SPRING FASHION TRENDS 2026 | what to wear this spring

Winter is almost over, can you guys believe it? Spring is one of my favorite seasons by far. Spring fashion is always so fun and I'm always so ready for a new season to start. So today of course we are going to be talking about the spring 2026 fashion trends. There are a lot of new trends this year and a lot of old trends that are still relevant and so it can get a little bit overwhelming at times. You are free to follow all, some or none of them and to avoid over consumption always make sure to buy only those that really speak to you and that are part of your personal style and who you are. So yeah without further ado let's get started. As I always do I'm going to be dividing this video in different categories. So the first category that we are going to be talking about is colors. Spring summer is super different from fall winter when it comes to colors. The first one is icy blue. We saw this color so much on the runway and a lot fashion experts say that this blue is gonna be the color of the season for this year. I'm already seeing it on stores and social media. It definitely brings spring vibes to any closet and it's a color that actually looks good in so many people and so many different skin tones. I absolutely love how this color looks on darker skins. It makes the color so much more striking. I cannot wait for I think that polos are also super pretty in this color. So next is red. Some people argue that this is not a spring color but we saw this red, any shade of red honestly, so much on the spring and summer runways. So it is definitely gonna be a big color for the spring. Red is one of those colors that just speaks for itself whenever you want to feel classy, elevated but look also striking and sexy. It doesn't really matter what you wear as long as it's in red you are going to achieve all of that. I love red. Again, I think it looks great with so many different skin tones and also as there's not a particular shade of red that is trendier than others, you can play around with it. You can follow this trend and adjust it to your skin tone and what kind of red looks good on you because everyone looks good in some type of red and I will die on this hill. Next is yellow and specifically, although I don't think it's only about a yellow, also about a yellow. This is a color that was super trendy last spring then we took a break from it during fall and winter and now it's back and it's gonna be back very very strong as well as it is happening with red that not all shades of red look good on everyone, not all shades of yellow look good on everyone, so we are adjusting the shades of yellow that look good on us so that's why other shades of yellow are also gonna be trendy, not only body yellow. I love the matching sets, I love a monochrome outfit in this color, I love a dress in this color, a big flowing maxi skirt. It's a color for those people that maybe like to go a bit more neutral and don't really like a very bold color and it always looks so clean and put together and classy. Next is pink, now this is a color I do not see many people talk about but again a color that we saw so much on the runway and that I'm already seeing a lot on stores and on social media as well. Now I think this year is gonna be the beginning of this color this past years we have not been wearing pink that much but 2026 is gonna be the starting year and the year that is gonna bring out the pink again and I'm so here for it. I absolutely love pink, it's such a girly color but at the same time I think you can look so bossy and so classy and elegant with a color like this. Again I love dresses in this color, I love tops, I love matching sets, I love skirts like give me anything in pink honestly like I will wear it no matter what it is. Next up is color blocking, now this is not a color in particular but I've put it inside of this category because we are seeing so much and we also saw so much on the runway the color blocking. As I said at the beginning spring is all about bringing colors into our closet again and just having fun wearing vibrant fun colors. Now we are starting to mix those colors that we already have in our closet. I think it's fun, it's different, I'm not sure if it's my personal style but I think that it can be done in a way where it's not super over the top. You can do it in a simple way you know but you can also go all out and mix more than four colors. And then also monochromatic, again a trend that we saw so much on the runway and it's a trend that I'm already seeing so much on social media, on the street, on stores. I've always loved monochromatic, it is such an easy way to dress and look instantly put together and instantly classy. I always say when in doubt just wear monochromatic if you want to wear color but it never works out for you or you don't know how to wear that piece of clothing that it has a bold color let's say in red for instance just wear monochromatic just try a monochromatic outfit and it will instantly work it will instantly look super cute. If I had to pick a favorite I think I would go for a monochromatic red look but I also love pink, I also love blue and I also love yellow so yeah. Moving on to the next category is prints. What