Ready, set, refresh. Chase away a case of the dreadful January blues with a fresh look that challenges you to step outside your comfort zone. And where better to turn for inspo than the Spring 2019 catwalk — a pretty good indicator of all the polarizing fashion trends to come. Bike shorts and man-repelling tool belts? Hell to the yes. Swipe through for the craziest, most WTF-worthy looks that you'll be shopping (and wearing) in 2019.
Next-Level Tie-Dye: Who knew that the trippy psychedelic tie-dye prints from your summer camp days could look this glam? Prada's souped-up babydoll dress brings the coquettish flair. (Photo via Victor Virgile/Getty)
Rhode Resort Ella Dress in Tie Dye ($395): T-minus how many days until spring break? Rhode Resort's boho-fabulous tie-dye print frock 100 percent calls for unlimited fun in the sun.
Two-Tone Clothing: When one color won't do, rev up the drama with two-toned clothing that's made to be worn loud and proud. Marc Jacobs took this season's revamped color-blocking trend to theatrical heights with an '80s-esque pastel-hued co-ord featuring exaggerated shoulders. (Photo via Randy Brooke/WireImage)
Warehouse Two-Tone Belted Midi Dress ($103): Hit your stride with a color-spliced midi dress that successfully mixes business with pleasure.
High-Impact Sleeves: Go big or go home. Fluted-sleeve blazers in a medley of fluoro bright hues — as seen at Prabal Gurung — are already poised to be a hot ticket item for spring. (Photo via Victor Virgile/Getty)
Style Mafia Langora Blazer ($159): This exaggerated bell-sleeve blazer isn't just for the brave. Test it out with a pair of Levi's 501s for a pared-down ensemble.
Crochet: Stranded on Gilligan's Island? Nah, it's just Salvatore Ferragamo's exotic take on crochet. The look of the season is less granny, more elevated haute hippie. (Photo via Yanshan Zhang/Getty)
Free People Pretty Pointelle Pant ($148): A pair of these Ibiza-bound striped crochet pants will fit the bill just fine for a warm-weather getaway this winter.
Neon Snakeskin: Follow in Off-White's direction and run wild with a traffic-stopping acid green snakeskin print that covers you from head to toe. (Photo via Francois Guillot/Getty)
Bershka Snakeskin Print Dress ($26): Just add heavy-duty stompers, and this neon snakeskin print bodycon dress can do no wrong.
Sheer Delight: Two words: sheer drama. Overtly sexy see-through blouses and celestial-inspired dresses (peekaboo undergarments included) encapsulated Saint Laurent's spring collection to a T. (Photo via Victor Virgile/Getty)
Choosy Greenwich Shirt ($65): Add this intentionally oversized sheer blouse to your after-hours wardrobe for a risqué statement.
Bike Shorts: No longer relegated to spin class, high-waisted bike shorts were the real style MVP of Milan Fashion Week. Maybe it was Bella Hadid's runway prowess, or perhaps it was her waist-cinching tool belt that won us over. (Photo via Andreas Rentz/Getty)
Topshop Cycling Shorts ($15): Adopt a DGAF vibe beyond the gym with these high-performance cycling shorts anchoring your look alongside a fanny and chunky dad trainers.
