2025 Fashion Trends: Spring Trend Report
Spring is blooming, and you know what that means – it's time to talk trends! I've been keeping a close eye on what's hot, what's sticking around, and what's peeking around the corner. So, let's dive into the 2025 Spring Trends, broken down into three easy-to-digest categories: Current, Emerging, and Continuing.
A Friendly Reminder: Trends Are Suggestions, Not Rules
Before you start feeling overwhelmed by all these exciting trends, I want to remind you of my core philosophy: you don't have to try every single trend! My goal in sharing these insights is to keep you trend-informed, not trend-obsessed.
Fashion should be fun and empowering, not stressful. It's perfectly okay to pick and choose the trends that resonate with your personal style and lifestyle. Some trends might be a perfect fit, while others might not align with your taste at all – and that's absolutely fine!
Think of this report as a menu of options. From there, it's entirely up to you whether or not you want to incorporate any of these trends into your wardrobe. Use this information to inspire your own creativity and create a style that feels authentically you.

Pastels
Spring just screams pastels, doesn't it? From soft lavender to pale pink to mint green, these gentle hues are everywhere. They're perfect for adding a touch of sweetness to your wardrobe without being overly girly.

Shop Exaggerated Proportions:
Super Wide Leg Pant: A super wide leg trouser like this looks incredible paired with a cropped jacket or cardigan.
Oversized Blazer: I'm a huge fan of an oversized blazer. Wear it with jeans to feel casual but elevated, or pair it with the matching pants for a full suit look.
Elevated Athleisure
We're still loving our comfy clothes, but now they're getting a serious upgrade. Think sleek tracksuits, tailored joggers, and luxe sneakers. It's about looking put-together while feeling comfortable.

Lululemon High-Rise Trousers: A trouser that looks fabulous but feels like a sweatpant.
Knit Cardigan: This sweater is adorable and also very wearable. Throw this on after exercise to look put together all day!

These are the perfect accessory for adding a touch of elegance to any outfit. Tie them around your neck, your handbag, or even wear them as a hair accessory. They're so versatile!

Silky Waves Slip Skirt: I LOVE the pattern on this slip skirt. The colors play together nicely and give it a really pretty drape.
Layered Sequin Slip Skirt: This skirt is AMAZEBALLS!!! I love that its short and you can see a lot of leg through it and the sparkle has a bunch of different colors.
East-West Bags
Say goodbye to your standard tote! East-west bags, those with a wider horizontal shape, are the "it" bag of the season. They're stylish, practical, and add a modern touch to any look.
Shop East-West Bags:
Nova Shoulder Bag: A fabulous pop of color to add to any outfit.

Shop Coats/Jackets:
Arlen Dickey Coat: I LOVE this and it’s selling out fast!
Bubble-Sleeve Jean Bomber: This denim bomber is everything!!!
