I've always considered myself a fairly perceptive person (hello, fellow introverts), and it has certainly come in handy as a fashion editor. My attention to detail has helped me pick up on trends while speedily scrolling through retailers or Instagram. "I know I've seen this before" frequently pops into my head, and I begin to put together multiple examples of a trend for a story like this one.
Last month, I wrote about the three color trends dominating at H&M, Madewell, and Mango, and now, I've turned my sights on the well-dressed women of Instagram. What colors are they backing right now? For starters, Aimee Song is such a big fan of pale yellow that she included several different pieces in her latest Song of Style launch. Scroll down to shop the prettiest summer colors I keep seeing all over Instagram and shop pieces for yourself.

This sleek and simple A-line frock is calling your name.

3. Orange and Pink
This vibrant top deserves to be paired with a tropical cocktail and some Beach Boys playing in the background.
It's time to up your WFH game.
Admit it: Your gray sweats could use a break.
The tie-dye trend shows no signs of slowing down.
