We love fashion and if you love fashion there is always interest and curiosity around the latest fashion trends. Here at Lots of Luxe, we like to focus on wearable trends. Trends that make sense for our personal style and wardrobe. In this blog post, we’re sharing some lovely fashion trends that are wearable and perfect for these early months of 2021.
Structured Bags
Structured handbags, specifically top-handle bags are trending. Elegant, polished structured bags add a touch of refinement to any of your looks. Dome satchels or ring-handled bags are a classic trend, really these don’t go out of style. For an extra fashionable touch, tie a delicate silk scarf to your structured bag and nail two trends at once.
Silky Scarves
Silk scarves, bandanas, and wraps are one chic trend. Use them however you wish, in your hair, around your handbag, or around your neck. Beautiful neutrals look wonderful when paired with a patterned scarf or wrap.
Chunky Chokers
If you love the look of chunky jewelry, you can find it everywhere now. Chunky necklaces, chokers, and earrings, especially gold, are very big. Chunky chains can give any outfit an edge, and chains can be incorporated into your look several different ways. If statement necklaces aren’t your thing, you can enjoy this trend by wearing a chain belt or even a chain-embellished handbag.
Elegant Elbow-Length Gloves
Nothing exudes elegance more than elbow-length, or “opera” gloves. If you love this trend and have been just dying to break out your fanciest pair, these are hot! Many fashion trends this year have been “borrowed” from decades past, including this comeback. If you happen to be attending a formal event (with social distancing built in, of course), opera gloves can be paired with a stately dress.
Riding Boots
It’s time to break out the boots! Playing into the western inspiration trends that we saw in the fall collections are riding boots. Boots of all kinds are a welcome fall and winter trend for many of us. This year, relatively flat-heeled, up to the knee boots are very popular. This looks sharp with a pair of skinny jeans or leggings. But, really, wear any of your favorite boots, you just can’t go wrong with a classic pair of boots.
Western-Inspired Accents
Along with riding boots, which have really turned into a fall/winter staple, other equestrian-inspired looks seem to be everywhere. You’ll see western-influenced belts, hats, and boots everywhere. From brimmed hats to fancy belt buckles to fringe, this trend can be one to add to your already classic neutrals.
Slim-Silhouette Sunglasses
Tiny sunglasses are everywhere right now, thanks to many models and celebrities bringing in the trend. Thin oval, rectangle, and cat-eye lenses are options if you want to try out this trend. Of course, if you don’t think thin frames suit your face, stick with the sunglasses you love.
Statement Earrings
Bold statement earrings are big, as well. If small, dainty studs are more your thing, don’t be afraid to try chunkier dangles. You’ll tend to see a lot of oversized pearls and gems in many statement earrings now and into the new year. Any kind of statement jewelry can really make an outfit pop.
Simple Suits
Let it be simple! Sometimes, the most stunning looks are the most simple. Chic suit basics are classic and always in style. Mix and match neutral polished blazers, collared shirts, turtlenecks, and bottoms for easy outfit options. Along with the simple suit trend, is to wear a tonal (solid color from head-to-toe) simple suit. Tonal dressing doesn’t mean all pieces have to be the exact same color, but they do need to be in the same “color family” and agreeable together. Check out what all the former FLOTUS wore to President Biden’s inauguration. Simple (except for current FLOTUS) tonal suiting.
Polished Patterns
To add some flair to your camel, cream, ivory, or black fall neutrals, add some of these season’s edgy patterns. Mixing your dreamy neutrals with classic tweed, tortoise, jacquard, or even animal print is a no-fail look that is always in style.
