And truly, there’s no better time to do this than at the end of a year when we can all be left a little unsure of how to dress from January 1st. As we look ahead to 2023, it can help us relish in our wardrobes again, rediscovering what we already have and what might be good to invest in.

Some show ways to incorporate 2023’s more difficult trends into your wardrobes easily, like leather pieces or making Y2K trends more wearable. And if you do find there are gaps in your own collection, we’ve added in shopping inspiration below too.
