Spring is usually the perfect time to update your wardrobe, but this year has been all about loungewear and leggings. While we can't deny comfort is crucial when it comes to work-from-home outfits, we do find ourselves daydreaming about the fun, frivolous looks we'd like to wear when it feels right to go out into the world again.
Below are seven affordable trends we can't wait to wear sometime soon.
1. The statement sleeve
The puff sleeve is popular among both the street style set and runway fashion designers. It's one of our personal favorites because you can dress up for a night out but also wear it casually with jeans or even just for a self-care Sunday afternoon.
Balloon Sleeve Top
Pair this balloon sleeve shirt with high-waisted jeans on the weekend for a fun and easy outfit.
2. Not your grandma’s crochet
Comfy but also statement-making? Tell us more! With a boho flair, this style has a far cooler vibe than the old school crochet pieces you may have found in your grandmother's house.
Crochet Fringe Tank
This fringed tank is great for layering and can be styled with a fun jean jacket for an effortless look.
3. Denim midi skirt
From Celine to Givenchy, long skirts were all over the runway this year! This is one of the biggest trends we can't wait to wear in the coming months.
Side Split Denim Midi Skirt
Dressing up this denim midi with a blazer and pumps could be an ambitious fashion statement, but it can also be styled with an array of tops from a printed tee to a work blouse.
