4 easy-to-wear mini-trends to elevate our spring looks – Elle

Tie-dye print, biker look, maxi denim skirt, low waist… Many of the spring-summer 2023 fashion trends can be difficult for most of us to adopt. Whether we have a chic and minimalist style, casual or relaxed, some pieces simply do not match our personality and our look. If the different cuts and materials and the different trendy prints have the ability to take a look from simple to sharp, other trends, much less seen on the catwalks or the clothes racks of shops but often easier to adopt, have that same power. We then turn to them to develop fashionable outfits, without overdoing it. Here are the 4 mini-trends to adopt this spring to upgrade our seasonal outfits.

Sensual but always elegant, the bardot neck top has it all. This spring, we particularly like it in jersey and lightly draped. It takes our style up a notch when paired with straight, cropped jeans, a pencil skirt or flared shorts. With short or long sleeves, in the form of a bodysuit or classic top, in bright or neutral colours… Whatever happens, we’re betting on the bardot neckline to bring an extra touch of style to our spring outfits!

Mid-length straight dress

We could also call it the T-shirt dress, but that wouldn’t do justice to this ultra-simple fashion piece to adopt. And for good reason: with a straight cut, a length reaching mid-calf, this style of dress stands out with its terribly effective minimalist look. Be careful though: out of the question to opt for a cotton model except if it is to stroll by the sea. We put on satin or silk and neutral colors to upgrade this piece with a sophisticated touch. More relaxed than a slipdress, it has the advantage of being worn with absolutely everything: Birkenstock sandals, retro trainers or heels, under a blazer jacket or an oversized perfecto.

Mules with wedge heels

Straight back from the 2000s, mules with wedge heels will add a twist to our spring looks. With 7/8 jeansth, a fluid and printed skirt or straight pants, these are the little shoes to adopt to bring a fashionable touch to a look this season. And they are much more comfortable than you think! A bohemian model like the one imagined by Mango, romantic and chic like the one from Rouje… Many brands are offering this preppy shoe in their current collections. Something to take a little height, in every sense of the word!

Striped jeans

The big jeans trends of the moment are wide cuts, baggy type, and cargo details. If these styles are not to our liking, we are turning to striped jeans this spring, which are easier to wear! Indeed, fine stripes decorate our denims on all our favorite cuts this season, giving a light twist to this spring essential. For a casual-chic look, we combine striped blue jeans with an oversized white shirt, but if we want to bring a little color to our outfit, we choose red or green jeans with white stripes, which we wear with a graphic print t-shirt and a pair of trendy shoes.
