13 Holiday Trends I'm 100% Behind—and How I'm Wearing Them
As a fashion editor forBest Knockoff Luxury Clothing , my eye is constantly focused on the new trends unfolding everywhere from runway shows to the street style scene to the new products hitting retailers. When it comes to the outfits I’m wearing, I’m regularly interpreting the trends for myself and working them into my personal style. Yep, you’ll often see me posting outfits on my Instagram account, @kristenmarienichols, with photos of the items I’m wearing—and that was certainly the case for a recent trip overseas.
To me, one of the best parts about a trip is experimenting with some of Wholesale Replica Bag trends. I spend months writing about the big summer trends and seeing them unfold in the wardrobes of fashion insiders, so a trip is a perfect excuse to pack a suitcase full of the pieces I’ve been eyeing all season—and putting the trends to the test myself. For a recent trip to Italy, I documented all of the current trends I tried out. Ahead, see 13 trends I'm wearing on holiday, and shop the edit for yourself.
The Trend: Plunge Swimsuits
While there are plenty of new swimsuit trends at the moment, one I've been seeing among designers across the board is the plunge-front silhouette. I've owned these high-waisted bottoms from Matteau for a few seasons but just added their Plunge top to my closet to try out the trend for myself.

Shop the matching High Waist Bikini Briefs (£105).
Here, another take on the plunge swimsuit. With a V-front silhouette and nipped-in waist, this piece from Monday Swimwear is a unique spin on the one-piece. I'm such a big fan of this style that I also ordered it in blush.
Shop the outfit:
The Trend: Tie-Front Tops
I've been seeing tie-front tops everywhere and knew I had to test them out for myself—like this one from Cult Gaia that has lace-up details along the front and puffy sleeves, which I paired with cream shorts and raffia shoes. The partially open front might not be for everyone, but to me is a new style I'm embracing.
Shop the outfit:
Here, another tie-front top I discovered at Reformation. Unlike the billowy Cult Gaia version, this one is slightly cropped so I balanced it out with high-waist pants.
Shop the outfit:
The Trend: Pistachio
To be honest, I was hesitant to try out the pistachio trend that's set to take over for autumn. As someone who is generally more prone to wearing neutrals, I wasn't sure if I could pull it off. After wearing this slip dress, though, I realised it is easier to wear than I originally imagined, so now I'm officially behind the trend.
Shop the outfit:
The Trend: Orange
This one-piece from Dos Gardenias taps into one of the other big colour trends of the season: orange.
Shop the outfit:
The Trend: Maxi Dresses
Thanks to designers like Paco Rabanne and Jacquemus, maxi silhouettes are back on the map. Admittedly, I've often found the length tricky to pull off, but this Matteau dress proved to be an easy way to add it back into my wardrobe.
Shop the outfit:
The Trend: Retro Sneakers
While chunky sneakers have been the go-to style among fashion insiders, retro sneakers with sleeker lines are set to take over this coming season. I'm definitely here for the classic sneaker revival.
Shop the outfit:
The Trend: Sheer Tops
Sheer tops are one of the big trends of the moment, but I've been hesitant to add one into my wardrobe. To be honest, I've tried wearing one before but struggled with what to wear underneath. My solution? Layering a swimsuit top underneath to wear as part of the outfit. If you don't already know about the brand Piece of White, where this top is from, it's one you should definitely have on your radar. The label specialises in white tops, so it has an array of cool styles, including this one.
Shop the outfit:
The Trend: Nouveau Shirtdresses
Unlike most shirtdresses, this one from Jacquemus is reinterpreted with draping at the waist and an opening top. It might have put the trend on the map, but we're now seeing it from other designers as well.
Shop the outfit:
The Trend: Midi-Length Dresses
Midi lengths have emerged as a key shape for summer and will continue to be popular moving into autumn. I embraced the trend with this floral take on the silhouette from Réalisation that's finished with a corset-style top and rose print.
Shop the outfit:
The Trend: Bold Gold Jewellery
Hoop earrings were everywhere last year, but now, bold gold earrings are the new accessory to own. I tested out the trend with these sculptural earrings from Greek jewellery brand Mayol.
Shop the outfit:
The Trend: Retro Swimsuits
While retro swimsuits are more of a classic at this point, they are certainly one of this year's biggest trends. This style is finished with a bra-like top and high-waisted bottoms. There's certainly a reason this classic style is back.
Shop the outfit:
The Trend: Nightgowns
Since late last year, nightgowns for the day have taken off as a trend among the fashion set. Fueled by brands like Sleeper, the trend is only gaining steam. I tried it out for myself with this dress from With Jéan, which proved to be wearable for outside the house when paired with sandals.
Shop the outfit:
The Trend: Scrunchies
Sure, scrunchies have been around since the trend really hit last year, but now they are cooler than ever. I used to reserve the hair accessory for my bathroom at home, but with elegant versions on the market they deserve to be an intentional part of the outfit.
