Hey friends! Summer has arrived, and we're here to make sure you’re ready to show up for that pool party/play date/festival in style. Today we're sharing the top 5 summer trends that will have you turning heads and feeling super stylish no matter your plans this season. Let’s dive in!

1. Bold Prints and Patterns
While we're all for a good neutral, this summer, it’s all about being bold with vibrant prints and patterns. Think tropical florals, geometric shapes, and even quirky fruits and animals. Pair a bold patterned top with your favorite denim shorts or mix and match prints for a daring look. So try mixing it up this summer, we don't think you'll regret it.

2. Retro Vibes
Retro vibes are making a major comeback, and we’re here for it. From flared jeans to tie-dye everything, channel your inner flower child. Don’t forget oversized sunglasses and platform sandals to complete the look. You’ll feel like you’ve stepped right out of the 70's!

3. Crochet Knits
Lighten up your summer wardrobe with crochet knit fabrics. Crochet tops, dresses, and skirts are perfect for those hot days when you want to look cute without melting into a puddle. Layer them over bralettes, crop tops, or even swimsuits for a look that’s both flirty and functional. We also love them worn on their own, with your favorite denim for a classic, easy summer look.

4. Utility Chic
Who says you can’t be practical and stylish? Utility chic is all about combining functionality with fashion. Think cargo pants, utility jackets, and jumpsuits with plenty of pockets. Earthy tones like khaki, olive, and beige are your go-to colors. Not only will you look effortlessly cool, but you’ll also have somewhere to stash your phone, lip gloss, and snacks. Win-win!

5. Pastel Perfection
Pastels are having a major moment this summer. These soft, dreamy colors are perfect for everything from brunch dates to evening strolls. Mint green, baby blue, lavender, and blush pink are all on the menu. Mix and match your pastels or go for a monochromatic look. Either way, you'll be right on trend this season.

Bonus: Accessories!
No outfit is complete without the right accessories. This summer, think big and bold. Chunky jewelry, wide-brimmed hats, and oversized bags are all the rage. And don’t forget about those statement sunglasses – they’re not just for blocking the sun, if you know what we mean.

So there you have it, the top 5 must-have trends for summer 2024. Whether you’re a fashion risk-taker or prefer to keep it classic, there’s something here for everyone. Happy styling!
