Why neon is spring’s biggest trend: Here’s how to shop it starting at $16
This week I’ve mixed it up with an unexpected celebrity as my style inspiration. From Netflix’s Queer Eye, the fabulous Jonathan Van Ness!
I saw JVN on Watch What Happens Live With Andy Cohen Sunday night talking about his new nickname for Trump (it’s “bronze-strosity,” BTW) and I was like, hold up — he looks so cute in his bright neon yellow knit sweater!
Spring is usually about fresh pastels. But not this year! It’s all about bright, bold neons. From Jennifer Lopez on World of Dance to Katy Perry on American Idol, this fun trend is popping up everywhere! In fact, JVN’s fellow guest, and Real Housewives of Atlanta star, Kim Zolciak-Biermann and host Andy Cohen were also rocking neon in the clubhouse.
JVN was wearing a striped sleeve oversized sweater by Maison Margiela, which is a steep $655.
Shop it: Oversized Knitted Sweater, $655, farfetch.com
Here are some more affordable options to get JVN’s look.
I love this oversized v-neck sweater by Boohoo, which you can also pull to one side for an off-the-shoulder effect. And it’s only $16! Seriously, you can’t beat that.
Shop it: Oversized V Neck Sweater, $16, boohoo.com
Want to know a secret? I totally shop in the men’s department sometimes. I always thought if you want that “boyfriend” fit, why not just shop in the boys’ section? Try this men’s neon green cable knit from ASOS for just under $50!
Here are a few more options that I am obsessing over:
Shop it: Neon Yellow Cable Knitted Jumper, $27, missguidedus.com
Shop it: Line & Dot neon sweater, $96, shopbop.com
Shop it: Theory Karenia Cashmere Sweater, $200 (was $285), shopbop.com
Shop it: Lime High Neck Fluffy Knit Sweater, $45, prettylittlething.us
That’s my trend of the week! As always, I’d love to see what you put together so tweet me @KylieEricaMar and send me pics of your picks! See ya next week!
