This year is all about embracing the inner-you with bold fashion and unique takes on staple styles. So, while we may not be fortune tellers, here are our editors’ most anticipated fashion trends of 2024 that you should definitely keep an eye on.

Girlcore
2023 was the year of girlhood thanks to the revival of Barbie, pink, and all things girly. We expect this trend to continue on the runway and in your closet this year. We’re loving pieces that are overly-feminine featuring elements like bows, roses, and ruffles.

Preppy
Just when you thought it was time to put away the blazers and vests, enter 2024. Think, “Would I see this outfit in Gossip Girl or Saltburn or perhaps my favorite dark academic book?” If the answer is “yes,” you’re in.

Layering, but make it cool
Styling your look with layers upon layers is nothing new, of course. But have you added a little sheer something something into the mix? Breathable layers may just be the best 2024 fashion trend for us Texans!

XL Bags
You heard it here first, ludicrously capacious bags are in. (Despite what Tom from Succession thinks). 2024 is the year of getting stuff done, and we wouldn’t be able to without a giant bag with room for every essential and knick knack.

Realistic Heels
Oh what a wonder a pair of heels can make to elevate your everyday look! But one thing we’re bringing into the new year is some realistic expectations, which means it’s time to bring back baby heels. Get ready to own every room you walk into while maintaining comfort, you can thank us later.

Green
Cherry red was one of the top colors of last year, so if you’re trying to predict this years pick, look at the other side of the color wheel! Big win for Baylor and UNT fans.
