Here at Checkmate, we've got our eye on a few specific trends month. If bright blues, ethereal ruffles, and rich browns are your vibe, you've come to the right place.

Trend #1: Cerulean Blue
It's not just blue, it’s not turquoise, it’s not lapis, it’s actually cerulean.
We know, we know. Hear us out: this isn't your Cerulean from the early 2000's, it's cool again. Leading the Cerulean trend is Free People, Princess Polly, and Coach.

Trend #2: Micro-shorts
We're talkin' mini, mini.
Last summer was all about the Adam Sandler jort; so naturally, this year we're going teeny tiny. Shop the smallest of shorts from Free People, YOOX, & Revolve.

Trend #5: Brown
Your transitional color of the season is here.
Guess what color looks magnificent with aforementioned Cerulean blue? That's right, a richhh chocolate brown. Previously a Fall color, brown is here to transition you into summer by complementing all your Spring florals, plus, it will look great with your Spring Break tan. Shop shoes from Steve Madden and Madewell, and light knits from Anthropologie.

Trend #6: Earthy skincare + fragrance
These scents were made for breathing deeply.
There's only one way to compliment a gorgeous Spring outfit, and that's with a gorgeous Spring scent. In March we're loving soft botanical scents from ULTA, Sephora, and OSEA Malibu.
