Trends To Watch In 2025: A Seasonal Guide

As we eagerly wave goodbye to 2024 and waltz into 2025, it’s time to turn the page and embrace the promise and possibilities of the new year. Let’s take a stroll through the seasons, uncovering trends and events that will shape our year ahead.

Spring Flavors Meet Color: Mocha Mousse Takes Center Stage in 2025

Spring isn’t just a season; it’s a fresh start. Innovation blooms alongside the flowers. Eco-friendly products are all the rage as sustainability continues to captivate our hearts. Expect to see earthy tones taking over fashion and home decor as we embrace comforting and warm palettes. This year, the Pantone Color Institute inspires us with PANTONE 17-1230 Mocha Mousse—a rich, warm brown that mirrors our collective yearning for comfort and stability. Add a splash of warmth in the kitchen with our Phantom Chef 5-piece Bakeware Bundle in Coconut.

Highlight Event: The World Expo in Osaka, Japan starts in April. It dazzles with futuristic innovations and vibrant cultural showcases. This event promises to sprinkle some technological fairy dust over 2025 and beyond.

Sizzling Summer: Spice Up Your Routine

Summer 2025 promises to dazzle with immersive travel experiences becoming all the rage. Say goodbye to cookie-cutter itineraries and hello to personalized adventures and off-the-beaten-path escapes. Prepare to uncover hidden gems like Slovenia’s enchanting Lake Bled or meander through Portugal’s lesser-known Alentejo region. As you pack for these far-off adventures, don’t forget the Fyn & Fia one-piece swimsuit in Pantone’s color of the year—perfect for making waves in any exotic locale.

Highlight Event: The Glastonbury Festival, from June 25–29, 2025, offers a vibrant tapestry of music, arts, and culture. It’s a must-visit event where legendary performances and a diverse lineup create an unforgettable experience, set against the iconic Somerset backdrop.

Autumn Adventures: Embrace the Fitness Frenzy

As the leaves turn and the air crisps, autumn beckons us outdoors for fitness and wellness pursuits. Running takes center stage as temperatures drop and make for ideal running conditions. To enhance your fitness, the Apple Watch Ultra 2 GPS + Cellular is a must-have to track your miles and progress,

Highlight Event: The iconic New York City marathon on November 2nd draws in running and fitness enthusiasts from around the globe. It’s the perfect time to pound the pavement and explore the city, appreciating autumn’s vibrant scenery.

Winter Wonders: Hollywood’s Holiday Blockbusters

As we descend into winter, it’s not just the holiday lights that brighten the season—Hollywood’s December blockbusters are here to dazzle us. Next year’s lineup promises excitement and enchantment, offering something for all ages. Save the date: December 19th, 2025 when James Cameron’s sequel Avatar: Fire and Ash spectacularly premieres. But the film that’s expected to capture the hearts of young families is A Hundred Acre Christmas, hitting theaters on Christmas Day 2025. Grab an AMC Theatres Gift Card for the movie buff in your family.

Highlight Event: As the year wraps up, don’t blink and miss the biggest celestial event of 2025. On December 14th keep your eyes to the sky for the Geminid meteor shower. Lighting up the December skies, this shower can produce 75 meteors per hour at its peak leaving stargazers breathless and usher 2025 out with an astronomical bang.

As we embrace the festive season, the DealDash team sends warm wishes to you and your loved ones. May your holidays be filled with laughter, joy, and cherished memories. Here’s to a fantastic 2025—happy holidays from all of us at DealDash!

Labour vs. Labor: A Long Weekend For Both Nations!

Oh, Labour Day Weekend! The grand finale of summer where folks across the pond gloriously forget the proper spelling of “labor.” So let’s travel back in time to the late 19th century. Imagine a group of hardworking workers (who wore mustaches and ridiculously high-waisted pants) demanding better working conditions. They were like, “Hey, we deserve an extra day to go fishing or, I dunno, take up synchronized napping!” Hence, this spectacular holiday was born out of the hustle to not hustle. 🎉

Time to Chill and Grill

Bring on the BBQ cookouts and squeezing the very last drop out of summer! Speaking of drops, why not opt for a super refreshing mocktail this labour day to get those taste buds tingling? A watermelon mint cooler is like a summer kiss in a glass (without the awkward first-date vibes). Blend diced watermelon, fresh mint leaves, a squeeze of lime juice, and a splash of sparkling water. Serve over ice.

For the BBQ main event, you can’t go wrong with some lip-smacking BBQ ribs. Simply mix ketchup, brown sugar, apple cider vinegar, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika. Add a pinch of salt for an easy and delicious BBQ rib sauce. Keep it classic yet fabulous with a side of creamy coleslaw. It’s crunchy, it’s tangy, and it complements those ribs like a perfect dance partner.

Last but certainly not least, you can’t throw a summer bash without s’mores! Gooey marshmallow, melty chocolate, stuffed between graham crackers, creating a bite-sized explosion of nostalgia and happiness. There you have it, folks: a Labour Day menu guaranteed to get everybody home safe and in bed by 8 p.m. 😜

Three exciting days at DealDash!

Now, a bit of a drum roll please! I know you’re not reading this blog post for a history lesson on our grand tradition of lazing around … We’ve got an epic Labour Day Weekend that’s sure to impress!

Happy 4th of July!

America is a tune. It must be sung together. -Gerald Stanley Lee

All of us here at DealDash just want to wish you a Happy 4th of July! Today marks a whopping 248 years since the United States Declaration of Independence was signed in 1776. And while none of us can claim to have been there for the first few iterations of the 4th of July, now there are more Americans than ever who are excited to celebrate this historic day.

On behalf of all of us here at DealDash, we wish you a happy and safe 4th of July!

Do you have any special 4th of July plans? Keep reading to learn a bit about Independence Day, find out the most popular ways Americans are celebrating this year, and see what DealDash has in store for this special day.

The 4th of July: How it started

The 4th of July as USA’s Independence Day dates back to the 18th century. On July 4, 1776, the Continental Congress officially adopted the Declaration of Independence. This marked the thirteen American colonies’ break from Great Britian. The Declaration of Independence was written primarily by Thomas Jefferson. It outlined the problems that the 13 colonies had against King George III and British rule. Some of the main grievances outlined were unfair laws made that the colonies had no control over, taxes imposed by the king, and opposition against British troops that were stationed in the colonies.

After the Declaration of Independence was signed, the Revolutionary War intensified. The war eventually ended in 1793 with the Treaty of Paris was signed. The treaty recognized the United States as an independent nation, a fact we still celebrate hundreds of years later.

How will you celebrate?

So how do Americans choose to celebrate the 4th of July? Does one simply grab a cold beverage, light off some fireworks, and yell out, “Happy 4th of July!” to any and all passerbys? Well, yes and no. While food, fireworks, and a sense of patriotic unity rule the day, there are other ways to celebrate, too.

One very popular way to celebrate this year is by lounging at the pool, going for a swim or going boating to try and beat the heat. According to NPR, about 150 million people in the U.S. are affected this 4th of July weekend by extreme heat. There are excessive heat warnings in Mississippi, Arkansas, Arizona, Washington and other states. This extreme heat might disrupt some fireworks shows as some states are experiencing elevated fire warnings. But on the other hand, the heat makes a nice cool dip in the pool all the more appetizing.

You can also celebrate the 4th by watching a local parade, or attending a community celebration, like a historical reenactment or a picnic.

Be sure to celebrate the 4th with DealDash, too!
