Taste is, of course, subjective, but our editorial team gathered to reflect on what they’re eager to try this year and what they’re ready to leave behind. Share your personal fashion Do’s and Don’ts with us!
DO’s
BUILD YOUR WARDROBE WITH MEANING
Invest in unique pieces: handmade treasures, vintage finds, or timeless items that elevate your personal style. These are the gems you’ll cherish forever—even when trends fade.
WHAT TO CARRY
Ditch overexposed designer bags. Instead, opt for vintage or one-of-a-kind pieces from your favorite brands. Statement bags feel passé in a world of inflated prices and endless replicas. Better yet, personalize your existing collection or create something entirely your own.
DRESS YOUR AGE, BUT MAKE IT COOL
Trying too hard? It shows. While “less is more” remains true, with age, sometimes “more” feels just right—when done with authenticity and effortless flair.
BOLD & UNIQUE JEWELRY
Select stones that complement your skin tone and features. Jewelry should enhance your natural beauty or make a statement. The right combinations are everything.
SPORTY GLAM
Join the club—literally. Chic, tailored sportswear is the new wardrobe essential, especially when paired with a fit, glowing body.
DON’Ts
TWINNING AND SHOWY BEHAVIOR
Confidence and individuality are key. Avoid matching outfits or over-the-top antics designed for Instagram likes—it can feel more caricature than chic.
LOGOMANIA OVERLOAD
Unless you’re cashing million-dollar checks, steer clear of overt branding. Why advertise for a label that charges exorbitant prices for minimal value?
SALE TEMPTATIONS
Sure, sales are tempting, but wouldn’t it be better if fashion cycles produced fewer, higher-quality pieces? Iconic, well-made items rarely linger in the sale rack.
POSTURE MATTERS
No matter what you wear, good posture is non-negotiable. Stand tall, walk straight, and project confidence—it’s more powerful than any outfit.
FITNESS WEAR BEYOND THE GYM
Leggings and sports bras belong in Pilates class, not airports or cafés. Transition into proper attire once your workout ends—fitness wear as daywear is a big no-no.
