2020 is officially here and it’s that time of the year in which we set breakable resolutions.  While I’m excited about a new year, I’ve been feeling a little bored with my wardrobe. So why not use the new year as an excuse to buy more clothes -ha ha.

I made a list of all the elements I felt my wardrobe lacked but realigning my style was harder than expected.  However, if you’re interested in implementing a new style then I hope you are inspired to try a few of these techniques!






I absolutely love my minimalistic style and I live for classic pieces that withstand time. But I’m eager to discover my highest style  potential. So, I knew it was essential to step out of my comfort zone and go against the grain of my personal style. Which made it a bit easier to set style goals. Here’s what’s on my list:


1.     Incorporate Bold Colors

      I’m not a fan of wearing colors. I usually play it too safe. My love-hate relationship with colors stemmed from the fear of my sweat appearing on my clothing. In my previous attempts to explore colors, I found myself sticking to neutrals in warm climates and deep brown tones during the colder months.

2.     Develop a Sporty Street Style

     It’s no surprise I struggle with separating my weekday style from the weekend.  My closet is filled with blouses, blazers and heels. In fact, I own only one pair of sneakers. (Don’t judge me).

3.     Avoid Compromising Comfort

     It’s been said that it hurts to look beautiful. But there’s no way I wanted to compromise my comfort just to try something new. So it was important that as I ventured off in a new realm of style, that I’m as comfortable as possible. (blog post coming soon)






Now for the record, I’m not a style expert (yet). I just like taking risks and these three simple steps jumpstart my journey.


1.     Find a Style Inspo

     Anything can be found if you look for it. Pinterest and Instagram were the easiest options to explore looks that captured my eye. I was very specific in what I was looking for. I searched things such as “bold winter colors”, “colorful winter outfits”, “ colorful winter street style”.  Being specific definitely narrowed my options.

2.     Replicate a Look

     After my research, I discovered that many of the posts that I liked were inspired by European Street Style. Everything about their looks screams carefree, confident and sporty. So, I found a few looks to test and went shopping. I wanted to see what colors worked well with my skin tone, what styles were most flattering to my body type and which styles I could see myself incorporating into my lifestyle.

3.   Incorporate New Pieces With Old Ones

      Again, I love my personal style and many of the pieces in my closet I absolutely love. Though, I wanted to switch up my style, it was important that I would be able to mix and match my signature pieces with my new ones. I didn’t want to buy pieces that could only be worn one way. So I recommend seeing how the new pieces can be combined to pieces you already have to enhance your look.


The Result: Neon Sporty Chic 


By pairing my new neon green puffer coat with my monochromatic mood, I was able to create this sporty yet chic look! I would normally wear a blazer with this turtleneck and leggings but the jacket changes the look completely.

I have a long way to go with achieving my style goals but this experience has been incredible so far!!!
