2019 Trends you'll want to know about before spring

Spring 2019 fashion belongs to the fun and flirty, sporty and chic.

According to celebrity stylist and GQ Insider Dennis Kenney, "If you're someone on the go 24/7, your wardrobe should reflect that too."

And it doesn't have to be tacky.

Kenney told "GMA," from "transparent raincoats, tonal and monochromatic dressing, patterned suits, bike shorts, and colorful fringes," these 2019 trends are sure to have you taking on the spring like a boss.

Bold Blazers


"Blazers are on the few items that will never go out of style," Kenney told "GMA."

Wearing a blazer up or down is easy too. For a vintage-inspired look, a blazer can "be worn over your favorite graphic tee or buttoned up with nothing underneath for that sizzling evening moment," Kenney says.

For an "unexpected going out moment," he adds, "style the suit with a lacy bra instead of top."

For a more contemporary and stylish look, Kenney recommends to "style it full on with matching pants or take it back with denim."

The top handle bag is the "new party bag of the season," according to Kenney. It's versatile, adjustable and complements anything from a floral skirt to athletic day-wear.
