a sucker for all things ASOS, but in the last few months and weeks I kind of fell out of love with it a little.

Obvioulsly that changed today when I saw a buck load of new bright and colorful arrivals which ignited the spark again.

So how fabulous does Charlize Theron look here? Very, I’d say. I absolutely adore her emerald green wool sweater by Stella McCartney and the ivory YSL Roady hobo, so I decided to recreate Charlize’s shopping look on a more budget-friendly basis. Let us know what you think!

Kim Kardashian likes to stand out. And if she does so by flaunting fabulous outfits like the one shown below, well, I don’t mind. How gorgeous is her lemon Birkin bag anyway? And the pink cardigan? Love the combo and the fact that she kept everything pretty basic with a white tee, jeans and neutral shoes. Check out our budget version of Kim’s look below and let us know what you think.
