Prediction: This Will Be the It Sweater of the Year

Sweater season is finally upon us, which comes as a relief after retailers have been tempting us with a myriad of cozy options for weeks. Among the biggest sweater trends this year are ski motifs, oversize silhouettes, and off-the-shoulder styles, but it's a color trend that we've noticed among the offerings that we're most looking forward to wearing this year—pink! Pink is enjoying a major moment, with rose quartz being named one of 2016's colors of the year, and trend-setting brands such as Gucci and Prada making it a part of their F/W 16 collections.

Given that pink is such a crowd-pleaser across the board, there are options for every budget, from H&M to Stella McCartney. In fact, so many brands are stocking them for fall that we're confident that it's the sweater trend to beat this year. What we love most about the hue, besides its mood-lifting capabilities, is that it's a winner when worn with almost every hue on the color wheel—denim, black, camel, navy, cream, and brown included. So you can rest assured that you'll have no lack of existing pieces in your wardrobe to pair it with.
