Trends come and go (and come back again), but some things will truly stand the test of time. Why is it that I look at my outfits from 2010 and cringe, but I see 60-year-old photos of Jackie Kennedy's style and want to dress just like her? Because she stuck to the classics. Experimenting with trends is definitely fun, but certain pieces have much more staying power.
For all of you classic dressers out there, I've rounded up a handful of my favorite trends that I believe will still look chic in 10 years (and beyond). For instance, monochrome dressing is such an easy way to look put-together without really trying. Just grab a few pieces in the same color, and you're good to go. Scroll down to shop the other classic summer clothing trends I love, along with outfit ideas courtesy of IG's coolest ladies.
1. Monochrome
Don't overlook H&M's selection of affordably-priced swimwear.

Chinos, but make them fashion.
Nothing says summer like an off-the-shoulder blouse.
4. Oversize T-Shirts
You simply can't beat the price on the H&M tee, so you might as well stock up.
