After a couple of years in pandemic mode, 2022 has shown us that we can go back to “normal” life with caution. People are stepping out with new looks and styles, and we are so here for it. If you’re upgrading your wardrobe with some great styles, here are a few unique trends to rock this year:
Driver Shoes
Driver shoes are comfortable shoes that allow you to look fashionable for any occasion while also providing optimal comfort. With just a hint of masculinity, but bringing class to your feminine side, women’s driving shoes are fashionably ideal for whatever mood that you’re trying to exude.
Pair these shoes with ankle pants and you have a chic look for any occasion. With the weather changing as seasons turn, driver shoes are ideal for the autumn temperatures, so you’re not too warm but warm enough.
Cut-out Designs
Subtly flirtatious is the name of the game with cut-out dresses. From corner cut-outs to midriff cutouts, there are plenty of different types of cut-out styles that will accentuate your positives. However, this design can also be seen in blouses and bodysuits, so if you want to wear cut-out shirts or dresses, both are great styles to rock in 2022.
Whether you’re shopping for date night looks or for everyday styles, 2022 is when cut-out styles are shining.
Wear Bold and Beautiful
Bold colors used to remind us of the 80s, but to be honest, we’re adoring them like crazy this year. Not only are bold colors in, but so are bold patterns and bright looks that are hard to turn away from. In some places, this may be known as dopamine fashion.
Basically, if it makes you feel good and is “happening,” it’s good to go and can up your mood. Just check out the latest fashion magazine editions for a look at the kind of bright outfits that stand out in 2022.
Relaxed Suits
If you’re back to the office this year, you may be looking for stylish options for your work that provide comfort at the same time, because (let’s be real), after years of WFH we just love our comfort.
A relaxed suit allows you to look put together, while also making it easy for you to feel comfortable. From silk to linen designs, shop around for suit outfits that are “business-casual” so that you can show up in style, but feel relaxed enough to kill it at your job! If you work with an image consultant, they can help you come up with great looks.
Knit Sweaters
With fall around the corner, knit sweaters should be on your shopping list. They’re the kind of sweater that is timeless, except in 2022, we’re not afraid to wear bright, happening threads that draw attention to us. Just because it’s autumn doesn’t mean that we have to stick to warm tones for the season.
Wear bright knits or patterned ones that allow your personality to shine the way you want it to. An interesting alternative would be to knit your own sweaters for this fall, because… why not? Rock your own fashion, baby!
It’s a year to rock the styles that you love. It’s your time to stand out with the perfect looks that will have you looking as great as you feel and vice versa. Bold colors, a little bit of skin, great shoes, and so much more—you can stand out with whatever makes you feel great this year—because finally, people are encouraged to wear whatever makes them feel good… and we’re so here for this!
