The New Year is a chance for all of us to start a-fresh. You may want to eat healthier, exercise more, or try something new, like changing up your style. I’ll be profiling three different resolutions to try in a 3-part series!

First Up: BE BOLD

  • Mix different patterns

Take this floral midi skirt from ASOS for example,

you could pair it with big bold stripes

  • Try a crop top    

I know this one can be out there but it is a great sophisticated option. Like this from ASOS

Again, here is a great article with more tips and tricks on how to pull off a crop top for any body shape.

  • Add bright colors (my absolute favorite)

If your wardrobe is lacking color, this is a great time to incorporate a few key pieces that bring the rainbow (and smiles!) into your outfits.

– Try wearing brightly colored tights. Target carries a wide variety of colors from blue, to green, to pink, to yellow, and red.

New to wearing colored tights? Here are a few fashion and style tips on how to wear colored tights.

– Not a fan of tights? I love colored pants too as an option to add bright colors to my wardrobe.

You can take these tangerine pants (which I really WANT) …

And pair it with this royal blue cardigan. Instant pop of color 🙂
