How We Style Spring: Trend Colors & 10 Trends for 2019

Pantone Spring/Summer Trend Colors

This month’s Stylish Monday’s theme is how we style spring! Lot’s of great spring looks and inspiration have been included by all of my fellow fashionistas!

It’s time to look in your closet for these wonderfully bold spring/summer trend colors! Do you have a favorite? Living Coral is the “it” color for 2019. This is not a color I typically gravitate towards. For that reason, I’m pushing myself out of my comfort zone to give it a try. Which color is your favorite?

1. Living Coral

This spring look incorporates both the Pantone “it” color – Living Coral with the animal print trend (snakeskin print) that is continuing into the spring and summer!

The Stylish Monday group also did a collaboration post on the snakeskin print trend. In case you missed that post, click here: Trending Now: Snakeskin Print

The next looks incorporates my living coral sweater with wide leg, crop pants, which have a little neon (a spring trend) and coral touches.

In hind sight, I probably won’t pair this sweater with these pants again especially after looking at these pictures. Why you ask? Because two loose fitting items super sizes you and no one wants that! The general rule of thumb is to wear a fitted item with a loose fitting item as is demonstrated by this sweater worn with my snakeskin print pants. It is a far more balanced look!

These wide leg, cropped pants look much better paired with this neon sweater because it is more fitted to my body! Neon is a spring trend. If neon is a questionable trend for you, think of doing it in small doses – like shoes, purses, jewelry.

This Living Coral top was pulled from my closet! It’s a very vibrant shade of coral and has touches of Princess Blue! Last season, I wore this top with black jeans with gingham lace ups on the ankles. It could also be worn with white jeans and my white moto jacket. How cute is the gingham lace up detail in the back of the top?!

2. Tie Dye & 3. Neon

These two trends are throwbacks to previous trends I enjoyed in my younger years! If you don’t like color, 2019 may be a testing time for you, because along with neons and yellows, there’ll be a load of tie dye. I’m a fan of both neon and tie dye! How about you? I was able to shop my closet for this trend!

This black tie dye tee with sunflower and rhinestone peace sign embellishments has been in my closet forever! Added pops of yellow because YELLOW is a HUGE spring fashion trend! Yellow is one of my favorite colors to wear and I do have quit a bit in my closet! A friend that I work with often says she can’t wear yellow. If you feel the same, just add pops of the color!

4. Animal Print

The good news is that if you bought a leopard print item last season, you’ll still be able to wear it as animal prints continued to rock the catwalks at spring/summer fashion weeks.

Emma combines neon (a spring trend) pink with zebra! Love this combination!

5. Cycling Shorts

Yep, the trend that no one ever asked for is back, and bolder than ever. Not sure this is for me but never say never! Look for bike shorts in unique colors, lengths, and textures. My friend Cindy totally rocks the look and has paired yellow (a spring trend) and a belt purse (trending)! Cindy always inspires me to step out of my fashion comfort zone!

6. Acid Treated Denim

Look for any kind of acid-treated denim that you probably wore in the ’80s. Of course the look has been update!

7. Feathers

Feathers as trim, feathers as a bag, feathers on a shoe—you can’t go wrong with this one.

8. Bucket Hats

Expect the accessory to come with print floral patterns or in a living coral shade. Grab a bucket hat in a fun pattern, like camo, to add personality to your next outfit. I don’t typically wear hats so I thought I’d share a friend who totally rocks all hat styles! Meet Susie!

9. Crochet

Look for netting, shells, crochet, fringe, charms on everything from overlay dresses to handbags to vacation-ready sandals. Spring in Illinois is a mixed bag of weather from snow to the sunny and warm and everything in between. Here I’ve mixed a sleeves dress with a crotchet sweater for a little added warmth! Two looks in one!

10. Barely There Sandals

Think strappy sandals that are “barely-there”! Some are dubbing this the “naked shoe” trend, wherein the straps are designed to cling ever so slightly to your feet. The foot is the star of the show as is your pedicure!
