Pink and Red
Daring fashionistas and classic dressers alike are rocking this craze from head to toe, since the pairing can be as bold or as muted as you want. For a quieter take, opt for a two-toned pink-and-red maxi that’s all-in without being over the top.

English Countryside
The English countryside immediately brings to mind rose gardens, shabby-chic furniture, and floral linens. For an outfit that’s right at home in this setting, marry tweed and plaid, layer a turtleneck under a chunky knit, and finish it off with over-the-knee boots. (Cup of Earl Grey in hand, of course.)

French Girl
There’s no denying that the fashion world has been pulling major inspiration from 1970s-era French flair. Dressing like a Parisian is about mastering the mix of easygoing yet sultry style. For evening, wear a ruffled and plunging maxi topped by a leather beret, or for daytime, throw on a pair of straight-leg jeans and a tee under a glitzy blazer.

Island Boho
The bohemian babe is back – with a twist. This time around, the trend is infused with some island sensibility. Think: eye-catching patterns, embroidered shoes, breezy blouses, and flowing maxis. Carry the free-spirited vibe into 2018 by putting on a printed A-line dress, gold-tone jewelry, and Chelsea boots.

Shades of Blue
Designers favored the color blue in 2017, and the hue made an appearance on runways across New York Fashion Week. From cobalt to cerulean, powder to periwinkle, lapis to electric, the entire spectrum will still be seen next year. Go monochrome for the full effect, or try incorporating white and grey accents for a restrained take on the trend.
