Is it only me, or are fashionable Londoners beginning to replace their cream knits with this equally elegant alternative?
I will always have a fondness for cream and white knitwear. Timeless, adaptable, and undeniably stylish, these classic neutrals have been long-time essentials in the wardrobes of some of the most fashionable individuals, especially in the fall. Recently, however, a new player has subtly appeared on the streets of London, providing a fresh (and frankly, very fashionable) perspective on cozy, seasonal dressing. Enter: pale yellow.
At first glance, the color may seem a bit dull, but I assure you it is anything but. It not only offers that same refined, high-quality appearance as your reliable creams but also feels much more refreshing. This shade pairs beautifully with black, and even better with brown, the standout color trend of 2025, as well as with blue denim or red. From buttery cardigans to roll-necks, some of the most stylish residents of London are replacing their usual neutrals with this gentle hue, and I plan to do the same.
You might be asking what I mean by pale yellow. Let me clarify. Pale yellow encompasses a variety of shades, but in this context, I’m referring to that soft, buttery, almost cream-like tone—with just a very subtle hint of yellow. It’s not bright or striking, but it differentiates itself from standard beiges in a noticeable yet understated way. Understood? Great!
If, like me (and the rest of London), you’re considering a change in your color palette this winter, I’ve gathered my favorite pieces to help you embrace the pale yellow knitwear trend. Keep scrolling to see and shop my selection.
