I would wear a solid top in the medium or pale pink background pink pictured on those leggings to match.  It would look feminine.

 

IMO the leggings are the star and focal point and I would just compliment them with a pale pink top.

 

I don't believe in the color rules anymore for the seasons.

Yes!  As someone posted, a light to medium tint of terracotta would be a good 'match'.

 

Maybe a tunic length, so the light-ness of the color of the print in the leggings wouldn't be too obvious. (Too Spring-ish)

'More or less', 'Right or wrong', 'In general', and 'Just thinking out loud ' (as usual).

This color wheel of tints is similar to your print. To look put together and not disjointed, stay in this same color family and similiar cool/warm variation. Hope you find something you like at a great price.

To me, this print looks very spring and summer but you wrote that the fabric is heavy.  What about a top in the deepest shade of stems on the flowers?  Of course, you could wear white or block with them.

Here's a men's sweatshirt in a kind of terracotta color. Good for people who prefer to remain private about where they went for vacation.

I found these abstract floral jeggings for $8. The fabric is very heavy and I probably won't wear them until fall.

When I look down at my legs I don't really like the print. But when I see myself in the mirror, I do. Abstract prints look better from a distance.  

 

The background is blush with clay, teal and white print. I don't own any teal or clay tops. White or blush would be too spring/summery.

 

What color would work for fall? I own a chocolate brown shaker knit sweater. I'm willing to invest in a sweatshirt of the perfect color.

 

This top comes in variius colors as well as a style that has a hood. "Yanekop Womens Waffle Knit Shacket Boyfriend Shirt Jacket Button Down Blouse Loose Fit Long Sleeve Tops"

@PickyPicky3 - What pretty leggings! I can't believe they were only $8 - you were lucky!

 

I agree with everyone else who said pick up the darker colors. I don't know your coloring, but a light color might wash you out too much. Your brown sweater would look nice, then I would go with teal, clay/terracotta, or fig. I agree that a dark grey would look nice too. But my choice would be teal or terracotta.  Smiley Happy

I wouldn't wear this loud print on the bottom half of me. As a top? Yes.

I used the term "deep blush" to do a google search. I also used "deep blush sweatshirt". Walmart and Amazon came up. Good luck
