Spring is right around the corner, and with style trends shifting throughout the year, this season brings a whole new lookbook. This year is all about chunky, big pieces and making a statement. Minimalism and simplicity is out, and most people are thrilled to see it. Footwear is a key aspect of this spring’s fashion trends, with platform sandals, thick-soled sneakers and sculptural heels taking center stage.
Bags are getting bigger, too, with tote bags and slouchy oversized purses becoming must-have items. Chunky jewelry like oversized earrings and layered necklaces are here to spice up simple outfits and make fashion easier.
This season is all about people who like to experiment with fashion and branch out of their comfort zones. It is all about playing with different textures and adding more color and vibe to your closet. Fashion is such a key aspect of people’s characteristics and who they are as people. What you wear and how you wear it can speak loudly to the people around you and if you know how to do it right it can help you stand out in any room you walk into
Prepare for a closet clean out and freshen up your looks with these top five spring fashion trends.
Chunky jewelry
The most recent trend on this list is chunky and layered necklaces. The brand Scandivv recently became famous on TikTok for its bold, ostentatious pieces. The brand was started up by a young woman in Sweden who makes and sells these fun, chunky necklaces and makes her own tops as well. These jewelry statement pieces add so much to a simple outfit, making it easier to dress down, especially in warmer weather.
High and big boots
This trend is a return from last summer. You will definitely see a lot of influencers pairing a chunky boot with a denim skirt or micro shorts this spring and summer. This trend may not be practical for the heat, but it’s a nice change of pace from the time-honored sneakers and shorts uniform of summer. You can find a lot of these looks on Steve Madden and Frye.
Western wear
This trend has been on the cusp for a while now, but it’s finally receiving the recognition it deserves this spring. This trend is another form of the style above, but with cowgirl boots, denim on denim and a whole lot of fringe.
Preppy
This spring, you will find yourself surrounded by blue stripes, linen and possibly a few sweaters wrapped about people’s shoulders. This trend is perfect for the warmer weather with its light and loose style. Looking cute in a hot classroom just got a whole lot easier. This style has been seen previously, but coming in fresh this spring is the comeback of tennis skirts for a classic country club look.
Sequins and ruffles
The sequins trend was seen all over the internet during spring break as photos of tanned vacationers in sparkly mini skirts and flowy tops circulated social media feeds. You can easily pair a sequin skirt with a basic outfit. Many of these viral pieces can be found on Peppermayo, a popular Australian brand at the moment. White tanks have appeared to be the most trendy base for these sequined pieces, often accented with a chunky necklace.
This spring is all about statement pieces for less effort. Ruffles are more of an incoming trend, but will mostly be seen on tops paired with jeans. As fashion is changing over the seasons, these trends are showing us a shift toward embracing your true self and creativity. Whether it’s the boldness of sequins, the classiness of preppy attire or the funky charm of western wear, there is a place for anyone.
Spring 2025 is about stepping outside of the ordinary and celebrating fashion as a form of self-expression. So, get ready to make a statement and refresh your wardrobe with these must-have styles!
