As soon as the mild spring weather appears, we hastily replace our heavy winter attire with the breathable clothing we've kept stored away for months. Even while the idea of lessening our load already seems appealing, we must admit, we're also looking forward to reviewing our wardrobes and adding the hottest spring fashion trends into our looks. 

There will be a lot to add for spring 2023.

Maxi skirts and tank tops, flowy blouses, and light-wash denim are some of the season's fashion essentials for spring, and there are only so many ways you can wear the same items year after year. Since there are so many incredible styles that have been shown on the runway, on red carpets, and highlighted on Instagram, putting together spring outfits that feel fresh can be a challenging process.

So let's crack down on the top styles we're expecting to see this Spring 2023.

All of the Pastels

Although somewhat cliché, pastels are a traditional (and appropriate) color scheme for spring, they frequently get a bad name for feeling a bit cheesy. But personal stylist Allie McKenna is here to say they're not.

“I am excited about color, especially lilac, pale yellow, and baby blue. I can’t wait to wear a baby blue midi skirt and a silky cami with some chunky colorful jewelry. I will always go for a statement shoe too, so a funky pair of 3-inch heels that compliment the outfit will be a must as well.”

Denim-On-Denim

McKenna’s second most anticipated fashion trend for spring 2023 is the return of the Canadian tuxedo, again.

“To be completely honest, I have always loved this trend and I am excited to see it back in the mainstream. I can’t wait to wear a denim maxi skirt, a corresponding denim corset top, and some chunky platforms out with my girlfriends this Spring.”

If you're going to make an investment in spring, Naina Singla, a fashion expert, and stylist advise InStyle to make it a statement maxi skirt. “They are a versatile wardrobe staple worth investing in and are perfect for every season,” additionally, Singla claims that lengthy maxi designs with skirts are appropriate given the increased Y2K influence in the fashion world.

“A maxi skirt is a piece that easily transitions from day to night and comes in a range of styles,” she explains. “Right now, we are seeing denim, satin slip skirts, and knitted skirts in maxi length.”

Platform Slip-Ons

   Although platform slip-ons have been popular for some time           (in part due to the almost-revival of Lizzie McGuire), personal         stylist and image consultant Andie Sobrato tells InStyle that             the nostalgic footwear will be especially well-liked for spring            2023, with a variety of bold, printed pairs to choose from.

     “I am excited to throw on a daisy, polka dot, or bright platform       slip-on with cropped jeans and button-up shirt,” Sobrato says.        "These relaxed and fun shoes will be the standout of any outfit          and bring the youthful energy that we all need.”

More Mesh

Another Y2K-esque fashion statement to be made this spring: Mesh.

“In particular, a mesh long-sleeve top or bodycon dress,” Sobrato tells InStyle. “These mesh dresses and tops can be in a solid, bright color or featuring a bold print and are a perfect way to add texture and dimension to your wardrobe; they show just enough skin to be sexy but hide enough to leave a mystery.”

Takeaway

Spring 2023 can be expected with lots of fun pairing multiple staple pieces together! June Gloom? Try layering some pieces! Warm day? Bring on a mini skirt with platform slip-ons! I can't wait to see what pieces everyone comes up with as we inch our way into spring!
