What to Expect in 2020

A new year always brings along a lot of self-reflection on what we want to work on. Most people want healthy lifestyles, while others address their physical appearances. I also find myself in the “New Year New Lifestyle” situation. I know I may not have much insight on healthy lifestyles, but I do know a little something about fashion and I can help by sharing some of the top style principles for 2020 with you!

Our closets are one of the first places we start our day; therefore, it is important to treat it right. From what we put into them, to what we take out deserves a lot of thought. Soooo, this year I am declaring 2020 the year of the thoughtful wardrobe.

More Timeless, Less Trendy

At Stylistic Ladies Boutique we are not all about trends, but we are there when it comes to looking more timeless rather than trendy. This year ladies, let’s take our trends-in-moderation! By definition, trends come and go, so it is better for your wallet to buy more pieces that will last you more than one season. I’m not saying, stock your closet full of only essentials, but I am telling you to treat it to pieces that you are certain you won’t get tired of. The pieces that you know will stick around for a while. Your beauty is timeless, so your wardrobe should be as well!

Remove Unnecessary Clutter

We all know that wardrobe work out……the pushing and pulling to dig out the one item we have in mind that is stuffed between a thousand other pieces that we never actually wear. This is probably the most consistent New Year’s style task that I spoke about in length last year. It is hard to part with those pieces we cherished so dearly at the time of purchase. Let’s be real with ourselves though, if most of these pieces did not see the 2019 sunlight, they need to be gone.

Stepping Out of the Box

If you are a strong woman with a dazzling personality to match, then your attire should reflect. This year, we are stepping out of our comfort zone. Those pieces in our closet that we have tried on a million times only to take them off, are staying on this time! Go big, go bold, go brave and try something new with your wardrobe. You don’t have to stray too far from your classic style, just amp it up a little. Maybe it’s that pop of pattern, or you’ve been wanting to try polka dots or stripes, or you want to try a wardrobe full of color. Add some sparkle or even some statement sleeves. This year is the beginning of a new decade, it’s all about dressing to impress and WOW!

SO…What’s Trending IN 2020

Sometimes, when we’re looking at the latest trends or checking out celebrity outfits, we can sort a feel intimidated. Just relax, the truth is there really isn’t much in fashion that ends up being groundbreaking. However, this year some of the biggest and best styles from the ’60s, ’70s, and ’80s are making a comeback. Be ready to wear crocheted tops all summer. This year we will be embracing exaggerated collars, Polka-Dots, groovy denim, hot pants and micro minis. But, don’t be afraid, you can wear all of these trends in moderation and in styles that are flattering for you.

All in all, it seems like the overall goal for the next 11 months is to have more fun with our wardrobes. Take a look at what’s getting a round two, then plan accordingly. But remember, Stylistic will always be here to hold your hand.
