Fashion & Trends

What’s Trending in 2022

Let’s be honest, the pandemic has made us so lazy to dress up and look our best. Many fashionistas have fallen into the monotony of wearing dull sweatpants. So, if you’re trying to re-enter the world of fashion, but you’re not sure where to start, you’re in the right place. Join us as we explore some of our favourite trends in 2022.

Chunky Bags & Shoes

If you’re not into bold clothing, then at least spice it up with bold accessories. Think chunky platforms, loud bags, and stacked beaded jewellery.

Periwinkle

Periwinkle is the colour of the year! So, if you’re looking to add a new colour to your wardrobe, make sure it’s in the purple-blue hues. 

Pearlcore

Pearls are back! Known among the fashion set as "pearlcore," the trend is not only worn around the necks of the fashionable but also included in accessories like headbands, handbags and even clothing items.

Silk

Last year, silk cami dresses were all the rage–and we’re not getting rid of it any time soon. In fact, we’re seeing more silk items than ever before. Think silk skirts, blouses, purses, scarves and more. 

Sparkling Style

With Y2K fashion peaking at an all-time high, it’s clear that fun and flirty looks trump bland clothing and accessories. Glitter, sequences and shimmer are clearly very trendy this year. In fact, designers like Tom Ford have sent models dazzling and sparkling down the Spring/Summer 2022 runways.

Pleated Skirts

On the runway and in the streets, we’re seeing more and more pleated midi skirts–and we’re here for it. Whether it’s silky, printed, colourful, or plain–we want it all.

Pair a pleated skirt with a bralette in the warmer weather or a knitted jersey to stay stylish during the colder days. 

Straps

Straps on crop tops, flare-legged pants and sandals are everything right now. If you’re into showing off a bit of skin, make sure your ensemble includes some sexy straps for a trendy look. 

Matching Sets

Matching sets are one of our favourite trends because they’re perfect all year round. Knit skirt and top sets make it easy to transition from season to season with layering. Besides, they're the perfect item for busy fashionistas because they're a complete outfit on their own.
