You're not Taylor Swift stepping out of her New York apartment in 2014 (or even walking this year's Grammys red carpet). Your affinity for the two-piece dress may be left in your boho inspired past, or sitting in a giveaway pile with other quick death trends. But the crop top plus skirt combo that took the cake for best casual, and formal, attire a few years ago has given way to edgier sets in the form of pantsuits and longline silhouettes.The new matching set focuses less on flouncy A-line and skater skirts, in favor of the cooler, slim midi length style. So, don't give up hope on the power of dressing matchy-matchy just yet (who doesn't love an already put-together outfit?). The looks ahead show just how much you still need a two-piece set in your life.
