What’s Trending Now: Beauty & Fashion with a Luxe Touch

June 18, 2025

If you’re ready to embrace the summer season with confidence, elegance, and a little glam, then this one’s for you. The latest beauty and fashion trends are all about polished simplicity, radiant skin, and statement pieces that speak volumes. Here’s what’s hot right now—and how to glow from head to toe with elevated style.

A woman in a navy strapless dress stands indoors on a rug, holding a small red handbag. She has long wavy hair and is smiling. The room features neutral decor, a plant, and a sliding barn door in the background.

Beauty Trends: Polished, Radiant, and Age-Defiant

1. Luminous Skin is the New Foundation

Heavy makeup is out, and radiant, healthy skin is in. DRMTLGY Universal Tinted Moisturizer is a multitasking hero that offers sun protection, hydration, and a sheer, dewy glow. It works beautifully under makeup or on its own. It’s the perfect “skincare meets glam” product.

2. Simple, Yet Effective Skincare

If you want big results but want to use little effort to get there, then Trifecta is the answer. It’s just 3 multitasking skincare products with powerful, yet gentle skincare actives. Just use the 3 products morning and night and get ready for glowing skin.

3. Grown-Up Glam Makeup

The trend is effortless glam—glowing skin, defined lashes, and a bold lip.

  • Westman Atelier Baby Cheeks Blush Stick – A creamy formula that melts into skin for the perfect flush.
  • Chanel Les Beiges Healthy Glow Bronzing Cream – Silky, blendable bronzer that gives a sun-kissed glow without shimmer overload.

👠 Fashion Trends: Understated Luxe

1. Tailored with a Twist

Sharp tailoring with a feminine edge is in. Think belted blazers, high-waisted trousers, and elevated separates that feel both powerful and graceful.

2. Soft Metallics & Luxe Fabrics

Satin, silk, and subtle shimmer are trending in both casual and evening wear. A champagne silk blouse or metallic midi skirt can elevate any outfit effortlessly.

3. Elegant Statement Pieces

Accessories are making bold, refined statements this season:

  • Oversized Sunglasses
  • Structured top-handle bags in rich neutrals like ivory, oxblood, or deep navy

4. Modern Boho with Edge

The ’70s-inspired look gets a fresh update—silk maxi dresses and gold accessories create a vibe that’s free-spirited but always polished.

These trends are all about celebrating where you are and showing up with confidence and style.

  • Embrace your personal aesthetic
  • Invest in pieces that feel good and look amazing
  • Let your natural glow do the talking because luxury isn’t just what you wear—it’s how you feel.

Which of these beauty and fashion trends speaks the most to you?

Personalized and sentimental jewelry is my favorit Personalized and sentimental jewelry is my favorite because of the meaning behind it. This necklace from @haverhill checks all the boxes and then some! It’s meant to be passed down between generations.

It’s all handcrafted with solid 14K gold and gemstones. Everything is ethically sourced and sustainably made right here in the USA.

 I chose a necklace with 2 initials with 2 gemstones (mine and my husband’s initials). I love that I can wear it without worrying about it tarnishing because of the high quality materials that it’s made with. I almost never take it off.

Be sure to visit their website (haverhill.com) if you’re looking for meaningful jewelry items for yourself or someone you love.

This one’s from Lysse NY and it’s soft, comfortable and machine washable. I love that they put a tummy tucking panel in the waist area for a slimming effect.

Available in regular and curvy sizes.
