Elevated PJs
Pajamas have the capacity to transcend bedtime style — and it’s definitely an outfit to try in the new year if you’ve grown tired of your ratty, old sweatsuits. A matching silk sleepwear set, in particular, feels especially elevated. Jonathan Paciullo
Brown Is The New Black
In case you missed it: Brown has become the fashion set’s new go-to shade, perhaps even replacing black as the leading neutral hue. You can subtly participate in the color trend with pops of brown or go all out with a head-to-toe chocolate look.Jonathan Paciullo
Mixing Prints
If you’re feeling adventurous, why not piece together an outfit that features varying prints? Pro tip: Team pieces together that boast similar color palettes, so the look feels cohesive and intentional.Jonathan Paciullo
A Mood-Boosting Palette
When you feel yourself seeking out maximalist energy, consider an unexpected color pairing. A clash of joyful colors — like magenta and lilac — creates a dramatic sartorial effect that’s a surefire way to boost your mood.Getty Images
An Ode To McBling
Wear a rhinestone outfit to pay homage to the aught’s McBling era, a style phenomenon that encompasses shiny, bedazzled items like Von Dutch hats and Juicy Couture tracksuits. Jonathan Paciullo
A Carrie-Inspired Look

An Updated Trench
If you’re drawn to classic pieces, but seek to integrate more contemporary touches into your 2022 wardrobe, consider an updated trench. A coat with subtle design tweaks — like one that swaps khaki for a lively color or features printed panels — makes the piece feel novel.Getty Images
Pants Underneath A Dress
Utilize the ‘00s era combo of wearing pants underneath a dress for an unexpected ensemble. It's a resourceful technique that gives your summer dresses a chance to be worn in the winter, and the pairing feels wonderfully whimsical. Getty Images
Party-Ready Chainmail
No matter the occasion, you can tap into a party-ready spirit by donning chainmail pieces. Whether via a disco ball-esque handbag or a skin-revealing tank, the look creates a dramatic effect that emanates drama.Getty Images
Menswear-Inspired Prep
Spruce up your standard button-down and blazer combo by throwing on a menswear-inspired tie. A sleek cravat will emulate the laid-back yet put-together look of an off-duty professor while remaining true to preppy style.Jonathan Paciullo
A Painterly Skirt
Tell a vivid sartorial story with a skirt that boasts a painterly look. Pair the artistic piece with subdued, neutral items to ensure your skirt remains the hero piece in your ensemble.Getty Images
Dimensional Monochrome
A monochromatic, tonal look can feel effortlessly dynamic — the trick here is to add dimension via different materials like leather, silk, and fur.Jonathan Paciullo
Clashing Aesthetics
This fashion hack creates an intriguing effect. For instance, accessorizing a multi-pocket boiler suit with crystal jewelry creates a utilitarian yet glamorous, hard yet soft ensemble that feels fresh and inspired.Jonathan Paciullo
