With summer break right around the corner, there are many upcoming trends for the season. Recently, different patterns have been making a comeback, such as stripes and polka dots. Some textures that have also been on the rise and staying in style for summer are linen and any light, flowy fabrics.
One of the popular aesthetics that has come into light is the Mediterranean Chic aesthetic. This consists of sheer fabric, light, flowy materials and neutral colors. The goal of this aesthetic is to look effortless and sunwashed. Lightweight silk and linen are some of the most popular fabric textures for this. The colors that help form this theme are whites/creams, butter yellows, olive greens, ocean blues, terracotta, and sandy beige. With these neutral colors, it is easy to layer the articles of clothing. The specific articles of clothing that are popular are white linen button-downs, flowy maxi skirts, tailored shorts, simple slip dresses and wide-leg linen pants. The shoes in this theme are very simple as well. Leather sandals and minimal strappy flats go perfectly with almost every article of clothing under this theme. Accessories other than shoes that go well with this aesthetic are gold jewelry, oversized sunglasses, silk scarves and woven straw bags.
Another one of the aesthetics that has recently become popular is the Coastal Glam aesthetic. This consists of vibrant corals, turquoise, sea-glass blues and sun-faded pinks. Similar to the Mediterranean Chic aesthetic, long, flowy skirts are a must-have. Any bright, warm-toned colors such as corals, turquoises, lime greens and bright blues are wardrobe staples. Tube tops, flowy skirts, maxi and mini dresses are some of the popular wardrobe pieces for this aesthetic. Accessories that fit with this aesthetic are chunky, gold jewelry, neutral colored shoes and brightly colored purses.
