Last year, I bought this lilac sweater at Forever 21, and haven't worn it much because:
1. It doesn't get cold enough in the sunny desert weather that I live in.
2. The wool blend knit with the pearl-embellishments require hand-washing. Lazy me tend to opt for machine-washable tee's rather than clothes than require extra maintenance.
3. I seem to have a mental-block when it comes to finding what to wear with this sweater.
Yet, I still keep the sweater because:
1. The soft lilac purple hue is so pretty and different.
2. I tell myself there will be random cold days (like today in the 60's ºF) that I would reach for this sweater.
3. The "Lickable Trend" outfit I posted last year was a hit (one of my favorite outfits).
Thus, sticking to what worked last year, I'm bringing out the pastels.
Do you wear pastels on pastels?

I remember when you first got that sweater and thinking it was so charming! Love that outfit -- the combination of preppy and feminine, stripes and pearls. I tend to shy away from pastels because I find that they wash me out (I think I only have one pastel-colored item in my closet!), but you're right, they are such pretty colors.
Love this look!
Adorable!

QQFS, I'm sure there's a pastel color that you might look good in...I'm thinking maybe mint or pale pale pink :)
Thanks Kelly!
