style: what clothes/accessories I'm searching for in spring & summer 2023
here are 10 items that I am on the look out for right now. By no means is this a comprehensive list, and it's incredibly likely I won't have added all of these to my wardrobe by fall '23. However, these are all pieces that I have found myself looking for while I'm shopping or browsing online.
I feel like 2023 is the year that I am prioritizing my own tastes and trying to rely less on trends. I'm honestly copying my mom's style when I was a kid, but doing it my way. Currently I am really embracing color back into my wardrobe. After high school I really stayed in our uniform color palette (maroon, black, white, tan, navy), but I'm coming to the realization that the bright colors I wore as a kid are more suited to my complexion as opposed to the dark/vampy vibe I was rocking in college. Don't get me wrong, I still adore a neutral base- but instead of black we're thinking creams and whites and browns, and I think it's time to bring in some color!!! idk but we're making it happen.
It's been a slow and intentional transition, because in addition to wanting to change my wardrobe theme in general, I've graduated college and now need professional wardrobe as well.
1- white linen pants
I love a wide leg trouser, it's flattering on almost anyone, and they are comfy af while also having a sophisticated look. They fall perfectly into that masculine silhouette that is all the rave in Swedish/Norwegian fashion- and with the linen they will be a great choice of pant during the hot season. I also think that these can be work appropriate as well with the correct styling!
Outside of the aesthetics and wearability, I linked this pair/brand because I want to be a resource for my tall girls! I have spent the majority of my life being H E A V I L Y disenfranchised with fashion and it's industry as a whole because of how limited my options were as a tall and curvy teenager. but guess what, times are changing! There are options for us, now more than ever, and I'm not going to choose to be disappointed in my clothes anymore.
2- black a-line skirts
3- blouses
4- brown leather sandals -
5- vests
6- mary jane's / flats
7- cardigans
8- loose fit denim
9-cowboy / knee high boots
10- sundresses
... and that completes my run down of what fashion items I'm searching for right now! This list is me trying to stay away from trendy items I know I'll be throwing away a year from now, (idk about cowboy boots tbh but I'll force myself to wear them idc) but some trends that I've seen and am loving are maxi denim skirts, colorful quilted jackets, and anything backless.
You can find my fashion inspiration on my 'fashion' Pinterest board. Found here. <3
Thank you for reading. As always, it's been a pleasure.