are the prints that are going to be trendy for this spring because as well as with color during spring, spring summer when the season starts we incorporate a lot of new fun prints. So the first one is the Bambi print. I'm sure that you have already been seeing this trend a little bit lately, it is a trend that started a little bit during fall and winter and it's definitely gonna continue for spring. If you love it just go for it. The only issue I have with this print is that I'm so sure this is gonna be a micro trend and it's gonna die so fast and personally the styles that I like or the pieces of clothing that I like in this print are super expensive so I'm like I'm not gonna spend that much money for a piece of clothing that I might wear this year, maybe next year and that's it. That's just my opinion though, I think that if you love this print you can definitely jump on it, it's very fun, very different. I always love an animal print and this is maybe more stylish and more minimal than a cheetah print or a zebra print. Next is plaid. Now here this is what I love, this is what I cannot wait to wear. I've never liked this print because I am not a fan of the gray or brown plaid but I've been seeing recently new styles come out with more vibrant colors with plaid, yellow, pink. I love the pink sets and the pink jackets, I think they are so freaking cute and so different from anything I've seen in a while. I also love the skirts, they are gorgeous and the matching sets like do not even get me started with the matching sets because I want them all and I know I don't need them all but yeah I'm very very excited about this trend, I really really love it. Next is of course the polka dots. Polka dots were super super trendy last spring and summer and they of course came back for 2026. I called it, I knew that polka dots were gonna have a moment for a long time. I still think that polka dots are timeless, I think they are gonna be trendy for a very long time and this year they are gonna be everywhere, I'm already seeing it everywhere, we saw them a lot a lot on the runway as well. It is my favorite trend by far, if I had to pick only one trend to wear forever, my whole life, it would be polka dots and you know we are starting to see other colors of polka dots but the white background with the black dots are unbeatable, they look super classy, so cute and so fun and it's a print that looks on pretty much everyone in all different skin tones. Then stripes, again a trend that was super trendy last year, this year they are also gonna be here and very very big because as well as with polka dots we also saw them a ton on the runway. I'm seeing so many brands coming out with beautiful amazing striped pieces of clothing that I honestly I need to relax and not buy. Now I'm starting to regret saying that I would only wear polka dots for the rest of my life if I only had to pick one print because now I'm like but stripes, maybe stripes actually because with this print you can do so much more, there's so many more variations. I love when there's an outfit and you mix different types of stripes, ones that are thicker and ones that are thinner, that looks so amazing. There's an outfit I have from a runway that I want to recreate so bad because I just fell in love with it instantly and I really really want to recreate it but yeah stripes are definitely gonna be here to stay and I'm here for it, I love it. Actually let me know, do you prefer polka dots or stripes? I think stripes are gonna win but you never know. Do you like more stripes or polka dots? The next category is clothing. This is gonna be all of these pieces of clothing that don't really fall in any of the other categories and are just very specific items that are gonna be trendy for this spring 2026. So the first one is the mandarin jacket. These are traditional Chinese inspired jackets with the frog knot closure. This jacket is beautiful, I really really love it, it's perfect for my minimal clean girl aesthetic girlies that just want to still remain inside their aesthetic but maybe want to bring a different touch and want to refresh their closet a little bit with a piece of clothing that is a bit more fun and a bit more different. I have on my wish list one that is in red, it's super beautiful and these jackets, even though they are trendy at the moment, I feel like they are also very timeless and also not only the mandarin jacket is going to be trendy but also the frog knot, just the frog knot. I'm seeing so many different tops now with this closure and I have a feeling that this is going to be a very big trend now and also in the future. Next is the napoleon jacket that must not be mistaken and not mixed up with the mandarin jackets because they are different. They look slightly similar more so when they are in a white monochromatic color but they can also be very very different. The napoleon jacket is shorter, sometimes cropped, the closure and the buttons and the design is totally different. I personally like this better when there's more than one color. I love this one for instance that is blue and the drawings of the buttons are in white. I think it's very fun but also very classy at the same time. If I had to choose between the mandarin jacket and the