Bright-Colored Sweaters Celebrate Spring!

AGB Ruffle Trim Cardigan Duet Top

Spring, which officially started on Tuesday, is here! The song birds have returned, the fruit trees are bursting with a zillion petite blossoms, the brown landscape is giving way to bright pink tulips and buttery daffodils and lush green grass, and on and on. With so many wonderful changes, it's hard not to be in a festive mood. And the last thing I want to wear is some drab black or dark-colored winter sweaters. I want to celebrate with a sweater in a festive color! The right color sweater will brighten an over 50 woman's complexion and help her project her spirited nature. I'm all for that! There are lots of lovely sweaters in vibrant colors online right now, like the AGB Ruffle Trim Cardigan Duet Top (was $52, now $31.20) above. Continue reading for a sample…


ORANGE YOU GLAD IT'S SPRING?
Is orange your color? If so, you might want to stock up this spring on orange-colored garments--it's the "it" color, according to fashion followers. I love this next fringed, shawl-like sweater.

Springtime can be pretty fickle weather-wise. One day, it's in the 80s, the next day in the 50s. These next two sweaters--the second is a sweater coat--will keep you comfortable in varying temperatures.
