As the new year begins you may wonder which fashion trends to carry over into 2017.

We are sticking with the bell sleeve trend, which we love for all seasons, winter through summer. The bold silhouette makes a style statement that is easy to pull off and works for any body type making it a universal favorite. This trend can be found adorning cozy sweaters as well as light boho blouses so it will be frequented amongst designers as they transition their collections from season to season. If you haven’t tried out this look yet now is the time to get on board! Invest in a few pieces now and they will carry you into the spring with style.
Off the shoulder and cold shoulder styles are also going to stick around for the new year. A cold shoulder blouse like this Amanda Uprichard one in a pretty blush pink can take you from a dressy night out on the town to a summer soiree with the right accessories. Wear it with skinny jeans and heels now, and with a cute circle skirt and sandals later since this trend will continue to flourish in the new year. Cut outs on the shoulder show a hint of skin but are modest enough to appeal to all ages, and because of that we predict that this trend will be around for a while longer!
Choker necklaces made a big comeback in the past year, and looking forward we are going to see more layering with chokers. Mixing small dainty chokers with a thicker statement piece is a trend that has been catching on and will definitely be big in the coming year. The look is both edgy and refined and elongates the neck especially when paired with an off the shoulder top. Layering different textures is the best approach to take for a coordinated look, such as skinny leather cords with a wider velvet band, or thin golden chains with a thicker rhinestone piece. So keep your chokers around and prepare yourself now with an arsenal of strands that can be mixed and matched for the layered look you desire as we step into 2017.