napoleon jacket, I would personally go for the mandarin just because it just matches my style a little bit more. If you are more of a maximalist just go for this and if you are more of a minimalist go for the mandarin jacket. Next is asymmetric. We are seeing a lot of asymmetric skirts, long, meaty, short skirts. The ones I'm seeing the most are definitely meaty. I'm also seeing dresses with this asymmetric design but at the end of the day it is just a skirt that has the asymmetric bottom or hem. You know a couple of years ago the skirt that was very trendy was the maxi skirts, those that were leaning or cotton and now it's time for this one. We are slowly moving away from the very clean girl aesthetic and people are starting to incorporate more maximalist looks and clothing into their closets so this is a great skirt for those who are not very sure of this maximalist aesthetic but they also want to maybe move away a little bit from the clean girl aesthetic. This is kind of a mix between the two, you know what I mean? And more so depending on the color that you get or the print that you get. Next are the balloon pants. These have been a little bit trendy already so it is definitely a trend that is gonna continue. Balloon pants are so fun. I know they are not for everyone but the more outfits I see in them, the more I love them. I don't particularly love the white ones. I've said this before. I think they remind me too much of those parachute pants that were trendy four to five years ago. I love the brown ones or upper black balloon pants. I think it's also super fun. Even burgundy. It's super beautiful and I'm also seeing plaid balloon pants that are super fun. And then recently we have been starting to see these ones that have a lace hem and these are going to be very very popular during the spring and summer. Next is the funnel neck blazer. Funnel neck has been very very trendy and for the spring we have a new jacket but at the end of the day it's just a blazer with the neckline undone and closed at the top. A lot of people achieve this look with a brooch. I'm not sure how to pronounce that. You just undo the neckline of your blazer and you just grab it with a brooch at the top of the neck. And that looks super pretty honestly. I think it's very cute and you don't need to buy anything new to jump on this trend. And it just brings that little extra special detail to a simple blazer that otherwise might be a little outdated or we might be a little bit tired of blazers. I don't know, it's very fun. I do really like it. I'm definitely gonna try it with some of my blazers. It's very classy, very elegant. Next is the belted jacket. Now here we find either leather jackets, trench coats and also blazers. As you can see in these pictures, it's just any type of jacket that then we are starting to incorporate a belt just at the bottom of it. That it goes just a little bit lower than your waistline. It's again a trend that you can definitely do with jackets that you already own. You just need to find a belt that matches the color of the jacket or of the blazer that you have. I actually really really love this trend and I also love the fact that there's some that are longer and that they almost create like a skirt, like a very small skirt. It's very cute and I'm very very obsessed with it. Next are the cinch in tops or blazers and jackets. There's a continuing trend from last year. It's definitely still gonna be here to stay. I've said this before but we are slowly moving away from the very oversized clothing. In the 80s silhouette, a more tailored look is now trendier than the very oversized look. They are super elegant. I really really love them. They are also very very flattering and it's a piece of clothing that everyone needs in their closet. If you want a top or a jacket that is a bit more elevated but not too much, this is the perfect jacket and I'm telling you they look good with everything and they are super flattering. Then the bermuda shorts. Now I just said that we are moving away from the oversized but then we are also moving away from the very short shorts. People are tired. I'm tired to just have my booty out and to be so uncomfortable when all these shorts just get up and you know what I mean, right? It just gets very uncomfortable on your crotch. So I'm here for it. I really love bermuda shorts but it is true that they don't look good with everything. If you really want a bermuda short to be flattering, you have to wear it with either heels or with a very thin sandal. Otherwise, your legs can appear short and your whole body can appear very short and wider at the same time. So you have to be careful what you style with these bermuda shorts and they are a little bit more difficult to style than a pair of very short shorts but if you do it right, they are so classy and so stylish. Next are the capes. Again, a continuing trend. This is almost like an accessory more than a piece of clothing but you can definitely find tops that kind of emulate this style. I love capes. They are very elegant, very classy and I honestly cannot wait to start seeing more spring and definitely summer outfits with this type of capes because I feel like the styles that I've seen that I like the most are either for fall