Fashion resolution #1: Wow the world with statement earrings

It can feel like there’s plenty going on with statement earrings, and there is. The trick is to keep everything else simple. Take a pared-back approach and team tasseled or long bejewelled numbers with denim or other low key looks.

Fashion resolution #2: Go for maximum volume on sleeve detailing

The fluted sleeve takes a back seat for now with the puffed sleeve fashion’s new favourite. If adding volume on top, streamline below to create a stylish contrast.

Fashion resolution #3: Wear more white

While black might be an easy go to, white is the colour that will make you stand out from the crowd. It can be a bit tricky to manage but as a fresh alternative, it cannot be beat.

Fashion resolution #4: Applique everything

Applique on denim looks incredible and with a current trend towards all things handmade and hippie, a raid on craft shops should give you all you need to create your own very cool style statement.

Fashion resolution #5: Go ahead and get your hands on some Gucci

To say that Gucci is having a major moment is the understatement of the year. If you invest in just one piece in 2017, make it Gucci.

Fashion resolution #6: Try the colour of 2017 Greenery

On the face of it this colour looks like it could be a tough one to pull off. But, even so, it’s still a great green and soon it’s going to be seen everywhere. Why not take a fashion risk, and just give it a go. It’s a colour that stands for optimism, and a little shot of this could be just what we all need right now.

Fashion resolution #7: Rock a dress over jeans

Half-hearted attempts at this style won’t serve. If you are going to try this trend, find a gorgeous statement dress in fabric that falls well. The key to making this look work it to wear the dress more as a coat. Layer up underneath or wear buttoned up to the waist, just make sure to keep the rest of the dress open.

Fashion resolution #8: Ban yourself from black this winter

While you might already have the perfect black winter coat, put it aside for a season. Instead look for a coat that’s colourful and bright and shake off those seasonal blues.

Fashion resolution #9: Forget oversized, the mini bag is where it’s at

It might be hard to imagine everything you need fitting in to such a small bag, but distill it down and you’ll not only look cooler, you’ll be eliminating all the clutter as well.

Fashion resolution #10: Rock the colour block

Nothing says completely confident like colour blocking. The best thing about this trend is it’s not defined by a seasonal colour as such, choose what you love, add a contrasting pop – a bag, shoes or sunglasses – and you’re good to go.
