While we’re beyond ready for a new year (yes, 2021, you have a lot of pressure on you), we’re also anxiously anticipating wearing fresh 2021 fashion trends. We’ve revealed the trends of the season according to shopping experts and editor-approved styles to usher in the New Year on-trend. Thus, my new season shopping has begun a bit early this year—what can I say, I’m ready for that New Year, New You energy.
From pastel pinks and plaid pants to the beloved square-toe boot, 2021 trends feel like the refresh we've been waiting for. We’ve undoubtedly adopted a relaxed way of dressing this year, but honestly, it’s anything but boring in 2021. And fortunately, I’ve found some of the styles I’ll be shopping for the new season at one of my go-to shopping destinations, Amazon—and they’re actually affordable. Keep scrolling to discover some of the top trend pieces for 2021 that will give your wardrobe that instant refresh for the New Year.
Fine, Instagram (and Miu Miu) convinced me I need a layering sweater vest this season.
