Pastel princess

The hottest hues on the spring runways were the prettiest of pastels! Pick a shade that complements your style best (our current favorite is mint!) and rock it wherever you please. These ankle strap shoes are to die for.

Shiny New Year

Metallic everything is hot right now—but you don’t have to go disco-ball-chic to get the look. A pair of neutral silver leggings does the trick in a cool, subtle way. Pair ’em with your coziest, fuzziest sweater to offset the slickness of the shiny material.

Wide open

Sick of skinnies? You’re in luck, girlie! While we can’t fathom the year when skinny jeans will go out of style, wide legs are giving them a run for their money next year. Show off the fullness of the wide leg with a tight tee on top! We love ’em with sky-high wedges.

What is that, velvet?

Not just for the king’s royal robes and grandma’s curtains anymore! Crushed velvet is making a serious comeback. This decadent fabric can be worked anywhere from head-to-toe. Try it in an unexpected jewel-tone for an updated winter twist!

Faux real

Faux fur is the coziest way to update your winter wardrobe for the New Year. And fear not—you can pull this look off without feeling like you’re wearing the family pet. Not into the yawn-worthy grandma-style long fur coat? Try a vest or a scarf to add a little fuzz to your fabulous outfit!

Pink power

The winner for the coolest color you need to kick-start the New Year with? PINK. Admit it—you love the sweet, girly, classic vibe that the pinkiest pinks give your outfits. Test the waters with one vibrant candy-colored piece, or better yet, rock it from top to bottom.
