The New Neutral Sweater Color That Looks Richer Than Gray, Tan, and Beige
Emma Stone just made the most compelling case for swapping your go-to boring knits for a shade that instantly reads as luxurious: pastel yellow. Stepping out in NYC for a Good Morning America appearance, the actress redefined fall color palettes with a creamy, pale yellow Khaite sweater.
This isn't a bright, jarring hue; it’s a soft, buttery tone that serves as the perfect new neutral. It has the same versatility as gray or beige, but with a palpable richness and warmth that makes every outfit look exponentially more expensive. Stone finished the ensemble with Aquazzura pointed-toe shoes, a structured Louis Vuitton bag, and gold Tiffany Co. jewelry. Her outfit confirms that pale yellow is ready to take its place among the most polished and versatile shades for fall and winter.
Ready to adopt the richest new neutral of the season? Say goodbye to dull grays and hello to butter-soft yellow. This color pairs flawlessly with everything already in your closet: black denim, rich brown leather, deep navy trousers, and so much more. Keep scrolling to shop pastel yellow sweaters, including Emma Stone's exact version from Khaite.
On Emma Stone: Khaite sweater; Maria McManus skirt; Aquazzura shoes; Tiffany Co. jewelry; Louis Vuitton bag.
