Florals

Yes, florals have long been associated with Spring fashion but there’s so many more ways, and times, you can wear the botanical pattern. Earlier this year, Fashion Week goers around the world rocked florals in multiple forms to the Autumn/Winter 2018 fashion shows. You don’t have to get an invite to join the party, we’ve got what you need right here at Swap Society! Stick to bold pieces and floral patterns to stay on trend. You can pair these pieces with other floral items, another print, or a nice complementary color! Here are some of our favorites:

Pastels

Although most of us aren’t afraid of color when it comes to the warmer months, pastels can be a great way to transition for the color-shy. Pair a pastel piece with a neutral and gold or silver jewelry pieces to ease yourself into the trend. A color veteran? If you really want to be on trend and push the limits, don some monochrome outfits. Pair a navy blue blazer with pastel blue pants, and a matching pastel blue top. You can also experiment with multiple colors in pastel shades for an outfit that will make a soft statement. Here are some of our favorite pieces: 

 

From Left to Right: Esley lace dress, Talbot's linen blend dress, Dynamite shift dress, BDG off-the-shoulder peasant blouse, Zara flax, linen and cotton blend skirt, Laundry by Shelli Segal lace dress, Eleven Stitch Design cotton and lyocell blend pants, Purple & Yellow Authentic skirt.

 

Plaid

Not unlike florals, plaid has a specific reputation. Plaid is often associated with school uniforms, or Burberry trench coats. This pattern doesn’t have to be saved only for colder months! Take a note from Clueless and embrace the preppy 90’s style that is making a comeback. A way to avoid looking like you actually just copied Cher’s outfits piece for piece? Dress down plaid items by wearing them with sneakers, bomber jackets, loose denim, and boxy tops! Here are our favorites:

From Left to Right: Unknown zipper-front skirt, Topshop blazer, Unknown jumper dress, Xhilaration jumpsuit, J. Crew skirt.