and winter and I'm excited to see what people come out with this year with these capes. Next is layering. Now, this is not a particular type of clothing but it's something that we have been seeing a lot on the runway for spring and summer and I am starting to see it a lot as well on the stores and on social media. It is essentially layering your clothes, layering your tops as much as you can and as much as you want. You can layer a polo over a t-shirt, over a tank top and the trick is that you need to be able to see the layers and it's more fun when also the layers are different colors. My favorite look is when you style maybe like a short sleeve with a tank top or a long sleeve with a tank top on top and also when you style two shirts one on top of the other and they are different colors. I think that also looks very fun. Moving on to the next category, we are going to talk about fabrics because as well as with colors and with prints, when we move from one season to the other, the fabrics change a lot. So the first one is fringe. Fringe has officially come back in style, come back in trend. It's a trend that we saw a lot on the spring and summer runway of this 2026. I'm already seeing so many people on social media wear fringe and I'm also seeing it on stores of course. In the past I never liked fringe. I feel like it looked a little bit too boho for my personal style but I like that the styles that we are seeing this year or this yeah this past month and this year they are much more stylish and way more elevated and classy so I do like this type of fringe. My favorites are definitely the skirts. If I ever jump on this trend I would get either skirt or this kind of wrapping scarves that have the fringe. Then lace. We all know the lace trimming has been trendy for this past year during the whole 2025 and it's a trend that is just getting bigger. It's just getting started. We started with the lace trimming and now it's lace everything. Lace everywhere. I love lace so much. I've always dreamt of having a lace wedding dress. It is such a timeless fabric. It's so elegant, so chic and classy but at the same time it has this girly touch and this sexy touch that I absolutely love. I love when something is very classy but a little bit sexy you know because it's at the end of the day quite sheer and I need to stop myself when I see all of the new pieces of clothing that are coming out in lace because I will buy everything. I will buy everything. Next is leather. Now it is quite rare to see leather during spring. It's not rare but we see leather much more during fall and winter but we saw leather so much on the runway. Of course also suede but the leather jackets, the suede jackets, even skirts, pants, matching sets are gonna be super trendy for this spring and it's not something that we usually see but I'm here for it. I love a leather skirt with a short sleeve or a leather jacket with shorts. When you have this juxtaposition of fabrics it's so fun and so interesting to look at. Next is dark denim. Jeans are always gonna be a staple and a timeless piece but for 2025 and also for 2026 the color or the shade of denim that we are seeing the most or that it's the trendiest is the dark denim and it's because dark denim is the classier version of a jean. This dark shade instantly brings more seriousness into an outfit and it instantly dresses up the look a little bit more. You don't look as casual with a dark jean than with a light jean. Then we have the tassels. I'm sure you have been seeing this trend all over the place. We started to see this tassel necklaces and accessories and scarves for spring and summer last year then it continued a little bit for fall but not really and now it's definitely coming back for this year. It's a very specific type of clothing that either you love or you don't and if it's not really your style I would not jump on it because I'm not sure how much this is gonna last. I think this is gonna be a micro trend and yeah next year I don't think they are still gonna be relevant but they are very cute. If you like them definitely go for it. Next are the pendants. Now these ones are a little bit more timeless. You can definitely get a pendant with a tassel but I'm referring to the pendants that do not have a tassel. So these big old long pendants have been very trendy also last year and they are still gonna continue for this year and this year the new pendants that I'm seeing are the ones that are coin holders and almost card holders that are bigger. I mean they are fun, they are different. I'm not a super fan of them. I prefer just a gold or a silver pendant. I think it's a bit more classy but I mean they are functional and they look cute so yeah. Next are the low waist belts. These big thick belts that are worn with a low waisted skirt or pants or trousers or jeans or shorts anything honestly. They are also worn on top of a long top which I think is also a very fun look even on top of dresses. This is very Y2K. One thing I love about this trend it's very versatile depending on the look that you wear, depending on the belt that you wear, it can go from very classy not very classy but put together and kind of minimal to very dodgy and Y2K. Next are the corset belts. Now these are definitely