Summer is just around the corner, bringing a shift from minimalist winter fashion to bold colors and expressive styles. Whether you’re heading to the beach or exploring a new city, these are the must-try fashion trends that will define the season.
Sports Jerseys
Soccer jerseys are making a major comeback this summer, blending sporty, Y2K and street-style aesthetics. These jerseys can be styled in everyday wear for a casual yet trendy fashion look. This trend pairs well with long denim shorts, mini shorts or jeans. To diversify outfits, the jersey can be styled like an oversized t-shirt or tied to make it cropped.

Sequins! Sequins! Sequins!
Sequin skirts, dresses and tops are a huge trend surfacing this spring and going into the summer.

Pair a colorful sequin skirt with a classic white tank or style a textured sequin top with a white skirt—the styling options are endless.

Matching sets became a popular trend in the past year.

Whether you opt for neutral tones or bold statement colors, these coordinated outfits are perfect for a beach day or a day spent exploring the town.

Statement jewelry became a major trend over the past year, but this summer you should expect to see more beach and summer jewelry designs.

Pair the charm necklace with a basic white tank and sequin skirt or a monochromatic piece for the perfect summer look.
