6 Outdated Color Trends to Retire in 2020—and 6 to Wear Instead

We've just entered the season of wearing nothing but coats, sweaters, and ankle boots on repeat. Although our dead-of-winter wardrobes are heavy on the black, we're taking a moment to look ahead at all the glorious color trends that await us in 2020. I don't know about you, but there's nothing like an excellent power color to beat the winter blues. So before you fall back on your black-on-black ensembles, get inspired by the fashion colors you're going to see a lot more of in the coming year and a few that look to be on their way out.

How do I know that the below six fashion colors are going to trend next year? I tapped a handful of fashion girls who, in my mind, have mastered the art of wearing color. They always manage to create the most masterful color combinations in their outfits and are first to test out the latest buzzy shade before anyone else. According to their intel, we might just be (finally) saying goodbye to the neon and lime greens that reigned supreme and instead look to softer sherbert-inspired hues and bold primaries.

So without further ado, keep scrolling to read about the fashion color to retire and wear instead, according to the stylish women who say so.

"I’ve been retiring a lot of my neon pieces lately as I’ve seen them a lot and I’m a bit tired of them, the only place I want to see neon is on my nails."

"Even though I’m all about bright colors, I’m very excited to start wearing more neutral tones as I’m preparing to transition into fall. Rich terra-cotta browns, dark yellows and deep greys are all I’m looking for at the moment. Of course I will be wearing these neutrals with a fun color pop in the form of a cool handbag or a funky shoe."

"I was so into tangerine last summer and tried to find ways to incorporate it into my fall wardrobe as well, but this season, it feels a tad too bright compared to most of the trending colors."

"Chocolate brown is definitely going to be my go-to hue this fall. I love how rich and warm it looks whether worn alone or as a head-to-toe chocolatey look."

"I think that with what has happened in the world this year it has changed the fashion industry. A lot of designers are now pushing against the static structure of seasons and trends, and I think it's a good thing. Time for timeless dressing and wearing colors which make you feel good."

"Every fall, those deep tones always work their way back into the fashion scene, they’re nostalgic. And with the weather here in London starting to turn a little colder I’ve already noticed my eyes wandering to those deeper hued items."

"A color I’m passing on is anything neon. Don’t get me wrong, I really do aesthetically still have a soft spot for these hues that dominated the past few seasons, but it just feels so tired for me now."

"A color I’m excited for in 2020 is cerulean blue! It’s a color I haven’t really played with much ever, and I’m excited to incorporate it via pops of color or even a nice monochrome moment."

"All greens in the camo print. I personally have never liked that palette of greens, and I try not to wear it."

"Orange. I think that because I’m really into colors, I’m attracted to the ones that make you feel happy. And orange is such a happy and warm color. I love every palette around the orange color and I love mixing it with green—that I’ve been wearing a lot for a while."

"I think I'm passing on lime green this season. I really tried my best to get into it, but honestly have found it so hard to wear with my skin tone. I have olive undertones, and the lime green just brings them out in an unflattering way. I love the way it looks on others, but unfortunately, it's just not for me."

"Okay, this sounds so plain, but I really love navy blue right now. I used to write it off as a why would I wear navy blue when I could just wear black, but wow the combinations are infinite with navy blue. I love it with a dusty pink and then some kind of small neon accessory, or monochromatic different shades of blue, or paired with black pants. I just love how dimensional and interesting and unexpected it can look. The color has really been inspiring me lately. "

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...
