Real Simple / Tyler Roeland

In New York, at the first hint of warmer weather, everyone eagerly exchanges their winter coats and boots for spring clothing (even though the cold temps inevitably return before spring really arrives). And though it’s still pretty chilly, spring styles have started to pop up all over the city. Whether the temperatures are already rising where you live or you’re just dreaming of sunnier days, below are some of the newest fashion trends to shop for this season.

Bold sneakers, decked-out ballet flats, and oversized baggy jeans are popping up all around New York, with people styling them both up and down for any and all occasions. Incorporate the latest fashion trends and browse some of my favorite picks from Adidas, New Balance, Steve Madden, Madewell, and more below.

    Abercrombie & Fitch

    $72

    Buy on abercrombie.com

    Wide-leg jeans seem to be here to stay, and they keep getting baggier and baggier. And not only are looser styles trendy, but they’re also comfy thanks to the roomy fit. In fact, one shopper said that these jeans from Abercrombie “are just as comfortable as sweatpants but look a lot more put together.” The high-rise style comes in eight washes, including cream and black, plus a white and indigo pinstriped option.

    Not-Your-Average Flats

    Nordstrom

    $90

    Buy on Nordstrom

    Ballet flats have been big for a while now, but the latest versions are anything but basic. New Yorkers are opting for updated Mary Janes and styles that feature studded and mesh details for a bolder twist on the simple silhouette. Reviewers say that they get so many compliments on this “eye-catching” pair from Steve Madden. The flats are embellished with rhinestones, and they have a buckled strap to keep your foot secure while walking.

    Slingbacks

    Nordstrom Rack

    $60

    Buy on nordstromrack.com

    The slingback is another classic shoe that’s experienced a resurgence recently, and now people are wearing the style more casually with socks or jeans. Grab this patent pair in black or beige to elevate any look. The shoes have a pointed toe to help elongate your legs and a 1.75-inch kitten heel made for comfortable walking. The ankle strap even has a ribbon to tie into the bow trend, too.
