Spring Fashion Trends On The Rise
As spring approaches, new fashion trends are on the rise. We have already seen some trendy clothing pieces in stores and being worn by social media influencers. Some of the most popular trends this spring are floral skirts and dresses, hand bags, matching sets, sweatshorts, pastel colors and ribbed clothing.
Floral dresses and skirts became pretty popular last summer and are coming back for the spring. Clothing brands like American Eagle and Pacsun have already dropped new spring lines with trendy dresses and skirts. Most of the floral skirts and dresses have ruffles and are pretty flowy, which is great for spring and summer.
Handbags have also gotten more and more popular over the past year because they are great accessories to add to an outfit. A lot of people have been styling smaller purses in pastel or neutral colors. Others are carrying larger, floral print bags that can be brought to the beach or can just serve as an extra place to carry items. Both bags are trending right now and will definitely continue to be popular throughout the summer.
Another trend this year that will continue into the spring is matching sets. Matching sets have been in style for the past year now and they range from leggings and tank tops to sweatpants and sweatshirts. The monochrome trend will definitely continue for a while longer because it is stylish in any season of the year. Some brands that have become more well known for their matching sets are Set Active and GymShark.
Along with matching sets, sweatshorts are getting popular this spring. Clothing brands like American Eagle and Urban Outfitters are releasing clothing lines with sweatshorts because they are so trendy. Social media influencers and celebrities have been seen wearing sweatshorts in their outfits. Sweatshorts serve as a great addition to an outfit because they are way more comfortable than jean shorts, but can still be styled more than regular athletic shorts.
This spring, pastel colors are making a comeback. Colors like sage green, lilac, pale yellow and blush are very trendy right now. Clothing companies are releasing a variety of shirts, skirts and dresses in pastel colors. The colors match well with other clothing pieces and will look great for spring.
Lastly, ribbed clothing is in style right now. Companies like Garage, Aeropostale and Urban Outfitters are releasing ribbed tank tops and workout tops. These tank tops are super soft and comfortable which will be great for the spring and even the summer. Other fashionable, ribbed clothing items are leggings, short sleeves and dresses.
