Big bags are back in a big way.

In 2021, we saw dresses being styled with boots, and this style was a great way to wear your favourite dresses. But this spring season, the trend is evolving to include some western flare. The best part about western boots is that they come in all shapes, sizes, and colours to best match the vibe of your wardrobe.

Y2K fashion has been growing in popularity since 2020, so it is no surprise that low-rise jeans have come back into fashion. Although they can be a little intimidating, we love a little nostalgia. Brands like Alexander Wang and Maison Margiela have featured them on their runways, which means it’s time to get your hands on a pair. It’s the best way to channel your inner Paris and Nicole.

Denim shorts have been in style for a long time. But distressed hems may be a thing of the past. Dress shorts are versatile as you can dress them up and dress them down. Plus, they come in a ton of different fabrics, from satin to tweed, and different colours so you can express yourself with your bottoms too. These shorts are a sophisticated twist on a classic silhouette and are perfect for the spring season.

Everyone loves a cropped top. They work with every outfit as a great layering piece over long sleeve shirts or just on their own. We saw graphic cropped tops last spring, but this time around they are being transformed in a smaller way. Bra tops have been seen on Kim Kardashian and Kendall Jenner, which means they are going to be everywhere this season. Channel your favourite #Karjenner this spring with these tops.

We all love a dress, but maxi skirts are coming into style and we’re excited. Especially for the spring, maxi skirts are great because you can style them with a cropped top for the warmer days, or a cute sweater for the chillier ones. Plus, they look fashionable with a dad-style sneaker or a delicate heel.

Long Skirt, H&M, $60.

It’s all about socks and sandals

Usually, this combo is quite controversial. But it is now becoming a chic trendy statement worn by models and influencers like Emma Chamberlain. Pair a white pair of socks with a unique pair of slides or Birkenstocks, with dresses or shorts this spring. It’s a great way to break out your sandals while also keeping your toes warm.

Squeezy Slide Sandal, Nordstrom, $40.

Hanes Ankle Socks, Amazon.ca, $12-$36.

Rest assured, this new style will be a modern take on the original (and is guaranteed to be more comfortable). They flatter the waist, the bust and are size-inclusive. Perfect for a night out with friends, or under a blazer for work, these tops are going to be everywhere this spring season.
