1. Pastels & Ruffles - In yer face, soft and sweet!
Leave those dark winter shades in the dust, 'cause this season's all about soft, pale pastels and ruffles. Mocha Mousse, Pantone's color of the year, is shaping up to be the new chocolate brown. Ruffles add a touch of feminine flair.
If pastels ain't your scene, incorporate them as accents. Pop a ruffle collar on a top, add pastel piping, color-block a sleeve, or whip up a tote bag with some extra ruffles.

4. Tartan Revival: Not just for fall anymore!
Tartan ain't just for autumn. This season, flannel skirts, lightweight coats, and ruffled check dresses are taking the fashion world by storm. Claudia Winkleman's black kilt in The Traitors Season 3 had us loving this look even more.

5. Soft Sheers & Romantic Layers: "Naked" dressing made practical!
Delicate pastels and sheer fabrics create a dreamy, romantic vibe. This "naked dressing" trend may feel scary, but you can tone it down for everyday wear by adding a modesty layer underneath.
Use sheer fabrics as overlays on skirts or sleeves instead of making an entire garment out of them. Layer with slips or camisoles for a modest, sophisticated look.
