New York Fashion Week is here, and so are the upcoming trends for the spring/summer 2025 season. Love! This means we have a whole new color palette to fall in love with. Thankfully Pantone has released their seasonal color trend report from the runways of New York Fashion Week. These are the top ten colors designers used from Pantone on their spring/summer 2025 runways, and also the top five neutral hues.

I am loving the shades of blue and green as well as the neutral hues. The overall palette offers soft versions of traditional spring and summer hues, which I love. Even the neutral colors have nods of blue in them, love that!

What do you think of the spring/summer 2025 color trends from the New York Fashion Week runways?

Fall 2024 handbag trends

We are in luck this fall 2024 season! The handbag trends are building on what many of us already have in our closet from recent seasons. So, if you have had your eye on a handbag, you still have time to snap it up and move it from your wish list to your wardrobe. Love that!

Fall 2024 is all about the anonymous handbag. We are looking at a surge in north/south totes and east/west satchels. The color palette is traditional with neutral hues, black, olive, burgundy/maroon, and winter white. Logo’s are still staying stored in the back of our closets, and high quality, simple silhouettes are reigning supreme.

When it comes to handbags, look for a color or colors you feel will blend with the majority of your closet. Investing in a dark red or olive-type green will give you a traditional handbag you will wear every fall season. So, don’t feel guilty getting an autumn hue, it will have longevity!

The handbag trends we are seeing for the fall 2024 are also perfect investment handbags. Since they are not trendy or fleeting colors, they can stay in our wardrobe for years and get continued use. The silhouettes are also timeless and should give us a lot of wear right now and as we move into the new year. None of these styles are hyper-trendy, so we don’t need to worry about spending money on a new bag for fall. Love that!

Speaking of spending money, the hottest brands, designers and styles right now won’t break the bank. You can get an IT style for under $1000. In fact, emerging designers and relatively unknown brands are having a moment. So, investing in a high-quality bag with a simple, chic silhouette is hot right now. Of course, brands such as Coach, Mansur Gavriel, and Songmont are also continuing to be hot right now too. Love!

Fall 2024 nail polish trends

The fall 2024 nail polish collections are here! This means we have new trends in nail polish colors for the autumn season. Love!

This fall season, we are seeing a mix of color types for nail polish. The biggest trend seems to be the iridescent nail polish trend. Iridescent nail polish offers a clean and clear nail polish with an iridescent sheen, giving it an interesting look while keeping the nails neutral and light. This is good news for anyone working in a conservative work environment. You can wear this sheer, iridescent nail polish and stay under the radar while rocking a hot fall trend. Love that!

In addition to iridescent nail polish, traditional fall colors are hot for the 2024 season. We are seeing rich chocolate browns, traditional berry hues, fall greens, and varying shades of brown and tan. These colors tend to offer a neutral palette for the fall season since they play well with classic autumn hues. I am loving chocolate brown, and that beautiful berry hue pictured above.

While not particularly avant-garde, pastels are the envelope-pushing color family for fall 2024 nail polish. Pastel blue is the hottest light-colored hue, but other pastels are worthy too. Pick your favorite pastel and go with it.

I love all the variations of fall 2024 nail polish colors this autumn season. There really is a color family for everyone! Which fall 2024 nail polish trend is your favorite?
