4 Fashion Trends for Summer 2017

By Candice Cobuzzi on May 28, 2017

School is out, the weather is starting to warm up, and the beloved summer season is finally here! Summer means going to the beach, getting tan, rosé, and barbecues, and in fashion it means fewer layers, strapless tops, and light colors.

With each summer comes new trends. In past years we have seen jean skirts come back, jumpsuits, and joggers, but, here are the four fashion trends for summer 2017.

Knots:

Knots seem to be working their way into all types of clothing and accessories. The two most popular places I have seen knots implemented into a look are in the shirt or bottoms. Below are two examples of knots applied to two different tops, one from Free People and the other from Urban Outfitters. The strapless knotted tank from Free People appears to be the more popular trend and is a look I am dying to try out.

Below you can also see how knots can be included in other styles of clothing. Here we have shoes from Free People with knots on the top. These sandals are perfect for adding a wow factor to any outfit.

Bell Sleeves:

Bell sleeves are back in full swing! Both shirts and blouses are popping up with bell sleeves as you can see below. These tops are great for cooler summer nights and can add drama to any outfit. Pair them with shorts or a cute skirt and you will be all set to enjoy a night out or show off the trend at a weekend cookout.

Bell sleeves are also being added to dresses! This dress from Forever 21 is light and airy so you are not sweating in the summer weather, and is also very affordable.

Intricate Button Downs:

Spice up your look (or work look for those with an internship or job) with one of these beautiful button downs. Whether the button down has long, obscure sleeves or an unordinary neckline you must try this trend! You will look put together and fashionable instantly. To keep the look acceptable for the summer, try picking out this style with a sear sucker pattern!

Nudes:

Nudes on nudes! This trend, made popular by the Kardashians, is starting to work its way into retail stores! If you are daring, try pairing a nude pair of leggings with a nude body suit. Perfect examples of a pair of nude leggings and bodysuit are the pieces from Forever 21 below. Throw a camo or moss green light jacket over this look and you will be all set to go!

If you are looking for more of a refined nude look, try these nude trousers from Tobi! You can pair these with any top or even a nude one.

This trend is daring but you are sure to get compliments for your California flare!

So, before you start going to summer events, beach parties, or barbecues remember to grab one or all of these four fashion trends for the summer and your outfit will be the hit of the party.
