The Hottest Fashion Trends to Make any Outfit Pop
As the style season changes, there are many ways that you can instantly spice up any look with the right fashion trend or hack to make it an instant winner. Simple additions like laying in bold statement pieces like intriguing jewelry, bold scarves, trendy belts, or statement shoes can change up any outfit.
You can use these trends to jazz up outfits from prior seasons or take outfits from day to night. Here are a few simple ways you can really take your sense of style to the next level:
1. Invest in bold accessories to make outfits pop
When you use accessories to polish a look, you can completely change the look’s impact and fashion level. By investing in the trendiest accessories of the season, you can immediately make an outfit that you may have bought three years ago look like this season’s top style. If you tend to wear basic blacks and grays, try adding some bold colors in acessores like tights, belts, scarves, shoes and handbags to add some versatility to your wardrobe.
2. Get trendy with basic dress silhouettes
Dress trends are bold, beautiful, and daring right now. You can make a statement anywhere you go by wearing an A-line or little black dress (LDB) style with puffed sleeves, minidresses with a wrap-effect, dresses with cutouts, smock dresses, or dresses with soft ruffle trim. While many of the current dress styles are bold and pretty outgoing, you can actually make a statement by sticking to classic dress silhouettes with very subtle trendy elements so they never go out of style. The next event you attend, reach for the little black dress that can be modernized with some great accessory styling.
3. Vary your jean styles
Although jeans are very versatile, not every pair fits every occasion. For example, straight-leg jeans and boots create an upscale look; while skinny jeans are fitting for a date night or concert. You can also take a look from office to after work drinks by swapping the top, handbag, shoes and jewelry. The same pair of jeans can be easily jazzed up or dressed down depending on the type of top, accessories, and shoes you choose to pair them with. A pair of skinny jeans can be styled with a loose t-shirt and sandals for a lunch with friends or dressed up with heels and a great blouse for a ladies’ night out.
4. Get creative with shoes and boots
Shoes and boots have long been a staple of any wardrobe. Stock up your closet with a variety of shoes like ballerina flats, sandals, clogs, loafers, pumps, and sneakers and riding boots, chelsea boots, Doc Martens, ankle booties, and more that will change the tone of your favorite outfits with a quick footwear swap.
5. Use bold colors below the knee
Look at any celeb event or fashion influencer and you know that white boots are all the rage this season. White boots are taking to the streets in styles like combat boots, ankle booties, knee high boots, and mod boots. You can add some extra color and style to any outfit below the knee with bold tights or shoes. Pair your shoes with a matching handbag to pull your look together.
6. Dress a look up with trendy makeup
Trendy makeup styles like metallic eyeshadow, feathery brows, bold lipsticks, and exceptionally voluminous lashes are all incredible ways to use your makeup as a strong accessory. Makeup and skin hacks like facial contouring, bold highlighters, and applying foundation with a high-end brush are all ways to use makeup to make your look stand out.
7. Mix and match accessories
Most of us don’t have the budget to wear a new outfit every day. Using accessories to polish a look is a great way to change up an outfit. You can spice up a basic look simply by adding different belts, styling various scarves, or adding pieces of statement jewelry.
