As we enter the new year, I—like a lot of people—am in the process of cleaning out my closet. I'm taking inventory of what I have and what I actually wear and removing the items I don't. I typically do this twice a year to declutter and ensure I'm only holding on to pieces I love, giving me a clean slate to build out my wardrobe for the season ahead. Going through my closet also brings me back to my personal style, which allows me to examine upcoming trends through that lens before making any purchases.
Since I'm feeling grounded in my personal style at the moment, I looked through the spring/summer 2025 runway shows to see which trends truly speak to me—Khaite's powder pink, Gucci's olive green, Saint Laurent's soft power suiting, and the romantic touches from Chloé have my full attention. With that in mind, I started browsing my favorite retailers and saving items I'm considering to build out my wardrobe for the year ahead. From powder-pink outerwear to relaxed tailoring and chic scarf details, the pieces I'm eyeing are a mix of new trends and timeless staples to round out my wardrobe. Below, I'm sharing the best shopping picks from Revolve, Zara, and Mango for 2025 (in my humble opinion).
The perfect shade of brown.
You must add the matching skirt.
This coat is also a dream.
Scarf details will continue to trend, and I think they add a sophisticated touch.
This has a built-in scarf and it's in wine red.
I can't resist this collar.
A nod to the soft power trend.
Satin slingbacks are always a good idea.
Romantic details were all over the spring runways, and this dress is perfection.
Another very good blazer.
Utterly chic.
Pantone named this the color of 2025.
Optical frames were all over the Saint Laurent runway.
I love the relaxed tailoring.
Leopard is having a resurgence, and I personally love it in outerwear form.
How chic is this draping?
East-West bags are going to continue to trend, and this Freja iteration is so chic.
I'm still not over funnel-neck outerwear.
Mocha Mousse is the color of the year, after all.
For just a touch of animal print.
Prepare to see lace slip dresses everywhere.
More mocha mousse, please.
The high-neck silhouette is just so polished.
These feel so modern.
So romantic.
I've heard nothing but rave reviews about these pants, and I think this is the year I finally jumped on the bandwagon.
A suede trench is a timeless choice.
I love the color-blocking on this one.
I'm very into polished outerwear at the moment.
The relaxed tailoring feels fresh.
