Happy March, Us family! We couldn’t be more excited about transitioning to transitional weather season… if that makes sense. And no, it’s not the chilly, blustery days that get Us excited — if that’s what does it for you though, we admire your positive attitude! We’re thinking about transitional weather fashion, which means a good amount of layering, a whole lot of colors, the occasional floral pattern and predominantly comfy fabrics that have lasted through winter.
But if your soft, fluffy lounge outfit is starting to make you sweat, that’s probably because it’s getting incrementally warmer outside. Although they’re comfortable, soft and fluffy fabrics become a little too soft and fluffy at this time of year. You want something to lounge in that’s lightweight, breathable and of course, fashionable!
We searched high and low to find 18 two-piece lounge sets under $40 bound to make your transitional lounging feel cozy and warm, but not too cozy and warm. These outfits are designed to give you the comfortable feeling you seek without causing you to overheat. Some are short-sleeved, some are long-sleeved, some have shorts, others have pants — but no matter what you’re searching for, a stylish new lounge set is just a click away!
