The trend cycle used to last six months to a year but now looks go in and out of style in weeks. While the temptation to buy into each passing trend is very real,

For example, picking up a chocolate brown slip skirt or a sweater vest for the winter season will add a trendy element to your existing outfits into 2021. In addition to '70s-inspired browns and layered sweaters, read up on the easy, chic ways to style an outfit in the new year below.
