T-minus 66 days until the start of 2022. Are you ready? If you're anything like me, the answer is probably no, but that doesn't mean your closet can't be prepared for the beginning of a new year. Taking inspiration from both runways and street style, I settled on six major color trends that will be all over the fashion scene next year. 

For instance, Proenza Schouler and Ganni are advocating for a very specific shade of orange for 2022, while Valentino and Lanvin are all in with a royalty-inspired hue that's fit for a princess. I also included two color combos that will make you look instantly on-trend next year. Shop my colorful picks below.
