Choosing the right pink shade

There is a large variety of pink sweater designs and shades to choose from. And, the first essential factor is to choose the right shade of pink that will complement your style.

There’s the general rule that cold palettes are for blondes, and warm palettes are for brunettes. Yet, according to color theory, it’s more complicated to find the right colors as skin tones and undertones play an important factor.


So, except for choosing your favorite pink shades, it’s good for all of us to experiment with new palettes.


If you prefer cool neutral colors, light pink, dusty pink, and salmon pink are ideal, and can wear them on any occasion. But, if warm shades compliment our face we can choose hot shades like fuchsia and hot pink.

8 stylish ways to wear a pink sweater

First of all, the obvious and most common way to wear a pink sweater in winter is black. Everyone has a black coat or jacket and black pants or jeans. But, because there are so many other unexpectedly beautiful ways to highlight a pink sweater, here you will find eight of them through inspirational outfit layouts and pretty findings.


Combine a grey coat with a light pink sweater

Grey and pink color have one basic common element. They contain white and they are lighter than their referring color. In other words, we take pink when adding white to red and grey when adding white to black. So, their combination makes a softer contrast than pink and black.

This cool winter outfit combines a pink sweater and an oversized gray coat with dark blue jeans, floral combat boots, and cute accessories.

Try to pair green pants with a pink sweater

Pink sweater vs. green pants? How easily would you pair and style them? We indeed prefer to wear colors like pink and green with neutrals like black, white, or gray because it’s the easiest and safest way. But, choosing an unusual combination like pink with green could give an unexpectedly cute outfit. The secret to the perfect outfit lies in the shades of the colors and how harmonically you pair them.

Complementary colors are the opposite colors in the traditional color wheel. And, the pink-green pair belongs in them. That’s why they look so good together although they are so different. Thus, wearing a pink sweater with green bottoms or a fabulous green coat is an excellent sophisticated selection. Plus, you can balance it with a neutral garment with subtle grey or off-white tones.

Select brown pants or shorts

Brown and pink have a natural warmness due to their red base. So, a pink sweater with brown bottoms reflects the warm coziness that a winter style should have. Whether you choose brown pants, a skirt, shorts, or a coat, the outcome will be gorgeous. Plus, you can add extra texture by selecting corduroy or tweed garments to make the outfit richer and warmer.

Choose to wear it with a camel coat and pink pants

One of the most elegant ways to wear a pink sweater is with a camel coat, especially a light pink or dusty pink sweater. Camel shade compliments pink and creates a stylish neutral winter look. And, we can easily pair it with camel pants or make the difference by choosing pink bottoms, like pastel pants, or a cute light pink skirt. Thus, we will get a romantic yet sophisticated winter outfit.

Go radiant with red pants or a red skirt

Pink and red create a radiant modern color block. So, combining your pink sweater with red pants or a red skirt, you will have a fabulous look. And, if you find red too intense for your palette, there are more muted red shades, like burgundy and terracotta.

Pair it with blue denim and a white shirt

This is a classic combination to wear from casual to chic. Pink pairs harmonically with blue and the white shirt underlines their sweet contrast. Whether we wear it with sneakers, flats, or heels, blue denim jeans, a white shirt, and a pink sweater look fabulous together. Moreover, we can add cute pink details like a pair of tiny stud earrings or we can choose a shirt with a subtle pattern like polka dots. Plus, a bag in a neutral color like white, black, or grey will complete the outfit. And, this look is perfect not only for the winter but also for the early spring.
