1. Color Trends

Pretty In Pink

Pink is having a moment in the fashion world, and we couldn't be more excited! Whether it's a bold hot pink or a delicate pale pink, this color is granted to add a playful and feminine touch to your wardrobe.

We're happy to announce that the bold, daring, unapologetically feminine hot pinks are still going strong even after 2022.

Shades like fuchsia and hot pink are just great for making a statement and standing out in a crowd.

For a look that's both trendy and timeless, look for hot pink suit sets and dresses and pair them with neutral accessories.

Pink, however, is not just for the brash, and daring as the world of fashion is also seeing a lot of pale or pastel pinks. 

These delicate hues are ideal for creating a romantic and ethereal look. Pair them with black or white for a classic touch, yellow or green for a bolder look, or with earthy tones like brown or olive for an unexpected twist.

Make a Green Scene

Get ready to channel your inner nature lover because green is currently in fashion!

This color is the ideal way to add a dash of freshness and a splash of nature to any outfit, coming in everything from mossy greens to olive tones.

First up, let's talk about moss greens. These shades are giving us major boho vibes, and we can't get enough of them!

A mossy green flowy silk dress is the ideal way to elevate your summer wardrobe and look effortlessly chic.

Combine it with some natural woven accessories and you'll be ready to conquer the world (or at least the farmers market).

But that's not all; olive greens are also popular this season.

Olive greens are an excellent alternative to traditional neutral colors such as black, beige, and grey.

We've seen many public figures like the beautiful Victoria Beckham rocking monochromatic olive green fits so we're sure you'll find inspiration easily.

Glam In Sky Blue

Blues have probably always been a fashion stylist favorite for their elegance and versatility, so we're super happy to see them cut the 2023 fashion scene!

Pastel and sky blues have a certain softness and femininity, and they're very easy to style and use in an outfit, from silk dresses and suit sets to florals and relaxed footwear.

With light blues, you can be as chill or as loud as you feel like. 

We've seen them paired with vibrant oranges and muted neutrals; they both looked fantastic!

Shades of Purple

From lavender to plum, designers are incorporating shades of purple in their collections in all sorts of creative ways.

One of the hottest trends this year is the "lilac craze." This pale purple shade is showing up on everything from flowy dresses to statement jackets.

It's the ideal color for transitioning from winter to spring, adding a splash of color to your wardrobe without being too overpowering.

But if you're looking for something a little more daring, the "grape crush" is the trend for you. This deep purple shade is making a splash on the runway and in street style.

It's a bold choice, and when paired with the right pieces, it can make a serious fashion statement.

And let's not forget about everyone's favorite shade of purple: lavender.

This pastel color has been trending for the past few seasons now, and it's not going anywhere. It's the perfect color to add a touch of romance to any outfit.

Sunset Hues

Earthy oranges and bright yellows are taking over the runway and the streets and we're not complaining!

"Burnt orange" trend.

This earthy color is ideal for adding warmth to your wardrobe.

It looks especially stunning when paired with earthy greens and goes well with denim and neutrals.

If you want something a little more daring, the "lemony yellow" trend is for you.

This vibrant color will turn heads and add a pop to any outfit. It's the ideal color to wear on a sunny day or for an instant brightening effect.

2. Design Trends

Ruffle Up Your Wardrobe

Ruffles are another trend that's making a comeback in 2023 and even luxury fashion powerhouses like Louis Vuitton and Saint Laurent are getting in on the trend.

These playful frills add a touch of whimsy to any outfit and can be dressed up or down depending on the occasion.

One of the best things about ruffles is that they come in all shapes and sizes.

You can go for a subtle ruffle on the collar of a blouse or a bold, cascading ruffle on a dress. They can also be found in pants, skirts, and even shoes!

One trend we're loving is the "ruffle sleeve" trend since it adds a dramatic effect and extra oomph to any outfit.

Bold Blooms

Get ready fashion lovers, because florals are taking over the fashion landscape in 2023! This timeless trend is always a favorite during spring and summer, but this year designers are bringing it to new heights by incorporating bolder and more intricate floral patterns.

One of the biggest floral trends we're seeing for 2023 is the use of oversized blooms.

These large, bold flowers are appearing on everything from blouses to dresses, as well as accessories such as ballet flats and handbags.

 Another floral trend that's popping up all over the fashion landscape is the use of mixed prints.

This means pairing a floral top with a geometric skirt or a floral dress with a striped blazer. It's a fun and playful way to incorporate florals into your wardrobe.

Fringed dresses are also getting a floral makeover for 2023.

These flapper-inspired dresses are getting a boho-chic update with the addition of bold and colorful floral patterns.

The fringes add a playful movement to the dress while the floral pattern brings a touch of elegance.

Cargo Pockets

This functional and stylish trend is popping up all over the fashion scene, from cargo pants to jackets, and we're loving the added utility it brings to our outfits.

Cargo Pants

These pants were originally designed for military use but have now become a staple in streetwear and fashion.

Cargo pants are known for their multiple pockets, and this year designers are pushing the boundaries by adding even more pockets and oversized silhouettes.

These pants are perfect for those who are always on the go and need a lot of storage space.

Jackets

Jackets are also getting cargo pockets!

This trend is ideal for those looking to add some utility to their outerwear.

Designers are adding cargo pockets to all types of jackets, from bomber jackets to parkas, making them not only fashionable but also functional.

These pockets are ideal for storing necessities such as keys, wallets, and phones.

Sharp And Sleek

Get ready to sharpen up your style because sleek formal fashion is taking over in 2023!

This trend is all about clean lines, sharp tailoring, and a minimalist aesthetic. From suits to oversized blazers, this trend is perfect for those who want to make a sophisticated statement.

