As the weather warms up and spring break approaches, students are eager to start buying new clothes again. Multiple online websites offer different fashion pieces, from bold shoes to chic bathing suits, and shoppers are buzzing with excitement. But with so many broad options available, it’s essential to know which trends are fading away and which ones are here to stay. Let’s explore the fashion highlights that define this upcoming spring season.
Whether you’re going on a skiing trip or a beach vacation for spring break, everyone needs a reliable pair of sneakers for walking. If you are strolling down a boardwalk or heading to après-ski activities, a stylish and comfortable pair can effortlessly complete your outfit. Beatrice Stuckey ’27 has nailed the art of choosing a good travel shoe. Choosing the right sneaker can truly make or break your overall look.
“Recently the Adidas Sambas have been super in, they have a cute chic beige/tan-ish shoe color with a hint of gold and it can bring your casual fit to a way higher level,” Stuckey said. “And I prefer a sneaker more than a boot or heel for walking around.”
When it comes to accessorizing and adding to your spring outfit, the right pieces can elevate any outfit and add a touch of your personality to your style. This season, oversized sunglasses from Ray-Ban and statement bags from The Real Real are gaining popularity. They are perfect for making a statement and breaking into summer. Angela Allen ’26 has recently gotten into the purse game and has been looking for ways to accessorize her outfits, incorporating her own personality into her cute spring fits.
“I love wearing sunglasses, it adds such a pop to your outfit,” Allen said. “You can end up building a collection, and you can choose a different pair every day to match your outfit colors.”
Patterns are super in for 2025 spring, from cheetah print and various animal prints making a comeback to polka dots and stripes; they can be super cute if styled correctly. Various brands like Kulani Kinis, Triangl and Free People have nailed all the different styles and patterns, while keeping an affordable price and great quality. Evie Baer ’28 knows a thing or two about collecting bathing suits and knowing how to tell if the money you’re spending is worth it.
“A vibrant and bright color for bathing suits is a must, and it has to be comfortable,” Baer said. “I don’t wanna spend over 100 dollars on a bathing suit, so I recommend Kulani Kinis; they are worth the money.”
As the spring season approaches, staying ahead of the new fashion trends is key to ensuring you always look good. From the comfortable must-have Adidas Sambas for easy travel to the bold oversized sunglasses and vibrant swimwear, the new trends of 2025 offer endless opportunities to show off your style. Whether you are planning for a beach getaway or casual nights out, showing off in an effortless outfit will not only elevate your wardrobe, but also make your spring experience exciting. Take this advice, get ready to put together the latest trends in your own way, and enjoy showing your unique style this season.
