The change of seasons is an exciting time in the world of fashion. As we move into the cooler months in the southern hemisphere our friends up north are getting ready to embrace Spring fashion trends. So what's in store for fashion trends 2024? Read on for our take and how to incorporate it into your wardrobe to look and feel your best.
Wardrobe Essentials for Effortless Style
Master the Basics: Must-Have Pieces for Any Wardrobe
Timeless style and quality wardrobe staples are the back bone of a capsule wardrobe so we're loving the current trend of 'quiet luxury'. Think simplistic chic dressing featuring core items such as a crisp white shirt under a well -fitting blazer jacket. Style icons such as Carolyn Bessette-Kennedy and Amal Clooney are known for their understated looks that exude a premium feel. No flashy logos or prints here! Think designers such as Ralph Lauren and Max Mara, both of which sit perfectly alongside Australian women's designer Mela Purdie. Renowned for her quality and classic styling that is perfect for travel.
Enhance Your Essentials with Modern Touches
Going hand in hand with the styling trends of quiet luxury dressing is the preppy aesthetic that we are here for! Think button up shirts, chinos, pleat details and vests that give off those country club vibes. 'Tenniscore' is tied to the preppy look after the most recent glam slam tournaments have been taken over by players wives and girlfriends wearing designers such as Prada and track jackets by Lacoste.
Layer cashmere vests over your favourite white shirt, team your blazer with a great pair of jeans and dust off those sneakers! And keep in mind any style trend is open for interpretation, don't be afraid to personalise the latest fashion trends to suit your individual style.
Accessorise Like a Pro: Bags, Shoes, and Scarves
The Perfect Purse for Every Occasion
The perfect purse is every woman's best friend and at Impulse we are big believers in quality over quantity knowing that a premium product will never go out of style. When choosing a new hand bag be sure to consider its purpose and where you plan on taking it. For an everyday choose a bag that will fit all your essentials in a durable material such as leather or neoprene. Tote bags or shoulder bags are great choices. For running errands we love a smaller cross body bag that gives a hands free option and won't weigh you down.
Trend-Setting Footwear in 2024
This year comfort is key. We are seeing options that lean into various style trends. Opt for a pair of classic ballet flats in a nod to the hyper feminine 'girl core' trend. Or bring out some box fresh sneakers and remain comfy while showing off a preppy athlesuire look. Or why not experiment with one of this years pop colours and add a pair of shoes in your favourite hue to complete your look.
Add Texture and Colour with a Scarf
With so many styling trends swirling for 2024 we think accessories are the perfect way to dip your toe into a new fashion trend. In Autumn Winter layering a scarf can bring warmth, texture and personality to any outfit. It's a great way to try a trend without fully committing. Scarves are versatile and practical making them the perfect styling companion. We will never not travel with a cashmere wrap on a plane ever again!
Denim Done Right: Mastering the Jeans Game
Denim Styles for Every Body Type
Denim jeans will never go out of fashion regardless of how shapes and cuts may change. True style is finding the perfect pair that flatters your shape which gives off that understated luxury vibe. Wide legs and slightly lower rise jeans are still going strong however a classic straight leg in a premium denim is timeless. A darker indigo wash can give a polished and more dressy finish where a classic wash blue is perfect for everyday. When shopping for jeans keep an open mind and be prepared to try on a lot of jeans! Take multiple sizes in the same pair into the fitting room with you and go for comfort over what the tag says. A quality pair of jeans will feel substantial yet soft and in time, will mould to your body for that perfect fit.
Beyond Basic Blues: Styling Denim for Different Looks
Gone are the days when jeans were limited to weekends and casual affairs. The right pair of designer denim jeans can take you anywhere. For dressier or professional occasions opt for a clean dark wash with tonal stitching and minimal treatment to give a polished look. For everyday, go for comfort with a soft washed denim and wear them in! Jeans truly do get better with age!
