As seasons change and 2020 comes, thankfully, to a close, there's still one thing that we can all look forward to--this season's latest must-have trends. Although many of us may be struggling to find out-of-the-house, style-worthy special occasions, who says we can't end off our year from the comfort of our own homes in style? Whether a walk in the park, a living room movie night, a socially distant brunch date or this week's grocery trip, these are eight must-wear trends that will keep you looking your best this season, as we walk away from 2020.
The bib collar

I've seen just about every version of the bold, yet timeless bib collar, from ruffle trim, to lace trim, to patterned and even, detachable. No matter what version you find most fits your style, this collar is an easy way to add an eye-catching embellishment to any top, dress or sweater this winter.
Shackets, shackets...and more shackets!
Helena Perray
The lovechild of your favorite shirt and jacket, shackets are taking the industry by storm for the second season in a row. Their over-sized fit and bold pattern options are here to keep you warm and modish this season.
The classic puffed sleeve
Helena Perray
Puffed sleeves are no secret to the fashion world, rearing their head as one fashion trend that, truly, may never die. And this season is no exception. In fact, it seems the bigger the sleeve, the better, adding a little volume to any basic look.
The bolder the better!
Helena Perray
It looks like the mundaneness of the upcoming winter months is being remedied by bold patterns and vibrant hues of red. From flirtatious leopard print to classic polka dots, this season we're bringing every look to life with show-stopping patterns, sure to make a statement that won't go unnoticed. Goodbye solids, hello florals and plaids!
Sweater vests, yes please!
Helena Perray
This season we're kicking it old school, bringing back the classic 70's sweater vest. This sleeveless, timeless piece is the perfect addition to your wardrobe, adding, both, style and warmth to your closet this winter. From cropped cable knit, to v-neck and everything in between, sweater vests are the best thing you can throw over any basic look for an added layer of style.
Doc Martens and grandpa loafers
Helena Perray
Doc Martens have yet again made their way into this season's top trends, or maybe they never found their way out. Serving as our staple footwear favorite for over seven decades, this classic black leather loafer, along with just about every other chunky, grandpa-style loafer, is a no-brainer when it comes to styling your favorite pieces this winter. From animal print, to bold colors--from jeans to mini-skirts, this shoe is your go-to.
Over-sized jeans
Helena Perray
It looks like, at least for now, that skinny jeans have said their farewells, and oversized denim is the new fitted. With a relaxed, baggier fit, this new wave for denim is not only on-trend, but far more comfortable. Paired with loafers, heels, sneakers or booties--the oversized jeans are here to stay, and I'm not complaining.
Monochromatic everything!
Helena Perray
Something about monochromatic fashion is highly satisfying, I like to believe, both for those of us wearing it and those of us witnessing it. This season, we're matching our looks together with similar hues and tones of our favorite colors. This trend is simple and clean-cut, yet just as bold as any other pattern-mixing fashion moment.