Suits

This classic formal wear is being given a modern update with slim-fit silhouettes and a minimalist aesthetic.

Designers are playing with different textures, colors, and patterns, making suits more versatile than ever before.

From classic black to bold colors and even prints, the possibilities are endless. Suits are perfect for those who want to make a strong impression at work or a formal event.

Oversized Blazers

Oversized blazers are also a part of this sleek formal trend. These blazers are designed to have a loose fit and often have a masculine silhouette.

These blazers can be worn with a pair of jeans for a casual look or dress pants for a more formal look.

Sheerly Chic

Sheer items are the way to go if you want to add some zing to your wardrobe. But, let's be honest, it can be difficult to know what to wear with a see-through top.

Since sheer items are still highly in trend, let's go over some ways to style them without feeling like a walking X-Ray.

Layering sheer Dresses

Layering is your best friend! It is the key to making a sheer dress work for any occasion.

First things first, let's talk undergarments. You can never go wrong with a slip dress or a bodysuit. It's like the cherry on top of an already delicious sundae.

This layering technique not only adds coverage but also creates a layered look that's straight off the runway.

Next, let's talk about adding a touch of cool-girl vibes.

Throw on a denim jacket or a blazer, add a belt, and voila! You've turned your sheer dress into a street-style worthy outfit.

And for those chilly days, layering a sweater or a long-sleeve top over your sheer dress is the perfect solution.

It's like the blanket scarf of your dress collection, it keeps you warm and stylish at the same time.

Sheer Skirts

Let's talk about adding a touch of sophistication.

A blazer or a trench coat can turn your sheer skirt into a fashion-forward look that's perfect for the office or a fancy event.

Leather Luxe

From leather pants to jackets, this trend is perfect for those who want to add a touch of rock-n-roll to their wardrobe.

First things first, let's talk about leather pants. These bad boys are not just for bikers and rock stars anymore.

Designers are giving new life to this classic piece by playing with different cuts, colors, and textures.

Whether you're going for a sleek, skinny fit or a relaxed, wide-leg cut, there are leather pants out there for everyone.

Leather jackets are a wardrobe staple and they're getting a modern update with new cuts and colors.

From bomber jackets to biker jackets, designers are pushing the boundaries with new silhouettes and styles. These jackets are perfect for adding a touch of edge to any outfit.

Denim is Back

A favorite among fashion editors and street style stars alike, denim is back and better than ever in 2023! This classic material is taking over the fashion scene with new styles and cuts.

From distressed denim to low-rise jeans, denim is a must-have for any fashion-forward wardrobe.

One of the biggest denim trends for 2023 is distressed denim.

This edgy look is ideal for injecting personality and a carefree vibe into your ensemble.

Distressed denim is a must-have for anyone who wants to make a statement, whether you're wearing ripped jeans or a denim jacket with frayed edges.

Low-rise jeans are also making a comeback in 2023. These jeans sit lower on the hips, creating a flattering and elongating effect. This style is perfect for showing off your favorite belt or pair of shoes.

Chained to Style

Whether you're heading to a music festival, a night out, or just want to add some edge to your everyday look, body chains, and chainmail items are the way to go in 2023.

So, don't be afraid to experiment and have fun with these metallic pieces.

Gone are the times when you had to match all of your jewelry to the same metal tone.

Combining gold and silver chains creates a one-of-a-kind and fashionable look.

Body chains can be worn over or under clothing, making them versatile and adaptable to any outfit.

Chainmail tops, dresses, and even swimsuits are making a comeback, bringing a touch of medieval elegance to your wardrobe.

On Vacation

Pack your bags because vacation prints are taking over in 2023! This playful trend is perfect for adding a touch of tropical paradise to your wardrobe, whether you're planning a vacation or just dreaming of one.

One of the biggest vacation print trends is the use of tropical prints such as palm trees, pineapples, and hibiscus flowers.

These prints are great for vacation parties, beach outings, and picnics. They can be found on everything from tops to dresses to skirts, as well as accessories such as scarves and bags.

Another trend that's popping up all over the fashion scene is the use of coastal prints such as seashells, starfish, and coral.

These prints are ideal for infusing your look with oceanic and coastal vibes. They're ideal for trips to the beach, family gatherings, and vacation parties.

Pants Party

Gone are the days of skinny jeans and leggings dominating the bottom half of our wardrobes. This year, it's all about wide-legged trousers and dress pants.

These styles are not only comfortable, but they also give off a sophisticated and put-together look.

One of the biggest trends we're seeing in trousers and dress pants is the use of bold, bright colors. Think electric blue, neon green, and fiery red.

These colors are sure to make a statement and add a pop of excitement to any outfit.

Another trend we're seeing is the use of interesting textures and fabrics.

From velvet to corduroy, these fabrics add an element of luxury and richness to any outfit.

But don't worry if bold colors and textures aren't your things. Classic black and navy dress pants are still a staple and will always be in style.

Relaxed in Sports Luxe

Are you ready to rack up some serious style points?

Then you'll want to get in on the sports luxe trend that's sweeping the fashion world. Sports luxe is all about giving athletic wear a high-fashion spin.

Consider sleek track pants with a tailored blazer or a sporty hoodie with a chic skirt. It's the ideal blend of comfort and style.

The use of bold, bright colors and graphic prints is a major trend in sports luxe.

These colors, ranging from neon green to electric blue, will make a statement and add excitement to any outfit.

Graphic prints, such as bold stripes and geometric patterns, are also popular, adding a playful and modern touch.

So, whether you're going to the gym, running errands, or simply looking to upgrade your everyday look in 2023, sports luxe is the way to go.
