It’s time to say goodbye to the chunky sweaters and winter coats, switch out the warm boots for fun sneakers and ring in the new season with a wardrobe refresh to prepare for the brighter days ahead. Clear out the closet and make way for these spring 2025 trends:
Pastels, pastels, pastels
Butter yellow and cotton candy pink are among this season’s trending pastels. Although not a new trend for spring, these pastel colors, including pistachio green and light lavender, highlight the end of the winter blues and the arrival of spring sunshine. You can shop for tops, pants, light cardigans and even shoes from sites such as Journeys to brighten up any outfit.
Slim jeans
After spending a good two years in the limelight, it is time for the baggy jeans of yesteryear to be returned to the back of the closet. Slim jeans are stepping up for spring and summer 2025, including skinny jeans and pants. You can dress the pants up with a blazer — perhaps a light pink one to further lean into spring’s biggest trends — or pair it casually with a classic baby tee. Places such as Levi’s and Abercrombie & Fitch offer a multitude of slim jeans and pants.
Clogs
From Birkenstocks to Dr. Martens to UGG, everyday shoe brands have offered distinct takes on the clog. Now, the shoe is set to dominate the spring 2025 fashion scene. Like any great shoe, the clog is easy to style. With a variety of styles to choose from, it is effortless to curate the perfect ensemble with clogs. Show stores such as DSW offer a wide selection of clogs to choose from.
Leather and more leather
For men and women, leather jackets are always in style. The right leather jacket can instantly elevate even the most simple outfits. This season in particular, brown leather jackets are leaving a mark in the fashion world. Department stores such as Nordstrom and Macy’s are great places to look for leather jackets. Local thrift stores or sustainable brands such as Reformation also provide many options to find the perfect leather jacket.
Short shorts
Shorts in short lengths are big for men this spring. With a variety of styles to choose from, there is a pair of short shorts for any man. You can pair them with a fitted polo for dressier occasions or a graphic T-shirt for an everyday look. Gap, lululemon and stores such as Hollister have a variety of lengths and styles to choose from.
Classic watches
It is time to put the smartwatches back on the chargers. Classic watches are back and are the perfect accessory for men and women this season. Whether gold, silver, black or brown, any classic-style watch is the perfect finishing touch for a polished outfit. You can never be without the time and look good while checking it. Places such as Amazon offer affordable options for watches, but a watch from a jewelry store is a great option for those looking for a piece meant to stand the test of time.
Mixed metals
Gone are the days of choosing between gold or silver, at least for now. Mixed metals are in this spring, inviting endless options for switching up jewelry. You can go for gold rings and silver earrings, a silver necklace and a gold bracelet, or a piece that features both metals. Pavoi has a large selection of mixed metal jewelry at an affordable price range.
As spring brings warmer and longer days and a brighter sun, spring fashion brings ample opportunities for joyful self-expression. From light, bright colors to timeless accessories and a new short inseam, the biggest spring fashion trends await those inviting enough to embrace them.
