This is my official love letter to matching sets. I need to begin by saying I am extremely late to the matching set trend, I’m talking 13 months late.
In my defense though, when they were at their peak popularity (beginning of the pandemic in March and April 2020), it was almost impossible to get a good set at a reasonable price point before it was gone! Then I also didn’t really have a significant income for all of 2020 and was living on my intern salary, so not one, but two pricey pieces of unnecessary clothing wasn’t high on the list of my needs last year. Did any of this keep my from wanting a set (or two or three??) of my own? Not one bit.
Well, I am happy to say I FINALLY have a matching set of my very own.
This sounds dramatic, but I honestly feel like the matching set I have has changed my life… I warned you- I’m dramatically in love with the matching set life.
I’ve also noticed when I got these one or two matching set pieces, suddenly other basic pieces in my wardrobe went with these pieces too, and it’s like my eyes have been opened to my wardrobe in a new way.
How did sweatpants and sweatshirts become high fashion? I truly think “quarantine” is the only appropriate answer. It honestly makes sense to me now. Especially after a few weeks of being back in the office two days a week, I am missing my comfortable clothes terribly by the middle of the day, and by the end of the day I’m miserable in what I’m wearing. So it just feels right that we have collectively moved into baggy sweatpants as high fashion.
Nothing feels better than coming home at the end of a long day in the office and putting on the matching set I own. Just slightly better though, is living in the matching set allll day. It’s amazing honestly.
