16 Street Fashion Trends from the Runways

Winter is right around the corner, and fashion-forward ladies all know what this means; it’s time to update our wardrobes for the next season to come – spring! Street fashion will rule this spring as everyone begins to enjoy the warm outdoors again, shedding the heavy fabrics and bulky layers of winter clothing to make way for breezier looks. 

Get ready to plan your spring fashion collection with inspiration from the top street trends spotted on the fashion runways!

1. Head-to-Toe Denim

Designers have not gotten over the full-on denim trend, as evidenced by the profusion of denim-on-denim outfits that graced the Spring 2018 shows. 

Channel this favorite trend in a denim one-piece denim dress. Just warm enough for the transition from winter to spring! Add a fun pair of denim boots or sandals for extra street style points.

The trick to street style clothing is to put your own unique spin on a current trend. How about pulling off that denim-on-denim look with a distressed denim jacket and thigh-high denim boots? Of course, you have to wear denim shorts too!

2. Sheer Moments   

Perhaps in anticipation of warmer days and nights, wearing sheer layers has become a trend for spring. Say goodbye to the winter cold in a fiery orange top or dress that’s sheer enough to show off what’s underneath without going naked.

3. Pretty in Pink 

Just like with head-to-toe denim, the all-over pink trend is going all the way to Spring 2018. You really can’t argue that pink is a great color for spring fashion, reflecting the movement of the seasons as the winter snow melts away and the flowers begin to bloom!

4. Spring Florals 

Speaking of flowers, pretty floral prints are once again a street fashion staple. Stay breezy in a light, wrap-around dress that’s perfect for greeting the spring weather!

5. Burst of Orange

Tangerine shades have been spotted on and outside the runways. For a cool and casual look, pair a bright orange top with your favorite ripped jeans and finish with another popular street style trend – minimalist white shoes. Or, be an urban fashion diva in a solid tangerine tunic dress with minimal yet playful accents.

6. Artsy Prints

Eye-popping, artsy prints were seen all over the runways and out on the streets of Fashion Week. Play with quirky designs like this newspaper-inspired dress or this trendy cardigan with its explosion of colorful tribal patterns.

7. Super Short Shorts

Spring is definitely the time to whip out those shorts again. After being covered up all winter, let your legs breathe in the cutest shorts you can find. Convert those old denims into cutoffs, or hit up the wholesale shorts section of your favorite online stores for those super trendy deals!

8. Graffiti Inspirations

Street fashion has always been about letting your personality shine through your clothes. That little burst of individuality is what makes street style so much fun and intriguing. Show off your quirky side by wearing a bold, graffiti-style shirt together with neutral pieces, or DIY a jacket with your favorite slogan.

9. Pastel Hues   

We transition from strong reds to soft, pastel hues for spring. Choose an outfit with interesting little details that draw the eye!

10. The Fanny Pack Accessory 

The fanny pack has become the indispensable accessory for lazy spring days. Not only does it keep your essentials within easy reach, it leaves your hands free to do other stuff. Perfect for multi-tasking! They’re particularly handy when you’re holding a cup of coffee in one hand and biting into a tasty breakfast croissant in your other hand.

11. Fringe Action

Fringe has been in for quite a while this year and it looks like that’s not going away soon. Add some fringe action into your spring fashion wardrobe with a fringe miniskirt, or have it on your bag as an accessory detail. Keep the street style vibe by mixing with simple, trendy pieces. Or, go the full runway route with an entire fringed dress. 

12. Mixed Prints

Not only are prints so in, but mixing prints is even more street style savvy. Pair florals with geometric prints, or small prints and large ones as you put together your trendy outfits for spring.

13. Fun Polka Dots

There’s really no shortage of love for prints on the streets. The polka dot is another popular print from Fashion Week. Larger dots are favored over the tiny ones, so you might want to go bigger and brighter if you’re planning to grab a polka dot outfit for spring.

14. All Suited Up  

Menswear-inspired blazers and full suits were popular outfits during Fashion Week. If you’re looking to adopt this trend, go for checked or plaid designs, and swap the fitted styles in favor of slightly oversized ones.

15. One-of-a-Kind Eyewear

The standout street style accessory for spring is a pair of whimsical sunglasses. Choose quirky shapes, unconventional prints, or off-the-wall accents for a truly head-turning piece. For best effect, find one that could match the rest of your outfit and doesn’t clash with any other colors or prints that you may be wearing.

16. Vertical Stripes

Stripes are still one of the most popular patterns out there, but for spring, vertical is the way to go. For an ultra-trendy look, go for a striped dress in soft pastel hues.

What makes street style such a fun source of inspiration is how there is a lot more freedom in putting together your outfits. You’re never fully bound by rules or restricted by convention. You are free to experiment, play around with styles, and add your own little details and embellishments. 

It is fashion that showcases your individuality to the fullest, so after you have taken in all these trends, fire up your creativity and put together some spring outfits that are totally YOU.
