Keep things fresh and wallet-friendly.
Its a fact of fashion life that trends come and go.
Keeping track can sometimes feel like riding a merry-go-round.
Just keep in mind it’s always fun to try out new styles too, she shares.
Will they be back?
Meanwhile, you might want to augment your wardrobe with something on-trend.
Look for a wider leg with straight leg or boyfriend/girlfriend styles currently in fashion, she says.
Thesestraight-leg jeansfrom Levis are perfect, especially if you want to let go of your skinny-jean look slowly.
The straight leg isnt crazy wide and the stretchy fabric is comfortable enough to wear them fitted.
This style makes for a more balanced silhouette than skinny jeans and reviewers love them.
Lets keep up with fashion trends, said onereviewer.
These jeans are perfect for the modern-day cut jeans.
[…] Great fit and not too over the edge.
Instead: High-Waisted Pants That Are Comfy & Chic
Creative director and stylistDenise Stylessagrees the skinny-jeans trend is out.
She likes high-waisted wide-leg pants to freshen up your closet.
The color options go from neutrals through a rich palette of lovely hues to patterns and plaids.
[They] are no longer considered a stylish shoe, she says.
The bootie trend has been replaced fortunately for those of us who love comfort with sneakers.
These bling-heavylightweight sneakersare everything you are looking for.
They are affordable and so flashy your trainers cant keep up.
Theyre ultra-comfortable with a stretch mesh upper and cushioned running-shoe-inspired sole.
Some styles sport gold-chain but others are adorned only with color and texture.
This cut-outlow bootgives warmer-weather appeal and lets you show off some flash hosiery, too.
These also look fab with flowy midi skirts and Daisy Duke shorty-shorts if youre daring.
Incorporating a few it pieces can make the difference between an updated or outdated look, she says.
Sport these Adidass Samba classicsoccer shoesand place yourself firmly and comfortably in what Appelt calls the retro sneaker trend.
With racing stripes and a rubber sole no flashy air cushions or platforms these are old school.
There are no cleats, though, so you might wear them anywhere.
But then, the patterns are so fun that they take the concept to the next level.
The crochet pattern, gray suede, and micro florals might start their own trend.
There are, of course, old-school solid colors, too.
These […] are just as good as the name brand and for so much cheaper!
This is my second pair and I love them!
Now, its all about how minimal can you get.
Instead of loud designs and messages that scream, choose a plain, solid-color tee.
You never have to worry about a white tee going out of style, she says.
With high-quality hardware and a size that holds your essentials, it can go from day to night easily.
Instead: This Graphic Tee Thats Back In
Denise Styless agrees that oversize logos are out.
She sees vintage-inspired graphic tees (along with statement earrings and high-waisted, wide-leg pants) heating up.
Drop your favorite version of this crewneckgraphic teein your cart for an easy and affordable wardrobe update.
There are so many fun images to choose from and the lightweight rayon is soft and comfy.
Its so easy just wear a single color, even if you are almost wearing jammies.
Think 90s vibe meets Lady Di and you have it.
So feather your hair and pull on this Baylor Bearsvintage sweatshirt.
EVERYTHING you want in a sweatshirt, said onereviewer.
It’s so comfy, cute, and warm.
[…] It looks like youre wearing your mans sweatshirt.
Instead: These Bike Shorts To Complete The Look
Bike shorts are not just for working out.
And you could choose the inseam length you prefer.
I wear these all the time, said onereviewer.
Super comfortable and stylish.
Its practical, too, since in all-cotton it is breathable, washable, cool, and packable.
Swap them out for a pair of cargo pants.
These slightly stretchy, pocket-rich, high-waisted, wide-legcargo pantsare a great example of the look people are embracing.
These will take you from day to evening and look fabulous with a strappy sandal.
They are so easy to pair with everything from pants to skirts they may even simplify your life.
For a fun take on slim shades, try some retrocat eye sunglasses.
These are lightweight and sturdy, and reviewers appreciate their darker tint.
A pair of slim leopard print cat-eye?
They passed the expiration date a while ago, she says.
If that was a look you liked to sport, though, fear not.
This long-sleevebutton-down shirtis perfect for rocking this style.
It doesnt hurt that its affordable and comes in so many colors and patterns.
Tie it, button a couple of buttons, or leave it unbuttoned.
Its pretty, airy, breathable, and comes in a huge selection of colors.
This metallicmesh teeis a cute and easy way to do just that.
Since it is also sheer, you’re able to cover two trends with one piece of clothing.
I LOVE THIS SHIRT!
It is see-through but the blue-to-purple shimmer is what makes it so cool.
That look has been replaced, though, with classic chains.
I would go for a simple chain like this herringbone one instead, she suggests.
This snakechain necklacehas a liquid movement thats pretty alone or that layers well with other chains.
This is easy to get behind as its so delicate and pretty.
Its also easy to find a few pieces to hop on this trend no matter your budget.
This gold snake chainnecklaceis dainty and easy to layer.
Dainty earrings were fine for a while, says DuFour.
Small, delicate pieces still work for a second and third piercing.
But swap your main earring for a bold two-inch to three-inch hoop, she instructs.
These will elevate your accessory game and be a staple in your jewelry arsenal.
Choose from four hoop-size options.
All pieces are constructed from recycled materials as part of the brands commitment to sustainability, to boot.
Oh and it has pockets.
I personally love a kitten heel or a little mule.
Especially these Calvin Klein ones … that are super cute and super affordable.
The square toe on thisheeled sandalis adorable and they are easy to step into and kick off.
Instead: A Mule For Instant Style Thats So Comfortable
Thispointed-toe muleis another cute alternative to a chunky heel.
Its nearly flat so the comfort level is high and the step-in style is super easy to wear.
The pointed toe gives it a modern elegance thats right on point.
So there is no risk in deploying this oversizedenim jacketalong with yourstraight-leg jeans.
There are lots of pockets and buttons for versatile styling options.
A Slouchy Bag Thats Shiny & Fun
Slouchy bags and purses are also hot right now, says Appelt.
This sparklyslouchy purseis the date-night version of this trend.
An Oversize Blazer As An Easy Style Hack
Styless also likes a versatileblazer as a fresh, go-to piece.
This one has a two-button closure, notch lapel, and two functional pockets to chic up your closet.
I ordered this jacket to dress up more casual and comfy shirts.
It did the trick, but is amazingly comfortable, too.
This timeless, double-breastedtrench coatis only $40.
It also sports old-style epaulets, a belt, and lots of buttons.
Faux Fur Accessories That Make Things Fun
Appelt predicts that faux fur accessories are positioned to take off.
