two-tone flip-flops
Flip-flops already had a big moment last year and are back this year and better than ever, thanks to The Row’s viral pair of flip-flops. Now, this trend has been taken up a notch with two-tone detailing between the base and straps of the shoe. Think red and black or pink and green. Alternatives are a fun way to add something interesting to a plain outfit. Style yours like all the girls do with loose jeans and a button-down or light sweater.

Layering Lace Tops
This is my favorite trend out of the group. I love spring layering. While I’ve certainly grown used to winter layering and its heaviness, spring layering gives me hope for summer and an excuse to make my outfits a little more fun to wear and look at. I saw one of my coworkers wearing a lace-trim top under a sweater on Instagram and couldn’t help but be impressed. Then, more stylish dressers started layering lace tops under shirts and sweaters, so I knew this trend would stick around until spring.

sheer balloon pants
Sheer pants had a big moment last year, and so did balloon pants. Whoever thought of putting the two trends together is a style genius. This pant trend is the most fun and playful trend I’ve seen so far. If you’re not too fond of the idea of wearing see-through pants, try styling them with full-coverage briefs, or simply try them on the beach over a bathing suit, whether it’s a one-piece or bikini. Or style them with an oversized button-down so your legs remain exposed. I know see-through balloon pants will be everywhere this spring, and it might be fun to try out this trend if you’re feeling adventurous.

silky bermuda shorts
Bermuda shorts are already in for spring, but silk Bermuda shorts are a brand new concept. The ease and comfort of the long shorts trend has always been a favorite of mine, but now that there’s an option for a softer, more delicate item to wear this spring I’m extra excited for the warmer weather. Although adding it to an outfit is quite simple, it makes a huge difference by adding a sophisticated element to the outfit.