way more elevated, way more dressy and put together. This is a new trend definitely that we have not been seeing for a very long time and essentially are these belts that are almost like a corset. They go on your waist, they are very thick and they are layered on top of your blazers, on top of shirts, tops. It goes really well with the fact that we are moving away from the very oversized looks and it's a way to wear your oversized blazers for instance and translate them to this more 80s tailoring that we are loving. The next category I'm gonna be talking about is bags. I of course did not forget about the bags. Not always we see a lot of new styles trending but this year I'm seeing a lot of new styles. So the first is the clutch. Now this is a trend that we saw non-stop on the spring and summer runways. Pretty much all bags and pretty much all the brands had a clutch bag in different colors. We saw them small, we saw them skinny, we saw them big and we saw them thick. It was just a matter that it had to be a clutch and this is a trend that it's already translating to streetwear. The clutch is the it bag for this season and for this year for sure. Next is the short handle tote or the short handle more elevated bag. Again a trend that we saw so much on the runway and a trend that I'm already seeing a lot on streetwear as well. There's little variations from this trend but at the end of the day is a bag with a short handle that it can be very oversized and almost like a tote bag or it can be more like a kelly or a but it always has to be at least medium size. Also on the runway we saw a lot this new trend where the bag is half open and you can see the inside of the bag and so then you have to also take care of how the inside of the bag looks like and we saw also dual tone bags where the inside was a different color than the outside. Next is the barrel bag. Again a bag that we saw a lot on the runway and definitely a bag that I'm already seeing a ton on the streetwear as well and on social media. I think it's fun, it's different, it's maybe not my favorite but their styles I like more than others although I think that this is not very timeless. There's other bags that are way more timeless than this but this is cute, different and maybe a bit more youthful. Then the oversized east to west bags. The east to the west bags are a type of bag that we have been seeing a lot and now we are making them way more functional for day-to-day wear and we are making them bigger. This is one of my favorite types of bags apart from the clutch and the short tote. These are very pretty and very comfortable and as they are not very big they cannot get too heavy. The next category is shoes. When we change the season the shoes change a lot. This year we have a couple of new shoe trends. The first are the wedges. I'm sure that you have already been seeing this type of shoes a little bit because I'm already seeing it a lot on the stores. This type of heel literally almost conquered the spring and summer runways this year. I love how they give such body energy but at the same time very chic energy. There are so many different styles of this type of shoes. You can find the ones that are in wood, then the ones that are like a thong sandal with a wedge. Talking about that the next trend is the thong sandals. We are of course seeing a lot of thong sandals with a wedge but also with a thin heel or just flats. Many people would argue that these are timeless and I do have to agree but at the same time they are very trendy and definitely the wedge thong sandal is the trendiest of this style. Next is slingback. If the model was not wearing a wedge she was wearing a slingback with a very pointy tall heel this spring summer runway. The YSL slingbacks are getting super popular and these don't look very comfortable. I personally don't think I can walk in these heels but if you can you go girl. Next are the loafers and the tabis. This is not a new trend, it's definitely a continuing trend but I thought I needed to mention it because we are of course still gonna see a lot of loafers and a lot of tabis for this spring. It's kind of becoming both the loafer and the tabi kind of the must-have shoe for spring. Then we have the mule or the slip-ons. Any type of shoe that you can imagine but in a slip-on version is what's the trendiest for this spring. Again it's a type of shoe that we saw a lot on the runways. I get the convenience of them, they are very convenient and very easy to put on and take off but for me personally these type of shoes make my feet sweat a lot and I always feel like I need a little bit more security on my foot. I don't know, that's kind of random but I do like, I do very like how they look but I prefer to wear all the type of shoes. Let me know what you think about this. Would you wear them? Then we have the slim sneakers and the double lace. These are the two type of sneakers that are going to be trendy for this spring. If you want to buy any sneaker this season make sure it's either a slim sneaker with a very clean design or it has a double lace or both of them. When you want to look a bit more classy and put together but you still want to wear a sneaker this slim sneaker is a great style and the double lace is just fun.
