Shopping trends for spring: Fashion expert reveals what ends up in her shopping cart

I don't know about you, but by March at the latest, my fingers are itching. I would love to immediately sort out my thick winter sweaters from the closet, vacuum seal them and store them at the top of the closet, while I pull out the summer boxes with tingling excitement. It's all a bit premature - but the anticipation of spring, when the flowers start to sprout again, the bright rays of sunshine tickle us awake and we can try out more fashion, is too great. Who else feels the same? What are you most looking forward to? As a fashion editor, I have scanned the trends of the fashion weeks as well as the fashion accounts on Insta and TikTok and I can tell you: you should take a closer look at these five trends.

New season, new trends: a system that fashion lovers can rely on. Two large annual collections have now become numerous capsule collections and limited editions - keeping track of everything is not that easy. And you don't have to, because according to our trend forecast, there are five trends in particular that you should focus on. These include: cow prints, silver and knitwear.

Cow prints appeared on the fashion scene as early as 2024, but the new fashion trend has not yet really established itself. And that is mainly because the animal print requires a bit of courage. Head to toe as a cow? For many, too much of a good thing. As with many hypes, it's all about the right dose. What can look disguised as trousers is an interesting eye-catcher as a shoe or bag. Labels like Adidas and Zara have discovered the trend for themselves and launched stylish retro sneakers with the spotted pattern. Even more stylish, in my opinion, is the cow-print pouch bag from Weekday . There is space for a laptop, headphones and a water bottle - AND at the same time you take your office look to a whole new level.

As stylish as Chloé

Admittedly, what is shown on the runways is rarely possible in private life. However, things are very different with Chemena Kamali's new collection for the fashion label Chloé. With her homage to the boho blouse, she combines romance with history. With her flounces, she is setting new standards for upcoming spring collections, which is already apparent in the spring styles at H&M. Do you want to look as beautiful as the Chloé models? Then you should go for the beige chiffon dress from the Swedish brand. Add cowboy boots and a hat, and everyone will think your ensemble is a designer look.

Perspective with Charm

The temperatures are currently still in the single digits, but the sun still finds its way through the grey sea of ​​clouds and is more intense than expected. In Hamburg, this is the moment when everyone gets their sunglasses out. But instead of the Céline glasses that we've finally had enough of, the nerd glasses with coloured lenses are now being brought out. You've probably already come across the Seba model by Meller on social media. But if that's too expensive for you at 49 euros, you'll find what you're looking for at H&M .

Sophie Hood: The Trend from the Internet

Another trend that is not finding its way into our wardrobes from the catwalks, but from TikTok, Instagram and the like, is the Sophie Scarf. The knitted triangular scarf is not only an absolute must in the knitting world, all models are sold out in online shops like Asos. The further development of the Sophie scarf is the hooded version, which is becoming increasingly popular. Be quick and grab it at bonprix before this model of the hooded scarf is also sold out.

Silver is the new gold

Silence is not golden, but silver is replacing the warm precious metal in spring. Whether as earrings, as a layered necklace or pants: true fashionistas will be wearing silver in all variations in 2025. Cold color types benefit the most here, because silver can be combined excellently with pastel sugar colors such as pink, gold or mint. Simply combine silver pants with a pink mohair sweater and silver ballerina shoes and your look could end up as inspiration on Pinterest. Feel free to experiment with silver, but avoid monochrome looks, which give more NASA than haute couture vibes.
