When it to trends people often think that they can't pull it off. Don't get me wrong but there are some trends that are hard to do. But this year I found some amazing trends that you will be willing to try. Some of these things you may already have it in your closet. If not your closet in might be in a family members wardrobe.
Even though these trends are influenced by Genz, and millennials (like me), anyone can wear it. Just find what is comfortable for you.

Bows
When I first heard about bows. I thought of those big bows some parents put on their children's hair. Or those really big bows on the backs of clothing. All I could think about was these very childish or Victorian fashion.
Once I started seeing some to the pictures of shoes and dresses. I started to see that it was less juvenile. It can be classy and pretty for adults to wear. It can also look romantic and sweet when looking at diamond and rhinestone bow jewelry.

Eclectic Grandpa
The coastal grandma trend was popular in 2023. For 2024 eclectic grandpa has become the new trend. At first, I thought it sounded silly.
Why would a young person want to dress like an 80-year-old grandpa? But I started to really look at the pieces. It is basically chunky knit sweaters, cardigans, and vests. Colorful and customized prints really make the trend stand out.
The shoes are sneakers or comfortable flats. Cozy style would have been a better name, but I guess that does not sound as catchy as eclectic Grandpa.
