1. Scrunchies!!!
Straight outta the '80s, hair scrunchies will make their triumphant return this year. They've already been spotted in Balenciaga's 2018 Resort collection, and hipster mecca Urban Outfitters already has a Scrunchies of the Week pack.
2. Cross-body mini bags
Maxi bags that take hours to rummage through are out; these teensy wallets and bags are in.
3. Kappa sportswear
Adidas and Puma got all of the streetwear spotlight in 2016 and 2017, and this year, it's the Italian sportswear brand Kappa's turn.
4. Sequins and general sparkle
Blame the KiraKira app that lets you transpose sparkles on anything, but also our collective desire to feel a little less dead inside this year.
5. That white athletic sock ~lewk~
So normcore that it's just the norm again.
6. Cropped wide-legged trousers
Capitalize on the '70s vibes and no-longer-awkward length with a pair of high heeled boots or tennis shoes of choice.
7. Lots and lots of lavender
Millennial pink dominated 2017, but with Pantone decreeing this year's color to be Ultra Violet, we'll see a lot of its softer side, in lavender, in hair and apparel alike.
8. Denim mania, continued
If you thought jeans got a little excessive last year, buckle up, sis, because the denim mania has only begun.
9. Checked pants
We're forecasting a lot of the Prince of Wales print, houndstooth, and even gingham on many a pant this year.
10. Plaid pants, too
Plaid pants get their own section, based on the sheer profusion of tartan-inspired plaid we're already seeing everywhere.
11. Some very fearsome florals
Think big, beautiful flower prints straight from the '70s. Definitely groundbreaking imo.
12. The power blazer
We're cycling out of pantsuits and power suits and into defining-your-boss-lady vibe with a single, spectacular blazer.
13. Vertical striped shirts
Pair it with a white undershirt for maximum '90s feels.
14. Camo prints
Camouflage pieces will return this year, so hit up your military surplus store ASAP for the best ones.
15. 16. And finally, fanny packs, if you can believe it
The cool kids will be wearing them sideways, like so.
