Who says fashion trends only exist on runways?
Right here in Pennsylvania, clothing stores and fashion boutiques are showcasing some of the best fashion trends to try out this Spring. Here are some of the top fashion trends making their way off the runway and into some of your favorite local stores.
A Fab Trench Coat
Though trench coats have been around for a while, they’re certainly taking center stage this Spring. This is mainly due to their dramatic lapels, interesting slits, drop-down waist overlays, and bold sleeves.
Try this trench coat out for size from Nicole Taylor Boutique, located in Lancaster, PA. This coat gives a fresh, trendy twist to the modern look. Make a statement with this coat’s burnt orange color by pairing it up with some of your favorite solid colors.
A Bold Shoulder Look
What started off as an 80s trend, has found its way back into our wardrobe this Spring. The big shoulder look is proving to be a fashion staple this season with its sophisticated and romantic edge. If not on a mutton sleeve, you’ll find it on a glorious cape or a fashionable blazer.
Jump on this look with the help of Radiantly U Boutique, located in Harrisburg, PA. The bold shoulders on this red top is giving us life and pairs well with dark skinny jeans and black booties.
Nothing But Net
Apart from being aesthetically pleasing, the crotchet/netting trend adds a bit of interest and detail to any look. It pairs well over a bold color piece and can be worn as an additional piece to any dull outfit--giving it that extra bit of spice!
Get your crotchet on with this piece from The Mustard Seed Boutique in Lititz, PA. The awesome part about this knit shawl is that you can put it on and take it off as you please. You can also color coordinate with other colors in your closet to help pull this look together.

An Oversized Button-Down Shirt
No, this shirt is not your typical husband’s, boyfriend’s, brother’s or dad’s shirt -- it’s so much more than that! This oversized shirt allows for billowing silhouettes, proportions that are extra-long, extra wide, and some may even pass this shirt as a dress or a long shirt.
Check this piece out from Lush Bazaar, located in Lancaster, PA. The Pearl Ruffle Sleeve Dress can be stylized as a dress or as a top over a pair of skinny blue jeans and bold color booties.
The Hole “-ly” Look
This season, it’s all about showing off skin in unexpected ways. With the assistance of turtlenecks, bodysuits, jumpsuits, cut-out dresses, cut-out tops and trousers, there’s a lot of hole “–iness” to go around.
Get into the action with this Holy Moly sweater from Festoon, located in Lancaster, PA. One thing to note about this sweater is that if you don’t feel comfortable showing off your skin, you can always wear a cotton camisole underneath the sweater.
Multi-Colored Coats
Since we were stuck indoors for most of 2020, it’s time to go all out this season with a brightly-hued statement coat! Choose from a variety of colors with bold stripes, fun patchworks, interesting checks, and beautifully folk-inspired coats. This trend is very easy to style with simple pieces and looks amazing on every body type.
Try this multi-colored coat from Stash Vintage, located in Harrisburg, PA. This coat is vibrant, fun, and will definitely add a splash of color to your wardrobe this Spring.
Pastel Perfection
The shades of pastel are truly stepping up their game this season. This time around, it’s so much fun to choose from pastel colors like soothing buttercup yellows, lovely lavenders, peony pinks, light peaches, and subtle bluebells.
It’s no better time than now to try out this buttercup yellow button up top from Elizabeth & West Fashion. The top is a perfect shade of yellow without going overboard on the color and it features a billowy V-neck design with intricate buttons going down the top.
Wide-Leg Pants
Whether you prefer wide-leg pants or big jeans, get the best of both worlds with this season’s coolest and comfortable trend. Pair this look with your preferred oversized shirts, a cool vest or a nice bralette and jacket, and your good to go!
Try this extra wide-leg denim jean from Urban Snob, located in Harrisburg, PA. This jean gives off retro vibes from the 70s with an updated feel.
