Spring Has Only Just Begun But H&M Is Already Ahead With These 5 Key Trends

After weeks and months of counting down the days, finally (as of the 20th of March) spring is here! And as someone who will moan about winter in favour of the warmer months until the end of time, I’m so ready. So much so, my cashmere jumpers have already been bagged up into their vacuum bags, my summer dresses are hanging up ready and waiting for bare-leg weather and drinking an Aperol in a beer garden somewhere is the only plan I want to make. And while I’ve dusted off my seasonal favourites, ready to re-wear all the clothes I already own and love, I am also on the search for a few new pieces that’ll make my outfits feel very 2025. And there’s one site that’s standing out to me right now: H&M.

For the new season the brand has dropped a collection that’s ticked off quite literally every trend I’ve been lusting over on the runways—but with a high-street price tag, of course. Butter yellow went under the radar for winter but it’s back once again, along with not-as-you-know-it nautical—think effortless white dresses, striped polo shirts and suede boat shoes—and a sprinkling of animal print as the detail du jour. Add to this ’70s style aviator sunglasses, suede jackets and the denim style to know about and you get the five key trends H&M is backing for spring. Consider my wardrobe update sorted!
