Saints Style – So­cial Me­dia Fash­ion Trends

As one is scrolling through var­i­ous so­cial me­dia plat­forms they can come across a lot of fash­ion in­flu­ences. It can be hard to weed through all of the self­ies, OOT­D’s and try-on- hauls. This week Saints Style is go­ing to do the work for you, and comb through some of the most preva­lent fash­ion trends that are tak­ing and pro­vide quick analy­sis.

Knit­ted Vests

These vests were seen through­out the fall and win­ter sea­son but are sur­pris­ingly stand­ing their ground as warmer weather rolls around. The knit­ted ma­te­r­ial cuts off, leav­ing an ex­posed arm that could be sur­viv­able as tem­per­a­tures be­gin to climb. Also, it looks amaz­ing, as can be seen in this photo of in­flu­encer Emma Cham­ber­lain as she pairs it with a black tee-shirt un­der­neath. It gives a classy yet sim­ple feel to any out­fit that it is paired with.

Tights

The next trend that can be seen is paired with more for­mal at­tire. Tights have ap­peared left and right on so­cial me­dia and Ryan Des­tiny’s pro­file is no ex­cep­tion. The classy ad­di­tion can be placed un­der a dress or skirt and im­me­di­ately el­e­vate the look with­out draw­ing too much at­ten­tion away from state­ment pieces of the out­fit. In this case, the tights pro­vide a darker can­vas for the lighter-col­ored blazer to re­ally shine.

Gloves

Stick­ing with the for­mal at­tire theme, long and dra­matic gloves are mak­ing a come­back. Gloves like the white ones worn by Syd­ney Sweeney are tak­ing so­cial me­dia by storm. The el­e­gant state­ment piece pro­vides a unique and time­less feel to any dress. These re­sem­ble the ones worn by style icon Au­drey Hep­burn back when she worked on the film, Break­fast with Tiffany’s.  They can be seen in all types of col­ors and fab­rics.  One of the most fas­ci­nat­ing be­ing the black sheer gloves that pro­vide a dif­fer­ent spin on the clas­sic ac­ces­sory.

Bright Col­ors (In out­fits and also trans­lated into house decor)

With in­flu­encers like Vic­to­ria Paris, one can see the rise of col­or­ful en­sem­bles grow­ing in pop­u­lar­ity. For so long, peo­ple were lean­ing to­wards more neu­tral tones, and al­though those are also es­sen­tial, bright col­ors are mak­ing a come­back. Vi­brant greens, pinks, or­anges, and blues can be seen across plat­forms such as In­sta­gram. Vic­to­ria Paris is not one to shy away from color and it can even be seen in the decor she uses for her New York Apart­ment. The color com­bi­na­tions that would be seen as over­whelm­ing about 5 years ago are now sub­ject to repli­ca­tion in many cases. All we know is that vi­brant col­ors are here to stay.

Graphic Tees

A fun trend com­ing back for the spring and sum­mer is graphic tees! Specif­i­cally, graphic baby tees. Ex­press­ing your­self through your style is some­thing in­flu­encer De­von Lee Carl­son em­u­lates in all of her looks. In this photo, she’s wear­ing a very Y2K in­spired tee with a pair of low rise jeans. The com­bi­na­tion is the per­fect mix of com­fort and style. An­other ex­am­ple of this trend can be seen in Olivia Ro­drigo’s most re­cent post. The singer is pic­tured at Dis­ney­land with a ‘Fairy Tales’ tee and a ‘I Love Fan­ta­sy’ trucker hat. Play­ing around with fun col­ors and quotes can be a great way to add more per­son­al­ity to your every­day looks!

Mini Skirts and Low-Rise Pants

An­other big theme com­ing back for spring is mini skirts and low-rise pants! As the weather be­gins warm­ing up, hav­ing a go-to pair of com­fort­able jeans or an easy to style skirt is es­sen­tial for any oc­ca­sion. In the first im­age, Emma Cham­ber­lain is pic­tured wear­ing a bright yel­low mini skirt on a re­cent va­ca­tion. The skirt is paired with a blue long sleeve that ties to­gether this col­or­ful look! Also pic­tured in a mini skirt is De­von Lee Carl­son. She’s def­i­nitely dressed for warmer weather, pair­ing the skirt with tall boots, a turtle­neck, and a long coat.
