Feelin’ Matchy Matchy

It’s officially spring and I am loving every second of it. Ever since “spring forward” the days have been longer and brighter, and I am definitely feeling that extra spring in my step. One trend that I have been loving for a while is matching sets – the modern take on matching separates incorporates cutouts, patterns, and fun silhouettes to add a little bit of spice. Imagine my excitement when I stumbled across this tropical floral two-piece set from Forever 21 (shopping tip: check the new arrivals every day, new stuff tends to drop around 10/11am PST). A cute set that reminds me of the tropics and is under $50? Count me in.

Why I LOVE Matching Sets

Matching sets are a trend that is here to stay! Not only because you can wear them separately or together (increasing the number of outfits in your closet) but because they are just so damn EASY. This is a look that is super on trend and versatile. For daytime, think lighter fabrics and prints, or a tracksuit or cropped top + joggers. For evening, think silk or velvet, a crop top and flowy pants, or a bralette and a skirt or shorts. The options are seriously endless!

Here I’m wearing a tropical print matching set out and about, but this outfit would be perfect for spring break or that beach vacation you have coming up. Even if you don’t have a tropical getaway planned, wearing this set could potentially transport you to someplace exotic – your mood is reflected in what you wear, right? ; )

For reference, I am wearing a size S on top and an XS in the skirt and the fit is generally true to size. This set also comes in a black palm print that I was seriously lusting over as well. And of course, you can always mix and match pieces with what you already have in your closet – always a win.
