Aqua Sweater 3 Ways for The Ageless Style Link Up
Today’s Ageless Style Link Up brings you Winter Blues! I bought this aqua sweater last year in the juniors section at TjMaxx, the color having drawn my eyes instantly. I wore it last year for the blog with white jeans here, and I thought I would share 3 more ways to wear it this year. Remember that these ideas could work just as well with any bright sweater! I found my inspiration on Pinterest, so I am sharing my inspo pictures too!
Black Denim
My outfit is loosely based on this picture: I shopped my closet for black jeans and my leopard shoes. I had a blush pink clutch that was close in color to the purse above and voila, my version of the outfit.
Light Denim
Most of my denim is dark, but I have had this pair of Amazon jeans for a number of years now. Since I do not have anything to replace them, I still have them in my closet, but I do not wear them much. I had a pair of cream combat boots so I paired them with this. I did add my thrifted belt: as I put it on, I was glad I had not checked the size: it is a L but fits quite well and has enough holes to fit snugly.
With Brown
When I looked at this outfit, I looked at the colors and thought: I think I have some pieces in my closet that are similar in color! Therefore my outfit was born! My son was funny and said that this skirt would have not been allowed a hundred years ago. I think it would be a very cute date night look!

I can see how that sweater caught your eye right away; the color is so pretty! I love all three of the ways you styled it but that last outfit is just fabulous!

That one is definitely my favorite and I wouldn’t have thought of that combo on my own!
Jill
The color of your sweater is perfect to brighten up a winter day! Love all of the looks you styled!

I had to look on Pinterest to figure out how to style my pale blue sweater and I saw a lot of pairings with black too, but when I tried it on myself, I didn’t like it. I really love the blue and brown look (I tried that too and didn’t think it worked. Maybe it has to be the right shade of brown). Anyway, great looks. My fav is definitely the blue and brown look.

I definitely think that there is something with that particular shade of brown that works well with the aqua color.

So many options here and they all look so different! I really like the last one with the skirt. I think that color combo is so pretty!

Thanks, Laura!

I never think to look on Pinterest for ideas. I really do need to do that as I have a couple of problematic pieces! Love the aqua and brown look!

Mireille, the colour of that sweater is gorgeous!! I love how you styled it three ways, with my favourite colour combination being the brown. My husband had a t-shirt in that colour and he used to wear it with dark chocolate brown combats – and it looked so cool! I was so sad when he got rid of them both!!
I hope you’re well, my friend, and staying warm!
Big hugs

Love it all four ways, I went to check it out with the white jeans as well. It’s really great for any season and I am obsessed with the color. I’ve been trying to add more color to my winter wardrobe because it really is a mood changer. Love that last outfit, just a little bit sexy!

That color is really pretty for sure! Going out on a date next Saturday night and I think the last look will be my outfit!

What a fun sweater! Love this aqua color and you chose such fun ways to style. All three looks were super inspirational and I love your take on them!

What a versatile piece!! The color reminds me of Native American turquoise jewelry…gorgeous. Love the way you took the third insprational look and changed the pants for a skirt. I have/had a skirt very similar. Could almost replicate this look.
I just read Kellyann’s post about style tips for 2025. She talked about not having to buy everything you like. I need to tattoo that on my forehead. And she also suggested we dress for this stage of our lives. I have hung onto dresses and ‘professional’ things because I might substitute teach more. Reality is, I often grab a pair of jeans to sub. Need to get over myself and clean out that closet once and for all. This is the year.

Yes! I love turquoise! I have a few things that I keep for the special occasion that might require it in the corner of my closet, but the rest is all things that I rotate regularly in. Good luck on decluttering your closet. I find that I find more options when I have less in there: it’s easier to see and I also don’t have to weed through the clothes that I don’t really like.

Love the sweater. The color is super amazing and fun.

I’ve really been drawn to neutrals when thrifting.

I love both ways you styled this sweater. The color palette of tan and aqua is fabulous!
