7 Fashion Trends for Women in 2021

As far as fashion goes, no year is ever the same as another. There’s no other industry that experiences a drastic change in trends faster than fashion; what is hot today could very well be history by tomorrow. The ever-changing landscape is incredibly rigorous where women’s fashion is at play. Every year there’s something new that is hot with everyone one of note trying their best to kill that look. Despite all the challenges of an ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, fashion in 2021 did not die out, and there are some juicy and saucy looks that women should expect to see this year; they include the following.

Oversized Jackets

Remember back in the 80s where people would be spotted with oversized jackets with shoulder pads making them look like they are about to fly off? Well, they are making a comeback, and they look better than ever. 2021 is the year where ladies can put to use their boyfriend’s oversized jackets and turn them into a fashion statement. They can go well with just about anything casual, from pencil trousers to free skirts and sneakers. You simply need to match up the colors nice and easy to avoid that clashing look that may destroy the image you are going for. Neutral colors will do you more justice; stick to those.

Masks

It is now mandatory to wear masks in many urban places around the world and as much as this may sound like a huge inconvenience, use that chance to make the most out of the situation. Rather than walk around with regular surgical masks, how about spicing things up by matching every outfit with a corresponding mask? This will have the same effect as having a matching scarf or handbag, and if you find a way to nail it right, you could be the next fashion icon waiting to be discovered. Feel free to experiment with different looks until you find the one that suits you best. You can even accessorize them with a matching hat or designer vinyl gloves.

Head Scarfs

Head scarfs will never run out of fashion; they keep making a comeback every year in one way or another, and 2021 is proving to be the same as all the other years. The one thing that makes headscarves such a delightful piece of fashion accessories is that they can be paired with any kind of style, be it casual or formal. You just need to nail the colors right, and you can pull off a head-turning look. It doesn’t matter whether you have long hair or not. You just have to find a way to wrap it around your head in a way that compliments your face well. Floral head scarves are among the most popular, and they go very well with full dresses, but you are free to experiment as nothing is written in stone.

Yellow Bags

For some reason, women have decided that 2021 is the year of the yellow bags, and they are everywhere. They come in varying sizes and shapes, but they all share varying shades of yellow, and the results that are produced by pairing them with various attires are simply magnificent. Depending on the size and nature of the bag, you can have it flung over your back, swing it from your hands or have it nestled under your arm. It all comes down to the outfit you chose to pair the bag with. 

Knee High Boots

Another regular fashion accessory that keeps coming back over and over again is knee-high boots, and this time, they are coming in several wild and exciting variations. Dating back to the 60s, knee-high boots have been loved by women over successive generations, and 20201 appears to be the year that tradition is upheld once more. Knee-high boots are the ideal option for women who want to pull off that chic style look effortlessly. It can go with just about anything, from pencil trousers to free dresses, skirts and even shorts. You can spice them up with leggings of your own choice and, depending on their color, match them up with the rest of your outfit. You can wear them to any event as long as you are comfortable in them.

Fringing Bags

You may have seen this somewhere on the streets. Lady handbags that have leather shearlings hanging down to create a hair-like effect when someone walks while carrying them. These types of bags have also been coming up over and over again, and each time they are getting better and bolder designs. Fringing bags can be paired with any kind of outfit, from the official look to the hippy outdoor look that you rock when going for a concert out in the summer. The length of the shearling is very important too as that will determine the kinds of outfit and shoes you can wear. Some even come with shearlings so long they touch the ground as they walk. What you chose to go with is down to your preference.

Floral Dresses

Once spring rolls by, flowers come out, and not just on trees. Floral dresses will never go out of style, and as long as it is bright outside, you are free to go as wild as you want. Floral dresses come in varying designs, and depending on your preferences, you can go with bright colored flower patterns or dull ones. The other big advantage of going with this style is the unlimited accessories you can pair them with, from handbags to shoes, hats, and scarves. You are free to go with any color that brings out the best in your skin tone for the best results.

Conclusion

Styles come and go every time, and all it takes is one simple shift, and the whole world follows suit. It can be a little expensive keeping up with these trends, but for lovers of fashion, that’s a small price to pay. To stay on top of the trends can be hard since things happen very quickly, but there are social media sites like Pinterest and Instagram that you can use to keep up to date with the developments.
