Resort Outfits Become Everyday Must-Haves
Every day will feel like you’re on vacation when you wear your character in what we call “Beachcomber” style. Sun-drenched linens, breathable fabrics and tropical prints filled our carts. But you don’t have to show off this style on the beach. Wear your Beachcomber look for a coastal look year-round. Flowy tops are worn with a sweater or blazer, paired with denim or classic trousers. Then, complete the look with strappy flat sandals. Bon Voyage!
Floral prints are ready to go
When shopping for this year’s floral pieces, don’t forget to stop and smell the roses. The “Garden State” trend is the perfect way to brighten up your wardrobe. Whether you opt for larger floral prints or subtle and unisex small blooms, these pieces are versatile and suitable for year-round wear. Overwhelmed by the prospect of styling with a plethora of new flowers? don’t want! Just pair them with your usual striped or checked pieces.
Shoppers love bold hues and designs
This year, express yourself unapologetically while embracing “minimalism.” Don’t be afraid to combine rich textures, vibrant colors and bold prints. Our professional stylists’ goal is to make you feel empowered every time you step out the door.
Prep School Fashion gets an A+
Study this sweet, delicate show preppy. You’ll see more of that in town this year. Transition seamlessly from work to night out in “prep school” fashion.
The preppy look is expressed in demure button-down shirts, pleated skirts, cardigans and open-toed flats. Choose from a light or neutral color scheme, or go dark like Wednesday Addams to find the one that works for you. Indulge in an oversized blazer, plaid trim or platform loafers for an easy wardrobe update. This stylish remodel of a private school styling gets top marks for 2023!
Proportion Play Keeps Silhouettes Relaxed
Go big or go home and drop those hemlines!it’s time Embrace the oversized silhouette Incorporate stylish style into comfortable pieces as the “proportion game” trend continues.
Last year sales of wide-leg pants doubled and sales of straight-leg pants tripled. Gone are the days of skinny jeans, and this year, we’re anticipating more straight-fit styles that are number one among our customers. Consider pairing a midi dress or wide-leg pants with a long blazer and fitted top to really accentuate this loose, flowy silhouette. Our stylists expect flats and low heels to be the go-to options for this look.
Commuting style continues to drive sales
“Commutercore” is our #1 Men’s Trend of 2023. Yes, it is possible to look professional and feel comfortable at the same time. We’ve found that men want to wear performance fabrics in their everyday lives, and performance polo shirts now make up a significant portion of men’s polo shirt sales. Use performance fabrics in professional pieces for an elegant, dual-purpose look that’s just as good for the office or date night.
Cabincore Wants to Bring the Outdoors In
The staying power of the “Cabincore” trend is as strong as the call of the mountains. Highlighting utilitarian details, hooded flannels, work jackets and light coats, many of our clients love this outdoor style for its casual appeal.Layer different textures, knits and down jackets in the same color family Create an elegant look that blends the outdoors with your custom style.
