And just like that, we're officially one week into December and THAT much closer to the end of the year. While we countdown to new beginnings and fresh starts in 2013, we're recapping our favorite style moments from 2012. We're hitting all the important areas we can before our speakers start playing Auld Lang Syne. From celebrity nail art to magazine covers, Instagram selfies to facial hair and everything in between!
It's one thing for individuals to have exemplary style. (*ACHEM* If you haven't voted in our Readers' Choice: Best Dressed of 2012 poll yet, you should probably do that!) But it's another thing entirely for a band (of multiple people!) to pull off individual outfits but still look cohesive. With the epic resurgence of boy bands (thanks, One Direction and The Wanted!) and plenty of OG comeback stories, the well-dressed ensemble group was not that rare a thing this year. Thus, we bring you the best band style of 2012.

I mean, OBVIOUSLY. The dudes of 1D have become the very definition of this era of boy band style. They may coordinate like the groups of old, but their look is fresh because rather than wearing carbon copies of the same outfit five times over, they pick a color scheme and try to create unique looks around that, paying special attention to ensure variety (e.g. only one red pant, multiple red shirts are permitted if one is printed, someone MUST wear suspenders, etc.).
