6 Cool Ways to Liven Up Your "Boring" Basics in 2020

There’s no doubt that our trusty basics are the bread and butter of our wardrobes (aka they’re always there to solve every fashion dilemma). Sometimes, though, our basics can get, well, a little boring. So how can we liven up our sartorial staples in 2020 to keep our outfits looking fresh and fierce? Below we’ve rounded up some of this year’s biggest trends that can easily be combined with our wardrobe basics to take our look from zero to 100 this year.

These quick and easy additions are sure to reinvigorate your sweaters, jeans, tees, and blazers while imparting a look that is entirely on-trend. From refreshingly cool waistcoats to colorful leather separates to statement embellished shoes, read on to discover the easiest and chicest way to amp up your basics this year.

Whether they’re shoes with chain details, brooches, or chandelier drops, a little embellishment will take your staple skinny jeans to new heights of chic. 

When it comes to jewelry this year, the mantra on the spring 2020 runways seemed to be “the bigger, the better,” especially when it comes to chain-link necklaces. The trend is here to stay for 2020, so invest in a chunky collar, as it’s guaranteed to add major pizzazz to your basic crew-neck sweater.

How do you make that staple check blazer you’ve been wearing on repeat look entirely fresh and cool? Add a waistcoat! The trend was omnipresent on the spring 2020 runways and will undoubtedly add a polished, sharp, and unique touch to your look this year.

Exude major Celine vibes this year and pair your staple dress with a trendy chain belt for a chic look that will take you from day-to-night with ease.

One of our favorite trends of 2019 is here to stay in 2020 and we couldn’t be happier. This time around, leather separates get a more colorful treatment with a plethora of hues—from lilac to khaki green. Pair your basic pair of beige or black pants with a colored leather top for fashion girl–approved look.

Like many of 2020’s jewelry trends, this year’s bag trends also follow the “go big or go home” principle. Keep all your everyday essentials in a supersize tote for an easy, modern touch.

Make a strong statement with your outfits this year and go for big, bold gold hoops to liven up your basic tops. These were seen all over the spring 2020 runways.

I Tried the Viral One-Leg Jeans, and I Got Plenty of Stares

If you're into fashion and an avid TikTok scroller, you've probably come across the viral and somewhat controversial Coperni one-leg jeans . People who got their hands on them are asking followers how they should style them - and even whether or not they should keep them. Those who are still on a waitlist or are simply curious about the trend are going so far as to DIY the jeans by taking a scissor to one leg of an old pair. I, on the other hand, dared to step into the Romeo Hunte Black One Leg Pant ($232, originally $725), an alternative take on the same silhouette that's even more eye-catching (which, how is that possible?). These jeans were, without a doubt, one of the most polarizing looks I've ever worn - and I've tried some pretty divisive clothing, from Skims butt-enhancing shapewear to the brand's famous push-up nipple bra , and many a sheer naked dress . After wearing the jeans around town to run errands and obviously attracting some attention (st...

Oh, to Be Pedro Pascal's Sparkly Cardigan

Never have we been more envious of an inanimate object than when Pedro Pascal stepped out in a sparkly cardigan this week. As soon as we saw him walking the streets of London wearing the glittery knit, we longed to swap places with it - to be enrobing the heartthrob, catching the attention of random passersby, sparking internet discourse, and ultimately taking responsibility for his style breakout. Pascal has been serving look after look while promoting " The Last of Us " season one and "The Mandalorian" season three this year, working with stylists Julie Ragolia and Fabio Immediato . His latest came on Feb. 23 when he arrived to a radio interview wearing the shiny cardigan in question: a long button-down sweater made of silver foil yarn and created by menswear label 4SDesigns. He layered it over a sheer brown tank top and finished the look with black pants, leather boots, and his usual chunky-framed glasses. Just one day prior, the actor stopped by a photo call...
