As we step into the new year, it’s time to explore the evolving trends that will shape our lifestyles, tantalize our taste buds and elevate our fashion game this year. Here are the top 10 trends to watch in 2024.
1. Tamarind Takes Center Stage
Leading the flavor revolution is tangy tamarind, named the Flavour of the Year by spice megabrand McCormick. Tamarind’s unique kick to the senses is set to elevate our culinary experiences.
2. Peach Fuzz: The Hue of 2024
Pantone has spoken, and Peach Fuzz is the color that will dominate our lives in 2024. This warm and inviting shade is bound to infuse our surroundings with a sense of coziness and tranquility. Let’s hope things stay as “peachy” as the chosen color.
3. Happy Hour Returns—with a Vengeance
Wine enthusiasts rejoice as the prediction for 2024 declares the return of Happy Hour—with a vengeance. In a world grappling with rising inflation, affordable indulgences are on the rise. Bid farewell to the $25 martinis and embrace the warmth and fuzziness of a well-deserved happy hour.
4. LinkedIn’s AI-Powered Personal Touch
The business world is not left untouched by trends, with LinkedIn witnessing an influx of AI-generated posts. As professionals strive to connect beyond the confines of work, a wave of personal posts is anticipated. However, let’s hope it doesn’t veer into oversharing territory, as reported by The Washington Post.
5. The Doll Blush Look: A Glamorous Comeback
In the realm of beauty, experts predict the return of the “doll face” with airbrushed flushes and ombré lips. Brands are gearing up with glow blushes to capture the essence of this trend, as reported by Allure.
6. Flag Football in the Limelight
Casual sports enthusiasts can rejoice as flag football gains more public attention. With the emergence of the American Flag Football League, this dynamic and fast-paced version of the game is set to captivate audiences across the nation.
7. Snacking on Whole Foods
In the realm of food, a shift towards whole foods such as mushrooms, walnuts, tempeh, and legumes is predicted for 2024. Consumers are increasingly drawn to natural alternatives, steering away from processed foods. Mushrooms, in particular, continue to be a trend, celebrated for their versatility across various sectors.
8. Tech-Infused Apparel
The intersection of fashion and technology reaches new heights in 2024. From smart fabrics that adapt to weather conditions to clothing with embedded technology, fashion becomes a seamless part of the connected lifestyle. Adobe recently unveiled their interactive dress that changes colours and patterns based on the wearer’s movements.
9. Nostalgia Vibes
Nostalgia continues to influence music trends in 2024. Artists are drawing inspiration from the past, reviving retro sounds, and creating a fusion of old and new, appealing to a broad audience that appreciates a sense of familiarity. Perhaps borrowing a little too heavily from The Who and Led Zeppelin, bands like Greta Van Fleet will continue to riff out to a younger crowd when their tour kicks off in February.
10. Multi-sensory Experiences
The convergence of lifestyle, food, fashion, and music is leading to the rise of multisensory experiences. Events and products are designed to engage multiple senses simultaneously, creating immersive and unforgettable moments. Blooloop lists Area15, an experiential art and entertainment complex in Las Vegas, as this year’s for art installations, state-of-the-art technology, retail and food & beverage.
As we step into 2024, these trends promise to add spice to our lives, both literally and metaphorically. From tantalizing flavors to vibrant colors, and from personal connections to wholesome foods, the coming year promises to be a diverse and exciting adventure. Embrace the trends, savour the moments, and let 2024 be a year of discovery and joy.
