Exciting New Trends for Spring!

Exciting new trends are on the rise for Spring! The ladies at Vivian O'Nay just returned from the first apparel show of 2023. Items are already starting to arrive in store, and we are so excited to bring the latest fashions to you.

As most of us already know- trends have a way of making their way back around from different decades of the past. If only we all saved our favorite pair of ray-bans from the ‘50’s or Birkenstocks from the ‘70’s! We wanted to start by noting the things from the past which are coming back in style for the year.

This Spring puff sleeves are on the rise in dresses and tops. Typically, we are seeing this style choice paired with all cotton materials. We are loving this come-back and think it will pair perfectly with beachy bottoms and accessories for the warmer days ahead. Puff sleeves give a little bit of a feminine flare to any ensemble.

For workwear, chunky loafers (pictured) are making a comeback from the ‘90’s. This style compliments your favorite pair of pixie pants effortlessly. A lot of the options we are seeing in this shoe variation have a platform style bottom and a chunky chain across the top.

Girly accessories like pearl or jewel encrusted earrings and headbands are on the rise for Spring and give that perfect feminine touch to a solid top or dress for work or church. We are also seeing chenille patches (pictured) with cute sayings or shapes making up fun styles on sweatshirts and graphic tees.

Be on the lookout for airy midi dresses to be a strong trend for the upcoming year. This keeps your look nice and appropriate while also staying in style. We love this look in any variation of solid colors or bold prints.

Skinny jeans will be here to stay for a while to give more oversized tops a balanced look. However, straight leg jeans are definitely the most popular style in trousers and denim this year. We will all be rocking this style in a cropped variation this Spring to perfectly show off your shoes!

Prints have stayed the same for the past few years with leopard, tie dye, and florals always being on our radar. We were thrilled to see some new patterns on the rise like the full leopard (pictured), checkered, bold abstract styles, zebra, and …

The latest trend we are bringing back to everyone is Permanent Jewelry which we will now be offering in store. This is a clasp-less bracelet, necklace, or anklet in sterling or gold filled material which can have charms added. You never take it off but can easily cut it off if needed. Getting matching pieces with your friends and family members will be something fun and different to do!

That's a wrap on everything you need to know about the upcoming trends for the season! The stylists at Vivian O'Nay would love to help you find the perfect timeless pieces or try something new. Come by and see us for all of your fashion needs in sizes Small-3X.
