Emily in Chicago? London? Paris?
Yes, Emily Cooper's future is still TBD, but there's one thing we already know: Season 3 of Emily in Paris is going to be chock-full of eccentric, daring, and simply fun outfits worn by the title character, played by Lily Collins.
Last week, Netflix dropped the season 3 trailer for the hit series. And within the first five seconds (literally), our fashion alarm bells went off, as Collins' character was wearing a multi-colored sweater that was so vibrant, it immediately became an item we felt compelled to add to our winter wardrobe.
As the trailer progressed, the full outfit was revealed — and well, there was a lot of color. She paired the orange, turquoise, and purple Essentiel Antwerp sweater with a metallic skirt that featured hints of green and blue. But wait, there's more — the look was accessorized with a bright pink purse and knee-high green boots, of course.
IRL celebrities, too, have been wearing colorful sweaters as of late. Earlier this month, Reese Witherspoon shared an Instagram reel, and what was she wearing? A pink striped sweater. Mindy Kaling is also clearly a fan, as she's worn colorful prints a few times this past month.
While our closets full of neutrals were practically begging for the bright oranges, purples, and turquoises of Emily's sweater, the price tag, which is over $200, actually made our knees semi-weak. But on the bright side (these sweaters are colorful, after all), we've found six similar styles for less.

Emily Cooper loves checker print, or so it seems: In just last season's trailer alone, we spotted the character wearing a bedazzled checkered bucket hat and a checkered shirt with neon green trim because, again, remember, Emily and color are stuck together like glue.
So, why not raise Emily one? This green sweater from Mango incorporates the classic print with a bright green color, and is a sight for sore, neutral-filled eyes. The cropped cut is itching to be paired with some patterned shorts and knee-high boots (preferably green, like Emily) for an easy, affordable replica of her trademark style.
