It is that lovely time of the year once again when I hunt down the latest fashion trends and report them to you. I like to take notes while out shopping and while reading magazines to determine the hottest summer 2016 fashion trends that you need in your wardrobe. This time around I will be inspiring you with super cute items from affordable, non-designer stores and brands.
Summer 2016 Fashion Trends List
1) White
The first style in this list of summer 2016 fashion trends is wearing the color white. When is white not trending?! You probably have this color in your closet already as it comes in every form imaginable.
2) Eyelets
Second is clothing with eyelets. We typically see this design on dresses and shirts. Eyelets are always playful and feminine, so it is a wise investment to add a few pieces to your wardrobe.
3) Bold accessories
Third we have bold accessories! You may want to try some bright colors with your handbags, or throw on some large, statement jewelry. Spicing up your daily aesthetic is super trendy right now.
4) Strappy sandals/gladiators
The fourth look from this list of summer 2016 fashion trends is gladiator, or strappy sandals. They look great with rompers, shorts, and skirts. I say the higher the straps go up your legs, the better!
5) Boho prints
Fifth we have boho prints. It is hard to describe exactly what a boho print is, but it is not normally an animal print or dots. Below are some examples. We typically see these prints on skirts and shirts.
6) Black and white polka dots
Next are black and white dots! These are such a style classic for sure. I love dots because they can instantly make your look more feminine, business-like, or whatever you are trying to achieve. Sometimes a good dot pattern takes your look from ordinary to extraordinary.
7) Bows
The final look from this list of summer 2016 fashion trends are bows! Put a bow on everything from handbags, shoes, shirts, and more. Adding in one simple bow can really make it look like you put extra effort into your style, and they can pair with almost anything.
I hope that by reaching the end of this list of summer 2016 fashion trends that you feel more inspired and confident when it comes to your next shopping trip. Let me know in the comments which of these trends you plan to rock this summer. Until next time, continue to let your true beauty shine.
