Favorite Styles of 2022

on
As 2023 kicks off, we find ourselves reminiscing on the styles that got us through 2022. A lot of old favorites are making a comeback (since style is often cyclical), but there are some new faces in the field too. We have wide-leg bottoms, maxi skirts, leather, loafers, statement sleeves, vests, all sorts of accessories, and the trendiest prints, textures, and tones. 
Here's a top-to-bottom look back at what we loved at Called to Surf this past year. 

Tops That Transcend Trends

In 2022, the spotlight centered on statement-makers like prints, sleeves, and trending textures and tones. After all, when you shop beyond the basics, there's always room for something new. No matter your budget or body type, we're confident you'll find something to love from our curated collection that transcends the trends.

Sweaters and Shackets

For versatility, look no further than these top-selling styles. Get outerwear warmth without the bulk or hassle of extra layers with these trending hybrid pieces. Sweaters and shackets are unexpectedly practical and perfect for everyday wear—it's no wonder they were such hot-ticket items last year.

Dresses to Dance In

Dresses like these will always stay in style, but we were particularly partial to long lengths and statement sleeves in 2022. Refresh your wardrobe for the new year with easy, breezy linen dresses or things that pack more of a print. There's always something for the occasion at Called to Surf.

Swap Out the Skinny Jeans

Now, some of us won't ever be totally over the staple skinny jean, no matter how millennial that may seem, but there's beauty in shaking things up every once in a while. We've branched out of our comfort zone and embraced the wide-leg trend and added some non-denim cuts and colors to our brigade of bottoms. If TikTok says this was a top 2022 trend, we'll follow suit.

Add a Few Inches

Chunky boots, platform shoes, ballet flats, and slides filled everyone's shoe closets in 2022, next to limited edition sneakers and the Birkenstock Boston clog. If you managed to make it through the year without needing a new pair of kicks, here are a few styles for your consideration once your go-tos get too worn down.

Accessories That Mesmerize

Simple chains stay timeless, and every girl should have one, but that's not all 2022 had to offer in the accessories department. The end of the year (and some supply-and-demand issues) brought about the beginning of the end for the belt bag and the new crown jewel: the crossbody. In addition to the latest carry-all, we saw that claw clips, permanent jewelry, ring stacks, and watch bands are the top-selling accessories of the year.
