My first trend-focused (This is (Gonna Be) Huge) blog was a fan favorite and you guys wanted more…now introducing the Summer 2019 Trend Alert!!! From head to toe, I’ve got you covered with 6 big trends for the summer and my favorite pieces for each.

Hair Accessories

This past spring we’ve had a taste of some hair accessories, but get ready to go all in this summer. Let’s leave the pearl clips in the past (cute, but they’ve had their time to shine). Look to headbands, head scarves, and bandanas to add to your wardrobe (neck up) to add some color, fun, and function to your summer look. The convertible’s waiting.

(Clockwise)

1. Nude Clip 
2. Red/ Blue Hair Tie
3. Nude Bandana (If you want a bandana I would just look for a vintage one at a local thrift shop)
4. Red Headband Scarf
5. Karl Lagerfeld
6. Black Thick headband

Tie-Dye

Say it with me: THIS IS THE SUMMER OF TIE DYE. I love how playful and colorful this trend is- perfect from the poolside to cute city restaurants! So many brands are hopping on board with this trend so it shouldn’t be too hard to find some epic pieces, but here are a few of my favorites at the moment:

(clockwise)

1. Tie Dye Dress
2. Yellow Crop
3. Casual Shorts (10% of sales from n:Philanthropy go to charity! Yay!)
4. Sweats
5. Swim Suit
6. Zip Up Hoodie

Colored Cords

Corduroys have always been a classic, but they’re truly making a colorful comeback for the summer. Don’t be too scared about overheating.. brands are making lighter cords so they are humidity/ 80 degree approved. Time to learn something from the Corduroy the bear… next time you’re reaching for color, go for these!

(clockwise)

1. Blue Shorts (& kinda matching jacket)
2. Lilac Jacket
3. Orange Jacket
4. Blue Pants
5. Pink Shorts
6.  Pink Pants (I own and love these)

Silk/ Satin

It can be argued that silk pieces are timeless, but they are definitely going to have a spotlight moment this summer. It is feminine, easy, and sexy, and will make you look amazing without trying too hard. There are so many ways to wear it, here are a few of my current favorites:

1. Reformation Black Tank
2. LBD
3. Blue Jumpsuit (this piece is amazing)
4. Pink Dress
5. Black Sandals
6. Lilac Dress
7. Black Shorts
8. Silk Pants

Cardigans

Bet you never thought you’d wear cardigans outside of a church service or brunch with your grandmother.. but look where we are now…

Cardigans are making a major comeback (along with all of its early 2000’s counterparts). Here are the best of the best:

 

1. Grey Cydnie Jordan
2. Reformation (sustainable) White Cardigan 
3. Hot Pink
4. Baby Pink
5. Slouchy Cozy Brown Cardigan
6. All about the sleeves in Grey
7. Yellow Cardi
8. White Pouf

Comfortable Sets

The days of floral and gingham sets are coming to and end, but don’t shed a tear- following closely behind is something a bit more preferable- comfortable “lounge” sets. I have a few of these and they are my absolute GO-TO. Whether running errands or hanging around the house, these are the first thing I reach for. All your cute lounge-wear prayers are answered, here are a few of my favorites:

1. Skirt Set- Sweater and Skirt
2. Oatmeal Set- Shorts and Top
3. Slouchy Tee Set- Shorts and Top
4. Grey Hoodie Set
5. Lilac Happy- Sweatpants and Sweatshirt
6. Camo Set
