Summer is fast approaching! This means we are all lightening up fabrics and brightening up our color palettes. I love this bright pink tee for summer. It looks fabulous with shorts, denim skirts, and jeans on cooler days. I also love that it is on sale!

A denim jacket is perfect in the summer since it is lightweight and matches almost any casual look. This one is a classic that will last for years. Love!

We all need a fabulous handbag this summer season! Whether you want a classic neutral, or a fun, bright hue, there is a handbag for you! This summer season look for hobo bags, soft and squishy bags, and straw bags.

What are you loving for summer right now?

spring street style trends

The weather is heating up! This means freshening up our wardrobes with lighter pieces so we can get through these warmer days. This lightweight dress is perfect as we move into summer temperatures. It can be worn casually with sandals or sneakers, or dressed up with flats or a low heel. It also comes in tons of colors! I am picking up another one for the summer season. Love this dress!

There are so many handbag trends this year, it can be overwhelming and hard to keep up! You can jump on the early 2000s bandwagon and pull a bag out from your archives, or go for a small bag such as this convertible handbag or this fabulous IT bag by Balenciaga. Of course, a classic satchel which has been on department stores best seller list for over a decade is always fabulous too.

One of my favorite trends in the late 1990s was the blazer vest. I am so glad it’s back! This is a great alternative to a blazer on hot summer days, plus, it can elevate a pair of jeans or a denim skirt on casual days. I am thinking of snapping another one up in a fun color for the summer. Black is perfect to start. Love!

spring 2022 street style trends

Late spring is here! This means our shopping habits are shifting towards outdoor events and summer handbags. How fabulous is this classic basket bag? Basket and woven bags are always on trend in the summer, but this one is always on the IT list. I love a good investment bag. Who wants to keep buying a new basket bag every year? Not me! I love this small basket tote for summer. Perfection.

Street sneakers are continuing to be a hot trend in footwear, and this pair is really fun. This year, look for color combo’s you love in street sneakers, as well as comfort.

As you know, handbag styles from the early 2000s have been making a comeback the past few years. This summer, the trend is exploding, and you will see not only comeback styles, similar styles, and inspired styles, but an uptick in vintage bags hitting the streets. I will talk more about this next week on the blog, but in the meantime, this large hobo is hot on the street and also this black mini bag; which is reminiscent of the small pouch trend from the late 1990s into the early 2000s.
