2024 Trend predictions

Peach Fuzz

Pantone announced earlier in December that the color of the year for 2024 would be ‘Peach Fuzz’. At first we were skeptical, maybe because peach doesn’t really flatter our skintones, but then it started growing on us when we made this mood board. We think the key to trying this trend will be finding the shade of peach that flatters your skintone. Darker, olive skintones should lean toward apricot shades, while lighter skintones can lean into more pinky, baby peach shades.

BALLETCORE

Maybe it was the Barbiecore craze in 2023 or a total 180 from the more tailored, masculine looks we’ve been seeing, but we think 2024 will see a return of super girly accessories, so we’re calling it balletcore. Think bows, ballet flats (yes, they’re still in!), lace, soft pinks, tulle, ruffles, and feminine silhouettes. These will be balanced out by masculine touches like leather, metallics, chunky sneakers, and baggy jeans. It’s more of a ballet grunge feel!

LEOPARD

We’ve always loved leopard and don’t think it’s ever ‘in’ or ‘out’ but have been seeing it more often in stores lately. You can treat leopard as a neutral and add it in small doses to any outfit for a funky flair.

Pop of Red

We don’t think this ‘trend’ is going anywhere anytime soon! Add a pop of red to your look for French girl chic vibes. An additional note on this one… we were watching White Christmas the other day and noticed that Betty wore a red scarf in one of the scenes. In the same scene Judy had on a buttery yellow coat with leopard accessories. It’s crazy how cyclical trends are. They always, always come back around! Don’t let us or any marketing fool you into making a large purchase you don’t love just to stay on trend. If you really love it, it’s worth the investment because you’ll wear it no matter what. If you’re on the fence, then go with an affordable option to try the trend. Then you can see if you like it enough to make an investment.

TIGHTS & SOCKS

We think tights with dresses + shorts, socks with heels, and sock-looking shoes will be big this year! Linked several options below for affordable ways to try the trend.
