While the weather outside may still be frightful, shopping for springtime is always delightful. Spring fashion is fun because it’s a chance to rip off the constrictive layers of winter wear and enjoy more colorful and playful patterns and styles. While sprucing up your look is always a good idea, the best time to do it is when the seasons change. Whether you’re revamping your existing wardrobe or are looking for fun additions to your current spring collection, keep reading for the biggest spring trends you should add to cart today, not abandon and check out ASAP.
Distinguished Denim
We’ve seen so much variation in denim trends over the last few years. Are skinnies in or out? Do we wear high-rise jeans now or low-rise as a nod to the continuing Y2K trend on runways? For this spring, the devil is in the details when it comes to denim. There are no rules, from denim skirts with lace-up sides, embellished and tailored denim jackets, or even two-tone denim. The only rule is to opt for more detail and thoughtfulness in your denim products versus the traditional mid-wash or basic distressing.
Long Lengths
Though springtime is synonymous with warmer weather, the longer the length, the better this season. From floor-length denim maxi skirts to flowing and brightly colored maxi dresses, the longer, the better. If you’re petite, this trend may feel intimidating, but pair these long pieces with wedges to make the look work in your favor. Spring is transitional weather with chilly mornings and warmer days, so long straight-leg, flared, or baggy denim is another perfect way to stay comfortable and on-trend.
Lingerie Bodysuits
Bodysuits have been having a moment for a while now, but bring a floral and lacy twist to your bodysuits that are perfect for spring. A lingerie bodysuit that features feminine details pairs perfectly with an oversized blazer tucked into a pair of high-waisted jeans or maxi skirts. The sky’s the limit in the ways that you can style a bodysuit, so use lingerie versions of this wardrobe staple the way you have been, but invest in the detail of the lingerie versions. If you haven’t purchased bodysuits yet, these will be a game changer for their versatility in everyday outfits and doubling as sexy intimates to enjoy alone or with a partner.
Slinky Drapes
Whether you’re a maxi skirt in spring or more of a dress wearer, this year, the flattering, slinky, and drapey trend are what everyone will be wearing. While the last two years saw silk maxi dresses on everyone from runways to bridal parties and even garden parties, they’re being kicked up a notch with draping and ruching. They’re flattering on virtually every body type and, with their delicate nature, are still perfect for spring, even in more muted or darker colors if that’s your speed.
Sheer Joy
Spring can bring true and sheer joy as you see the sun emerge, the weather warm, and flowers begin to emerge. Emerge from your winter cocoon by adopting the trend of sheer tops this spring. Even if your style leans modest, you can still wear this trend either with a camisole underneath or a nude or blush bra. Sheer tops look great in an oversized cut with on-trend linen trousers or flare jeans. You can also take a more elevated sheer blouse and pair it with a high-waisted skirt or trousers for a work-appropriate style.
More is More Handbags
Size doesn’t always matter, but when it comes to your handbags this spring, more is definitely more. The fun thing with spring handbags is that you can stick with classic black and browns in spring if you opt for a fun design, and with large handbags in, this makes for easy work. Look for large handbags with bows, creative structure design, and bold colors – two huge colors this spring are crimson red and kelly green.
There are other trends you can play with during this season of refreshment and renewal, like red shoes (whether sneakers or heels), pinstriping on your pants, blazers, and vests, as well as romantic details like crochet, frayed edges, and lace. Overall, the above spring trends are the breath of fresh air we’ve been waiting for all winter – add them all to your cart today and check out!
