Don't Be Shy—31 Bold, Colorful Pieces That Will Transform Your Closet
Most Wanted is a weekly series in which one editor, staffer, or influencer shares their top 30 must-haves or current wish-list items.
For most of 2023, I fell into a vicious cycle of letting short-lived fashion trends take over my closet, but the trend I played into the most was quiet luxury. Suddenly, my closet was a sea of neutrals with the occasional pop of color. Don't get me wrong—I still love an elegant and understated outfit, but I want to be more experimental this season. I'm determined to wear bolder outfits with statement necklaces, vibrant hues, color-blocking, and playful accessories. Believe me—the pieces I found below will have me (and you) doing just that.
