The start of a new year is the perfect excuse to refresh your wardrobe by adding a few new pieces that will make it feel new.
Stylist Brittney Levine stopped by TODAY to share some of the must-have items you can add to your closet to upgrade your style. From incorporating bold shades into your closet to embracing the jumpsuit trend — along with some trends that we loved in 2019 — these trendy tips will help revamp your look.
Ahead, shop the fashion essentials to hit reset on your 2020 wardrobe.
Introduce a bold color
Having black pieces in your wardrobe is the practical choice, but it can also make your style feel bland. Use the new year as a starting point to embrace bold colors, including mustard yellow which is the color of the season according to Levine.
Yellow Satin Skirt
This flowy, figure-flattering skirt isn't just fashion-forward — it's practical. The midi silhouette is perfect for winter and it has an elastic waist for optimal fit.
Cashmere Sweater
Cashmere doesn't have to be expensive. Case in point: this versatile design for just $29. The bright pink adds an eccentric spin to your closet but is still simple enough to wear to work.
Faux Croc Slingback Heels
A pair of classic slingbacks with a fashionable twist makes it easy to add a bold look to your shoe collection. These have a fun, crocodile-embossed pattern but the neutral color and stacked heel give them a practical factor.
Flower Stud Earrings
These versatile floral studs can be worn to parties, to the office or for a day out shopping with friends. The gold pair above has a 1 1/2-inch diameter so they're sure to stand out.
