Once I saw the titre of this article, I knew IU would be featured! allkpop posté "10 Female Idols Who Can Rock Beanies", and included IU, calling her "adorable" and posting THREE different pictures of her in 3 different beanies! Gotta l’amour em!

IU puts the "A" in "Adorable." We already know she has a baby-face, but with a beanie, she goes back in time and returns as her 15-year-old self. Her taste in beanies is just as adorable, ranging from the monster-ear beanie (far right) to the beanie with a huge fluff ball placed on top.

KBS 2TV's 'Yoo Hee Yeol's Sketchbook' had a Jeju Acoustic Festival (JAF) special on September 13, featuring singers John Park and IU, who saw each other again for the first time in a long time!

IU said, "I like acoustic musique with its simple composition. I think there's a high level of concentration," and performed an acoustic song with her soothing vocals. When asked if there was anything that came to mind in relation to Jeju Island, IU said, "I like Jeju Island's hallabong the best (a type of clementine). Its sweet taste is the best."

This cued John Park to appear holding a Jeju Island hallabong. He said, "It has been a while since I saw IU since a guest appearance at a concert. Today, she gives off a mature and womanly feel."
IU went for a simple girl-next-door look. She paired the chemisier with pêche, peach colored shorts and a bright color block shoulder bag. She opted for natural make-up and "apple hair" with loose curls. Na-Eun went in a different direction when styling the blouse. She wore the piece with a white high-waist flared jupe with black polka dots. She, too, went for a natural look with light make-up and loose curls.

IU's outfit was perfect for her role as Soon Shin. However, I think Na-Eun really shined in this outfit. I l’amour that she ran away with the feminine look. The jupe perfectly balances out the attention from the bare shoulders and ruffled sleeves on the blouse.

But in the end both ladies looked beautiful!
