White Hot Eyelet

I still see snow out my window. It’s almost gone but not quite yet. However, everything I see in retail screams summer. And I get it. Those of you with vacation plans are diving head first into this inventory. I can’t blame you. I love what I see so far and I’m looking forward to filling my closet with these spring to summer trends.

One of the trends that seems popular right now and will carry into summer is eyelet. I’m seeing it pop up everywhere. Eyelet beckons summer. It’s a lightweight airy fabric that keeps you cool in the hot summer months. Right now we are seeing it in tops and dresses in a variety of styles, including the latest one shoulder and off the shoulder trends. Eyelet is a versatile fabric and makes an appearance every summer in some form but not always this early in the season. This may indicate that there is an increased interest in this fabric this season and we may be seeing more eyelet than usual.

This is an easy trend to participate in due to the fact that it is available in a wide variety of styles and colors to make it flattering on multiple body types. Find the style and color that works for you. If you’re eager to incorporate this into your wardrobe sooner than later try to find an eyelet top. Pair this with a cropped jacket or a cardigan and a pair of jeans to wear in colder temps until the weather starts to catch up with your closet! Eyelet generally looks great with jeans or a jean jacket. The simplicity of eyelet also calls for keeping the rest of your outfit simple and have the focus on the eyelet detail.
