The beauty of being socially connected is that geographic distances become irrelevant, and we are able to see, celebrate and reach out to one another in an unprecedented way. And when it comes to fashion, inspiration is just around the digital corner. Here are the recent streetwear trends that caught our eye.

@aomjais
1 / 21
Seoul, South Korea
Dressing for a night out, @aomjais ties together earthy tones and classic animal print. The outfit brings elegance with a dash of the unexpected - just what you’d want in a city that embraces tradition as much as progressive tech and bright skyscrapers. The black booties complete the look.

Seoul, South Korea
The ball cap, purse and glasses elevate the jean catsuit to fun and function, but it's the auntie glasses chain that we really can't get enough of. It's whimsical, but also forward. We imagine this would be a great Saturday outie to take in the sights of this beautiful city.

Seoul, South Korea
Bicycle shorts are also trending in Seoul as well! @aomjais rocks this look by mixing in a loose top and classic checkered canvas slip-ons.

@yellownya

Seoul, South Korea
@yellownya also plays with length and fit by paring loose brown shirt with black form-fitting bicycle shorts. Otherwise understated, she tops the look with a beanie, but it’s also her icy locks and baby bangs that really accentuate the look.

@_angelicakim_ blends styles and fabrics, showing her dad runners need not be restricted to function-over-fashion.

@itsdoreenpierre
6 / 21
Krueger National Park, South Africa
“Embodying the Swagger of a Leopard is a whole new mood!” @itsdoreenpierre took her dapper inspiration from nature at the Kruger National Park (just head to her profile to see the other photos in this post!) We’re loving the steady resurgence of the fanny pack, and other gender nonconforming style secrets.

Brooklyn, NY, USA
@itsdoreenpierre definitely “has the recipe for the sauce”. Comfort in your own skin and confidence are always the best outfit, and we’re also digging the jersey-bermuda shorts combo. It’s @itsdoreenpierre’s witty captions that add to the style.

@shanboody
8 / 21
Los Angeles, California, USA
@shanboody is all about confidence (just check her bio). The author-entrepreneur and all around boss-babe composes this ensemble in a way that not only turns heads with its bold cuts, but it’s the subtle layering and pops of colour that keep us looking back.

@merieljoni
9 / 21
Barcelona, Spain
Mixing a magenta ruffled pattern dress and all-white sneakers and socks works for @merieljoni in this pedestrian-friendly city. She tops off the outie with geometrical shades - another hot trend this summer. Perfect way to cast your side-eye in style.

@laurcienfuegos

Barcelona, Spain
@laurcienfuegos brings summer to the centre with this millennial pink shortie romper, and we love everything about it. Simple. Stylish.

@laurcienfuegos

Barcelona, Spain
We’re especially digging the throwback T, coupled with the dressy, high rise dusty rose pants and belt. The look really comes together with the high-shine rose-gold kicks though.

@dinakhashan
12 / 21
Berlin, Germany
As a DJ, @dinakhashan is always on the move. But her style is as creative as it is laid-back. We dig her love of music in this turntable tote. Simplicity is Queen: Bomber jacket and vintage-style flared plaid pants couple well with kicks.

Berlin, Germany
Keeping the jacket, but swapping the pants for classic blue mom jeans, and a white T with kicks keeps this look simple, yet interesting. Not to mention comfortable.

@jstflexinx
14 / 21
Braga, Portugal
@jstflexinx takes Braga, Portugal in another creative pant style - high-cut flood pants with buttons down the front, paired with black jacket and booties.

@sarasofiasalgueiro
15 / 21
Porto, Portugal
Just a 40 minute train ride south, to a region known for its fortified wines, Porto is a coastal city that inspires a summery take on a similar style: sans jacket, but with a beige high-waisted pant and crop top combo, @sarasofiasalgueiro plays up the sunshine by the river.

@ale_behr
16 / 21
Lima, Peru
We’re loving the cool way @ale_behr ties this aqua blazer with a loose, floral skirt and white kicks. The contrast is somehow complementary.

@bisendevyani
17 / 21
Mumbai, India
@bisendevyani brings the focus to her high-rise draw-string shorts with one of the trendies colours this season: persimmon.

@the_afrogirl
18 / 21
Accra, Ghana
@the_afrogirl reminds us it’s not just the outfit that makes the outfit. Everything from hair, and makeup (in this case accents of tangerine shadow and gloss) play a part in taking something from great to memorable.

@the_afrogirl

Accra, Ghana
And we can’t get enough of the patterns and colours in this beautiful smock (we could do a whole separate feature on the fashion surrounding this Ghanian cultural staple). @the_afrogirl plays it up by mixing in burgundy converse and a black corset-like belt.

@yosoylareinadelnorte
20 / 21
Ibiza, Spain
@yosoylareinadelnorte captures the bright, playful mood of a vibrant island known for its party scene and nightlife. It’s a style that could seamlessly blend into festival fashion. A monochromatic look may easily be dismissed as plain, but it’s @yosoylareinadelnorte’s blend of fabric and texture that make it anything but. A black mesh skirt is layers a bodysuit and anchors a unique leather-and-chain belt with chunky platform kicks. The playful summer hairdo also tops this outfit.

@yosoylareinadelnorte
21 / 21
Ibiza, Spain
@yosoylareinadelnorte sticks with the chunky shoes but switches things up with this bright floral bermuda pantsuit. It’s part party, part business plays up the drama in a way that reminds us that business doesn’t always mean boring.
