March 29, 2022 Consider the Cut-Out Dress

Consider the cut-out dress your new fashion friend. In fact, we’re so enamored with cut-outs this season that it’s one of the trends included in our spring selling guide.

If your mind rushes to those barely there cut-out dresses worn by celebrities and supermodels, think again. There are plenty of options out there with just a simple cut-out for a hint of skin.

Cut-out dresses are a little unexpected, which is our M.O. for spring and summer attire. Bring them out for date nights and vacations. They’re a fashion treat!

Keep scrolling to see some of our favorite cut-out dress looks we found recently on Instagram.

If you’re also ready for a spring closet clean and seasonal wardrobe refresh, we have plenty more trend ideas for you (30 in fact!) over here in our seasonal selling guide. Take a look at all the latest trends, then visit any of our store locations to see if we have the looks you’re dreaming of for spring and summer. HINT: we’re pretty sure we do!

Plus, bring in the clothes from your closet clean to sell for cash or store credit. You’ll refresh your closet for a fraction of the price.

March 22, 2022 How to Wear Berets

To be honest, there wouldn’t be many steps for an instruction manual on how to wear berets. You simply put one on your head, right?

However, this little hat can add so much style to your look. It can be worn leaning to one side, puffed at the top, or at the back of your head for a sweet halo effect.

It can add a pop of color, complete a monochromatic look, or make you feel like a Parisian headed to the Louvre for an afternoon of art.

But don’t just take our word for it: there’s styling inspiration ahead!

As a Pop of Color

That’s how to wear berets in a series of great outfit photos. How you style one is completely up to you, but we recommend a quick Instagram #beret scroll for even more options.

Berets are only one of 30 trends we’ve featured in our spring selling guide. Take a look to see the other trends we’re looking for this year. They’re just as fun!

Tell us about the fashion piece that “got away”.

There was a pair of Airmax 97s called the “Silver Bullets” that I’ve been eyeing online for the longest time. They came into the store on my day off so I didn’t get the chance to grab them. I’ll have them one day!

What are you excited to see come into your Crossroads store?

I know this is a stretch because it’s so specific, but I’m waiting on a pair of all-pink Wallabees.

Tell us about your favorite Crossroads find.

I found this really cool reversible floral skirt. (Skirt pictured above!)

What is your favorite Spring trend?

I’m excited to wear bright colors and printed pants!

What is your favorite thing about working at Crossroads?

My favorite thing about working at Crossroads would have to be the fact that I (as a buyer) essentially get to curate the store’s merchandise. It’s a great feeling to know customers are interested in what I’m buying in.

Check out the styles we are currently buying.
