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.

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?

I ran into @target to pick up the NEW CeraVe Super Boost Serum, along with the Vitamin C Brightening Cleanser, Vitamin C Brightening Lotion and Skin Renewing Night Cream, and I’m loving how simple this routine is.

As we get older, our skin can need a little extra hydration and attention to dullness and uneven-looking skin tone. For me, the goal isn’t to look younger—I just want healthy, hydrated and radiant skin because it makes me feel most confident and @CeraVe has me covered.

If you’re looking for a simple skincare routine that’s easy to maintain on a daily basis this is one to check out on your next Target run or online.

Have you tried any of these skin brightening products from CeraVe yet?

#ad Today’s monochromatic makeup look is inspired #ad Today’s monochromatic makeup look is inspired by the colors of Fall. I used all @lorealparis makeup to create this quick and easy look that will have you out the door in minutes.

The foundation and blush are the True Match Hyaluron Balm Foundation and Embellisher that multitask by giving my skin hydration and coverage with a lightweight feel.

I’m in love with the burgundy eyeshadow stick and mascara because they make my eye color pop and will be gorgeous with all of my Fall-colored wardrobe pieces.
