From pearl hair accessories to loungewear as daywear (see: slip skirts and dresses), it was the perfect way to close out the decade. Now the time has come to shift our focus to 2020, and if you're anxious to know what trends are on the horizon, just look at Banana Republic's website — especially the new arrivals section. Some of the first things we noticed: interesting sleeves of all sorts (puffy and oversize, in particular), vintage-inspired statement earrings, and big, bold plaids. We also spotted a handful of Instagram-favourite trends (cropped cardigans, anyone?). If you're ready to start shopping them, just keep scrolling. Ahead, we've rounded up our favourite trendy pieces that will help you start off 2020 on a very stylish note.
