Summer is around the corner and I’m already looking forward to summer fashion! I love the easy, laid-back feel of dressing for warm weather and the looks for this summer are all about being relaxed, carefree, and boho chic. I’ve rounded up the top 10 trends along with a few of my picks in case you’re like me and getting a head start on stocking your wardrobe for the months to come (or just live in Texas and it’s already feeling like summer)!
- Coral Dresses: Dresses are in constant rotation for me in the summertime as they’re just so easy to throw on and go. For the summertime though, I opt for warm bright colors and coral is definitely a go-to. This coral dress is absolutely stunning and I’m crossing my fingers it’ll get re-stocked!
- Exposed Shoulder: I’ve also seen off-shoulder / cold shoulder styles everywhere and love the subtle show of skin. This off-shoulder top is my fave as I love the blue color and print mix (only $34 too!) and also just ordered this dress with the shoulder cut-outs (another similar style).
- Lace; Lace is also a trend that is perfect for a feminine, delicate look and the sheer fabric just makes it idea for hot summer days. I just ordered this one but also love this pretty dress option (that’s on 40% off sale and also has a drop shoulder look!).
- Fringe: Fringe is really taking center stage this summer and it’s just perfect for adding swing and movement to a simple look. The ’70s look is definitely coming back and I’m anxious to try out more boho chic styles myself. This one is currently on my wishlist but this one has such beautiful crochet detail too!
- Beaded Bracelets: This accessory is the perfect way to complete any beachy, summery outfit! Love this pretty gold / blue set as well as this stone set in either white or turquoise!
- Gladiator Sandals: These shoes have been making a statement for a few summers now and it’s a trend that’s here to stay! Stuart Weitzman and Valentino both made their iconic pairs but for a more budget-friendly option I’m loving this knee-high option and this pair for a subtle ankle-high option.
- Vintage High Waist Jeans: The high-waisted jeans look is slowly catching on and it’s actually a great way to accentuate curves and to create a lengthy leg look. Paired with the flare leg trend that’s also coming back, it’s a perfect ’70s style (shop options here)!
- Silk Blouses: There’s nothing better than a silky top to take you from the office to happy hour! They’re perfect paired with pants or skirts and can be worn alone or under a blazer for a casual, cool summer look. I just order this tie-neck halter blouse and love the different options here as well.
- Bucket Bags: I just picked up my first bucket bag (only $36!) a couple weeks ago and love how effortlessly they add that casual boho vibe to any look. Mine is pretty small but if you’re looking for a bigger one, this one and this one are both beautiful (more options)!
- Pineapple Print: Nothing says summer quite like a big ol’ pineapple! From tees to skirts to phone cases, you can’t go wrong wearing this summer fruit!
