Kelly Clarkson's Short-Sleeve Sweater Is the Summer-to-Fall Staple You Should Be Stocking Up on Now

Welcome to The Blueprint, where we take apart the celebrity looks we want to wear right now and recreate them, piece by piece.

I don’t know about you, but I can’t wait for sweater weather. Something about warm knits is just so cozy. However, it’s still pretty warm outside, but Kelly Clarkson just showed me how to smartly start wearing sweaters without overheating.

In a recent Instagram post, The Kelly Clarkson Show The host wore a short-sleeved knitted sweater with trendy stripes. Short sleeves are so practical, allowing your arms to breathe while keeping you comfortable during the unpredictable fall weather.

She paired the sweater with another seasonal must-have: dark washed blue jeans. The shade is ideal for those who are not yet ready to reveal their black jeans, but still want to embrace the vibes of nature’s cooler seasons.

If you’re looking to effortlessly switch up your fall wardrobe, Clarkson’s short-sleeve sweater and navy blue jeans are the way to go. Keep reading to shop similar styles on Amazon starting at just $19.

Copy Clarkson’s recent look with this stylish option from Amazon that looks so similar. A short sleeve shirt provides slightly more coverage than a tank top, while still allowing your arms to breathe, and the knit is lightweight so you won’t overheat. Plus, the pullover style makes packing so easy. It is available in six colors, including orange, blue and black. I love how you can wear it in so many ways, whether you style it with jeans, trousers or a skirt.

Both Reese Witherspoon and I are fans of puff sleeves like the ones on this pullover above that give it a dressy vibe. The crochet knit allows for plenty of air flow, and the high neckline covers the chest. “It’s so versatile,” one customer wrote in a review, adding that they “dress up with formal pants or down with jeans.” Bonus: It’s more than half price right now.

It’s no secret that wide-leg jeans are taking over Hollywood — I personally love that they remind me of a comfortable alternative to sweatpants. These wide-leg jeans have a high waist for support and come in a fall-ready dark color that you can wear with sweaters, blouses and more.

I am adding a short sleeve sweater to my wardrobe as soon as possible. If you want to join me in recreating Kelly Clarkson’s recent outfit, keep reading to find more sweater and jeans combos on Amazon below.
