Let’s face it: the last few seasons have been rough. But now, as we head into fall 2021, more people are finally getting out and enjoying life. And that means you need comfortable and stylish outfits for when you’re ready to take on the town.
If your wardrobe is in need of a little revitalization, we have you covered! Read on for our 2021 fall fashion picks and trends.
Bold and Beautiful
After a gloomy year (or two), we’re all in need of some fun and happiness. And your fall clothing is no exception.
This season, fill your closet with on-trend colors. Reach for bold, saturated shades that are sure to lift your spirits.
Jewel tones, playful primary colors, and color blocking were found all over the runways. And now, you can find these hues in time for fall. Try choosing knits in punchy colors. Or opt for flared trousers (another big trend this season) in a rich color like red or emerald green.
Get Ready, Get Set
Matching sets are one trend that keeps coming back, and they’re still fashionable this fall.
Last year, it was popular to mix-and-match tops and bottoms in similar shades. While that pairing still feels fresh in 2021, there are also many sets sold together everywhere from fast fashion shops to luxury brands.
A cozy, casual option is to go for a matching tracksuit set. This year, you can also try elevating your sets with tailored looks. A matching blazer and mini skirt is one way to look polished and put together while wearing a set.
Supersized
This year, fall coats take a go-big-or-go-home approach. Oversized outerwear is the next best thing to bringing a cozy blanket out with you.
This trend can be found in long sporty jackets, big leather coats, and baggy bomber jackets. And while big, bulky outwear may not be for everyone, there are ways to make it work regardless of your height or body type. Choose skinnier or more form-fitting bottoms, like leggings or a pencil skirt, to keep your outfit flattering.
Fringe Benefits
When you think of fringe, you may think of cowboys and leather jackets. But this fall, fringe is adding personality to a variety of garments, in a variety of ways.
Fringe jackets are always one option. But mini skirts, dress hems, fall sweaters, and even blazers are being adorned with fringe.
In 2021, look for a glittery bedazzled fringe instead of the traditional leather type. This instantly upgrades any outfit and adds a hint of glamour to your fall fashion.
Preppy Plaid
90s fashion has been inspiring contemporary fashion for the last couple of years. One example of this is in the latest preppy plaid trend.
90s plaid made popular by movies such as Clueless is making a huge comeback this fall. What better way to get into the back-to-school spirit than to rock a prep school uniform style?
Plaid skirts, blazers, and pants are all on-trend this season. You can even add a mini plaid handbag and some preppy loafers to complete the look.
Slide Into It
You may have gotten a little too comfortable in your house slippers. That’s okay! For fall 2021, mules and slides are just as cozy as they are trendy.
It makes sense that slide-type shoes would be popular for fall. After all, they’re the perfect bridge between summer’s sandals and warmer winter footwear like boots.
While heeled mules are a classic, try flat versions like those made by The Label. They’re easy to wear with everything from tailored workwear to party dresses.
Vest Dressed
Vests are a staple of fall fashion year after year. But vests have been taking center stage since last year in a variety of colors and styles.
The fall vests of the past were basic knits in fall colors like black, brown, and orange. But they’ve been remixed to fit every unique style you can think of. Checkerboard vests, cropped vests, distressed vests, and embellished vests are just some of the possibilities.
Combine this trend with the preppy plaid trend for a quirky schoolgirl look. Or merge it with the next trend on the list, grandma knits.
Grandma Knits for All Ages
Your grandma has probably always been a fashion queen. And this fall, in particular, her favorite knits are becoming popular with all ages.
Fall is always synonymous with the start of sweater weather. This year, those sweaters are being covered in charming designs grandma would certainly approve of.
Dainty flowers knitted into cozy sweaters is one example of what this trend looks like. Crochet is also super popular this year. For an eye-catching style, go for sweaters with a big print or image, such as landscape prints or animals.
These knits are cute, cozy, and perfect for any age.
That’s a Wrap
There are plenty of ways to wear mini skirts this season, from plaid styles to mini skirt suit sets. But for those wanting a little more coverage, wrap skirts are one trendy alternative this fall.
Wrap skirts are one of the most flattering pieces of clothing for all body types and shapes because they hug your curves while also draping and concealing your waist and thighs.
It’s no wonder, then, that this is a go-to in 2021. Choose midi styles with a slit, and layer with tights underneath on brisk autumn days.
