Summer Trends According to Pinterest

Summer is finally here! For many people, this often means stocking up on the season’s latest offerings as we finally get a glimpse of the summer’s most popular styles. Of course, one of the first places many of us check is Pinterest. Here are some forecasts for summer style according to the website’s stats.

1. Batik Print: The platform has seen a huge increase in pins of pieces with batik print. The print, made with an ancient form of wax-resist dyeing, gives off vacation vibes. The blue and white coloring of this Natalie Martin Nico Maxi Dress ($258) practically screams summer.

1. Ribbed Crop Tops: Of course this is the perfect time to break out the crop tops. However, these popular ones of the ribbed, peasant variety give off a strong bohemian vibe. Paired with a flowing skirt or wide-legged culottes, this could be a part of an outfit worthy of any music festival.

1. Tropical Prints: Obviously you can’t do summer without brightly colored prints. It only takes one Lily Pulitzer-esque blouse or dress to transport you to sunny, island vacation. Even if you’re stuck at home on a rainy Sunday.

1. Linens: Linen has always been the official go-to fabric of the summer. It’s one the only things that can help keep you cool in humid 90+ degree heat. Therefore, it would be practical to stack up on this summer staple, whether its in the form of some comfy pants or a breezy dress.

1. Millenial Orange: You’ve probably already heard of Millenial Pink. But, even if you’ve already splashed your walls, nails, and wardrobe with the color, you could probably make room for its cousin; millennial orange. It supposedly made a 190 percent jump on Pinterest, and this crop top from ASOS ($16) would make a worthy addition to the closet of even the biggest pink fanatic.

1. Kimonos: Pinterest has seen a huge spike in kimono pins and frankly, it’s not hard to see why. Kimonos make very versatile pieces, whether you’re using them as cover-ups at the pool or pairing them with high-waisted shorts and a simple white blouse.

1. Tiny Sunglasses: The 90s to early 2000s trend is suddenly back as celebrities such as Kendall Jenner and Bella Hadid have been spotted wearing them. This cat-eye option from ASOS is super cute and adds a retro touch to any outfit.

1. Wide-legged Pants: The silhouettes this summer are flowing and billowy. Wide-legged pants are a good option, especially if they come in linen.
