1. White Pants
No matter whether you’re embracing the trend for chino or you’re more comfortable in jeans, everyone should own a pair of white pants in 2023. White is the perfect colour to signal the transition from winter to summer, so you don’t have to feel like your wardrobe is stuck in the last season. Now that all the white snow is gone and the colours of spring are blooming all around you, the best way to stand out and stay bright is with a pair of white pants.
2. Lightweight Tops and Blouses
The time of year to wear your heaviest clothing is over. Now that we’re experiencing sunny weather on a daily basis, you’re going to need the clothing to match. The best place to get started is to break out your lighter tops and blouses to see whether you have everything you need to survive the spring and summer. It’s going to be a long time before the weather gets cold again, so if you don’t have enough lighter tops, you’d better get shopping.
3. Stylish Sweaters
When you’re putting together your list of essentials to round out your wardrobe, you can’t forget a few staple sweaters. A sweater is more than a layering piece to your outfit or a way to keep warm, it can easily ground an otherwise pattern or color-heavy outfit, or it can be a statement piece on its own.
Your sweaters can range in thickness, texture, color and design — which means you can tailor your selection to reflect your personal style. If you gravitate towards a minimalist style, neutral crewneck sweaters may be the right fit. On the other hand, if you love taking risks with your clothing, you may opt for bolder patterns to give your wardrobe new life.
4. Shoulder Bags
Every season, a specific bag style becomes the centre of attention in the fashion world. In 2023, both high-end and affordable designers are looking to the shoulder bag as this year’s trending piece. The shoulder bag is a simple design that’s relatively small in size but can be found in both neutral colors and bold patterns.
Style your shoulder bag with a simple pair of jeans and a t-shirt for a chic off-duty look, or pair it with a little black dress for an evening out.
Now that you know what the trend forecast looks like for 2023, you can begin to build a wardrobe that’s 100 percent you.
