Recently, a lot of people have asked me about my favorite F/W 2014 trend. Without fail, my answer is always the matched set. There is something so satisfying about a top and bottom that go so perfectly together that it looks like they were, well, made for each other. In my opinion, there's no easier way to put together an ensemble. The trend tells you exactly what to wear together, and nobody can call you out for being too "matchy-matchy." I also love the versatility of this trend. You can wear just the top, and you can wear just the bottom, or you can wear them together! 

However, these dynamic duos can be difficult to find within a certain price range. The solution? Two pieces that weren't necessarily meant to be worn together but definitely could be. It's a simple way to stay under your budget but still achieve the same look. The sets below were created with tops and bottoms from two entirely different stores, yet they look like they match! The key is to stick with patterns that are easily found among many retailers like stripes, plaid, or even polka dots.

There's something so unique, and, yet, completely obvious about this trend that I adore. What's your take on the trend? Is it too monotonous or a match made in heaven?
