And just like that, winter's over, which means it's time to make room in your wardrobe for new, fresh outfits. We're convinced every fashion stylist, buyer, and editor is low-key enthusiastic about the upbeat turn fashion is taking this season. It's full of colour and intricate designs, with a throwback to '70s and '80s trends. While the major spring and summer styles have been forecasted, we broke them down a little further to give you insight on what trends have left the building and what trends you're soon to try.
Even if you haven't exactly budgeted for a whole new wardrobe, you don't always have to spend a fortune straight away. A simple update of this seasons It bag or shoe might just do the trick in transforming your outfits. Or maybe it's a small styling tweak like taking your staple button-down shirt and tying it at your waist. Take a look at the five themes below that we've seen come before and are set to be replaced with something new.
