Whether you’re ready or not, the new year is here, and with it comes a whole slew of the latest fashion trends. We’ve got the hook-up, so you’re stocked and ready to go. Explore new year, new fashion: top trends for 2022 to ensure your closet is trending.
Hoodies Under Blazers
Pairing your hoodie with a blazer is a mainstream look that exceeds generations and is no longer only a street-cut style. This trend uses an everyday comfort piece and takes it up a notch. You add a stylistic layer to your overall look, transforming your style from “quarantine cozy” to “take on the world chic.”
The trick is to wear a darker, solid-hued hoodie with a matching blazer. Keep the embroidery and graphics to a minimum with the sweatshirt. You’ll allow your blazer to shine and keep things looking streamlined.
Wear this trend with a pair of slacks for a night out on the town. Or, perhaps, wear it with your favorite jeans for a day spent shopping with your friends.
Cropped Cardigans
Not much defines the contemporary fashion scene like the crop. Thanks to various fast fashion and high fashion brands, this vintage-inspired trend has made its way onto the fashion scene. A light knit with your favorite boyfriend jeans is the correct answer, even if you aren’t sure.
There’s a style for everyone—from basic button-ups to embellished to printed knits. Try a cropped cardigan with a slip skirt to show your appreciation for Y2K. Or go bold and mix your shrunken knit with lounge-ish sweatpants for a day spent inside with friends for a movie marathon.
Oversized Bomber Jacket
Wear your bomber jackets loosely around the hips unless you’ve opted for a cropped style. The cuffs shouldn’t go above or past your wrists, no matter the size. If the cuffs hang too loosely, try on a smaller size.
Buy the bomber jacket in neutral hues to allow the outfit underneath to shine. You want to create a clean aesthetic.
Pair the oversized bomber with a midi skirt, long socks, and your favorite sneakers for an effortlessly chic look for work. If you find a sparkly bomber, wear that with slimming black jeans and heels for a comfortable party outfit.
Boiler Suits
These one-and-done pieces are perfect for when you don’t have the energy to pick out the pants and top. They’ve popped up everywhere, from high-end fashion runways to affordable stores. They traditionally use denim or heavy canvas, perfect for keeping you warm during the cold winter months.
You’ll have no problem strutting down the street like a runway model in a denim boiler suit and a pair of booties.
Pro-Tip
Make sure you pair this with a belt to accentuate your curves and a gorgeous bag to match it.
Puff Sleeves
Did you make the mistake of thinking you’d never see puff sleeves as a trend again? I think a lot of us did and guess what. They’re back.
The puff sleeve began making its comeback in 2018 when we noticed the 80s trend making its way back onto the runway. Fast-forward to 2022, and it’s bigger and better than ever. We’ve seen balloon sleeves and billowing sleeves attached to shirtdresses. You can even find two combined trends—puffy sleeves on a cropped top.
Pair a puffed sleeved top with your favorite slacks and a scarf for a day in the office. Swap the slacks for a sleek pencil skirt and heels for a fun date night.
Power Bohemian Flowers
Flowers represent growth, beauty, renewal, and the feminine side of nature. You can trace the correlation between natural femininity and floral motifs back through the last hundred years of fashion.
Boho-style floral prints are evolving to metal florals. Think out with the roses and in with the bold. You can find florals taking over Goth clothing brands, changing the floral game.
Pro-Tip
Avoid the wilting roses and go with twisted fantasy florals. Sunshine yellows and grassy greens blend with vibrant hues of gothic black and red.
Monochrome Matrix
Pairing black and white is a color combination no-brainer. It’s an easy way to ensure that your outfit is chic and classy, even on the days you don’t feel like putting much effort into your fashion choices. Is there any outfit more timeless than a white button-up blouse with black pants?
However, this doesn’t mean you can’t experiment with black and white. Have fun with different textures and layers, such as cut-out knits or color-blocking. You’ll find there’s a monochromatic style trick out there for everyone.
Layer your favorite white shirt with a black midi dress. Then, play around with monochrome belts, scarves, and similar accessories.
Sweet Pastels
Don’t save your pastels only for the spring this year. Go delicate and daring with frothy ruffles and sheer tulle all year round. Add some romance to short lengths and make those longer-style skirts more risqué.
You’ll elevate your 1990 barbie girl to controversial fashion inspiration. Don’t save your matching sweats for home life only. These are best to wear during unconventional social situations.
Take this look to the next level and wear chunky white boots for a day of fun-filled shopping. Amp it up even more with a blazer or long jacket. Add layered necklaces to take this trend over the top.
Knitted Vests
The sweater vest is back! Vests didn’t become a part of women’s fashion until the 1970s. They took over the casual workwear and ordinary everyday attire.
Celebrities and designers are making this a top trend for 2022. If you don’t own a vest, cut the sleeves off of a shirt to create your own.
Let’s also introduce the shirt vest. This look will elevate a plain vest for a stylistic boost.
Sash Belts
If this isn’t proof that the Y2K era fashion is back, I don’t know what to tell you. Belts add the final tailored touch to complete your look. They are like the period at the end of a sentence.
Sash belts made their way back onto the scene in the bridal fashion world and have integrated into everyday looks for 2022. Elevate your look to become the style goddess you are.
Use the sash belt with a pair of jeans or shorts and pair it with a plain tucked-in shirt to show off the sash. Or wear it with your favorite dress to cinch your waist.
