My summer style has always leaned casual and simple – but this year, I’m shaking things up with statement trends. The fashion world has been all about embracing vibrant colors, striking prints, and exaggerated silhouettes that undoubtedly turn heads. I have to admit that they’re incredibly hard to resist. Whether you’re planning a tropical vacation or heading out for a late-night adventure, these statement trends will take your style to the next level. When it comes to finding the best pieces that embody these trends, Saks Fifth Avenue is the place to shop. With its curated selection of high-end brands and fashion-forward designs, Saks offers a wide range of head-turning pieces that are sure to captivate. If you’re ready to unleash your hottest summer yet, keep scrolling for my seasonal picks.

Saturated Hues

Summer 2023 is all about bold and vibrant colors that draw eyes wherever you go. What I love most about wearing color is how they pop against any complexion and really steal the spotlight. If you’re heading to Miami or Vegas for a quick getaway, then you’ll want to shop my picks below. Saks has you covered with fiery pinks, sunny yellows and vivid greens.

Statement Prints

Exciting patterns are also set to dominate the fashion scene. So, get ready to step out of your comfort zone with mesmerizing geometric patterns and playful floral motifs. The possibilities are endless. These fun shorts offer a fun but still elegant way to take on the trend.

Voluminous Silhouettes

If you want to make a grand entrance, then voluminous dresses are essential. These dresses create a ton of drama with their billowing silhouettes and exaggerated proportions. Whether you’re attending a summer wedding, a garden party, or simply want to elevate your everyday look, voluminous dresses instantly add a touch of elegance and flair to your wardrobe.

Sculptural Sandals

Sandals are getting a major upgrade this summer. Gone are the days of minimal, strappy stilettos and in its place are sculptural, avant-garde shoes. Think unique architectural shapes, unexpected angles, and intricate details. They’re the perfect way to make a fashion-forward statement if you’re just wearing basics.

Embellished Accents

It might be obvious by now that the season’s statement trends are all about injecting a touch of glamour. Rhinestones, specifically, are adorning everything from dresses to denim. These sparkling accents bring a sense of opulence and luxury to any look whether delicately scattered on a flowy dress or intricately embellishing the pockets of your favorite denim jeans.
