With a new year in play, it’s only natural that one thinks about resetting and as a fashion editor my mind obviously goes to my wardrobe first. Freshening up my wardrobe not only comes with a much-needed clean out but also probes me to reflect on the trends I’m ready to toss and forecast those I’m looking to try out.
Trends are ever changing and in a world plagued by consumerism and quick, easy purchasing, I’ve found it an important introspection to make sure I’m abiding by at least a one-in, one-out policy with my closet.
Living a fast-paced, city lifestyle and realizing that investing in my clothing is of utmost importance, I found that the A-list clothes I’m looking forward to adding all hinge on practicality. And in return, the ones I’m losing are those that don’t offer that same functionality. A few I’m tossing include micro mini bags, impractical stilettos, and Y2k baby tees, and in return, I’m adding medium-sized shoppers, sensible sling backs, and athletic jerseys.
Below, I’ve detailed all the exciting trends I’m looking forward to bringing in this year as well as an accompanying shopping list in case you’re looking for a refresh too.
