Summer is right around the corner and with an abundance of trends emerging from both the runways as well as your ever-shifting social media feeds, how are you to know what’s worth skipping and what’s worth coveting? I’ve got you covered.
From biker shorts to fanny packs, these are the 14 style essentials to know and covet for Summer 2019.
Biker Shorts- Chanel did it so that means bike shorts are official, right? Right. The ’80s bike short trend is here to stay for summer. No bike required.
Lavender – Searching for the next “it” color that isn’t neon? Look no further—it’s lavender
Tie Dye- You don’t have to go full-hippie to participate. This trends is upbeat and casual
Animal/western print- Leopard print is forever, but zebra, tiger and even cow-hide prints are now. Embrace the print by clashing them with bold, saturated hues. Don’t be scared!
A pop of neon- Go bright or go home! Yep, it’s still a thing! The electric hues were seen all over the runways, fluorescent shades are here to stay.
Puff Sleeves- Whether you’re a minimalist who prefers to pack a subtle statement or a maximalist who likes to push the boundaries of eye-catching style, this 2019 fashion trend promises to deliver a puffy sleeve piece that fits your aesthetic.
Utility- It’s the ultimate one-step dressing option. It is efficient, comfortable, cool and stylish. These lightweight layers are ideal for hot days that need coverage from the dangerous rays .
Ruching- – AKA gathered fabric for texture -was a hallmark trend in ’80s fashion. Perfect for every body shape.
Asymmetrical neck lines- PSA: One shoulder is the new off-the-shoulder.
Fanny Pack- They’ve completely replaced the crossbody and are way more versatile than the tote or the hobo. They compliment a blazer and can also be worn over a dress to cinch in the waist.
Transparent- go clear with your favorite designers- Chanel gave the trend its seal of approval with its spring/summer collection.
X-girl sunglasses – Sunglasses are arguably the one item that can make or break your entire summer wardrobe. Think about it: If you’ve settled on the perfect pair that makes a statement but still somehow goes with everything, it will take your look from zero to 100.
Fringe- reworked the classic western detail into modern, everyday wear.
Floral Print- Nothing says summer quite like florals. They’re the easiest thing to pack, throw on and go — and then wear again, and again, and again. It’s a no-brainer.
