SPRING 2024 FASHION TRENDS: WHAT TO WEAR NOW

With the beauty of spring upon us and in full bloom, of course the excitement of its embrace is in full effect! However, now more than ever in addition to the fashions, the fragrances, the colors, and everything the season brings, many of us are now choosing to make the embrace more individualized, with more focus on a style of our own.

In the midst of developing our personal style, we could all still use a bit of assistance from time to time with what that could potentially look like. Although I would never suggest embracing every trend that comes our way, every wardrobe can benefit from a refresh that includes a good ole trend from time to time.

However, since there is always a new trend for us to consume, I maintain the importance of knowing which may be worth the try vs. ones to skip. Yet despite my thoughts about how we consume trends, I will still advocate for the embrace of a good trend – that is, with the notion that a ’good trend’ is relative to what YOUR wardrobe dictates.

When incorporating trends, what’s key is not falling prey to the wardrobe rut of feeling compelled to embrace every trend there is and still not having a sense of style or anything to wear.

While there are a number of current trendy fashion choices worth the investment, we should navigate them carefully and only lean into what our personal style calls for.

Should you have questions about your personal style and the development of it, make sure you check out the previous blog post HOW TO DEVELOP YOUR PERSONAL STYLE.

The following is a list of 5 current spring trends worth the investment. These items have been selected based on the idea that just about anyone can personalize them not just for a trendy moment in time but for seasons to come.

Shorts

While the current trend is the micro short, this is where focus on personal style should be at the forefront.

Whether you are a fan of this trend or not, the primary focus surrounding the trend should be the current offerings of shorts in a number of different styles and options.
