How would you style this cardigan?

I bought this raspberry cardigan in the Mango sale. The colour is not as it looks in the picture at all. It's much more of a raspberry plum colour, whereas the picture makes it look bright pink. Anyway the colour is one of my go-to as it really suits my skin tone and it's rare to find in the shops what with all the neutral ice-cream shades everywhere

How would you style this and what would you wear it with to look current? I'm 44, 5'9, size 12. I need a top underneath as the v-neck is low and I've got boobs.

I've got some indigo wide leg jeans which look good. Anything else, accessories, shoes, top underneath?

Thank you!

Ooh, lovely top! If it wasn’t too cold, lol, I’d wear a similar shape top underneath to show off the boobs. But that’s me, lol. If cold a paler pink crew or polo neck thin sweater-type top. Wide leg jeans and dark pink trainers? You are tall, lucky thing, so will look awesome in most things!

Thanks! What colour v neck top would work please?

Would look nice with a black leather skirt and tights with flat chunky ankle boots

That colour pink works with dark colours, black, navy, purple, but equally would look fresh with white or pale pink. I'd wear it with a lace trimmed cami underneath, or thin top.

Cheap Primark stretch cami top for underneath and then I think some figure hugging jeans or leather/ pleather skirt.

I love that top, but can't see it on the Mango site. Are you able to link it, OP, please?

@MounjaroOnMyMind I've just found it on asos site

These are my colours too OP. I would have a burgundy/ chocolate brown tones underneath, very classy.

If you want to go bright, turquoise is lovely. If you're brave you can clash with a purple or orange or super brave and go yellow (deffo not for my skin tone tho!) Think of all the jewel tones, they'll all go.
