I'm a Sucker for Something Shiny and New—These 35 Pretty Items Caught My Eye
I love everything about the "pretty things" trend. The trend can be described as all things romantic and dainty. Think ballet dancer with shades of baby pink and ballet flats or modern-day Park Avenue princess with luxe fabrics like satin and lace, accents of pearls, and metallic details. Pretty things can be everything from sparkly statement moments to lingerie as outerwear to cottagecore and Disney princess–like dresses and skirts. This fall, we will definitely see this pretty trend take over. We have all seen the rise of princesscore and Barbiecore, and this newest trend is a fashion-person mix of them both if you ask me. As a lover of pretty things myself, I have been all over this trend and have a few looks in my closet that definitely check the "pretty things" box.
I've rounded up 35 pretty new items that I've been dreaming about, so keep scrolling to see what has caught my eye.
I look forward to summer every year for so many reasons but one of the one's towards the top, is getting to wear dresses like this.
I love a good sweater and bolero set. The neckline on this one makes it particularly sweet.
I just got my hands on my first Dora Larsen set and I'm officially obsessed.
There's something so dainty about these ballet flats. They look just like real ballet shoes.
This dress screams spring time to me.
This dress is a little on the extra side but I'm a fan/
Gen Z can't get enough of this corset top, and it's obvious why.
I need this bralette in every color.
I need to get this dress in my spring wardrobe ASAP.
