7 Uncomplicated Outfit Trends the Fashion Crowd Is Embracing

I like to go through my Saved folder on Instagram every few weeks to bring you a curation of outfit ideas that recently caught my attention. Well today, I'm here to showcase seven strong outfit trends the fashion crowd seems to be embracing. And yep, these looks would fall into that "chic and easy" category.
The outfits in question are more or less "uncomplicated" in my eyes. Basically, said outfits are certainly fashion-forward and elevated, but they don’t require more than just a few items to put together. I'm referring to ensembles like the ever-so-trendy vibe of teaming a buttoned gilet with a pair of high-waisted jeans or trousers. You know, like this look Kendall Jenner wore. There's also a darling look featuring a stylish dress that I'm very much into.
Anyway, if you keep scrolling, you'll get to the good stuff. I also shopped out inspired items if you want to test out any of the outfits coming your way.
This outfit is quite trend-forward right now with the gilet and relaxed jeans. A pair of simple sandals complete the vibe.
You just can't go wrong with an oversize button-down shirt this season. Consider a vibrant pick with contrasting bike shorts for a simple ensemble.
A trendy shoulder-pad tee tucked into a midi or maxi skirt is effortless for the season.
Here's another ensemble featuring an oversize shirt. This time, it's the pairing of a basic tank and neutral shorts that's noteworthy.
If you want a layered look for summer, toss on a lightweight blazer over a tube top with your favorite pair of jeans or trousers.
This outfit formula is no-fail. A ribbed tank teamed with high-waisted jeans just works.
Love a throw-on dress? Consider a shirtdress with your favorite flat sandals for a one-and-done situation.
