Get Fashionable this Festive Season: Hot 2021 Winter Trends!

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at Waterloo chapter.

With winter coming along, it’s time to bring out the cold-weather essentials to your closet. As a sales associate working in fashion retail, I learned the hottest trends that will spice up your closet this season, all while keeping you warm.

  1. Bundle up in Blanket Scarves

Need to layer up, but you don’t want to wear those heavy down-filled coats or risk looking bulky? Blanket scarves are an essential piece to your closet that add a pop of colour to your look while keeping you warm for the winter cold.

  1. Plaid Your Way into Winter

Loving the flannel look in the fall? Well, don’t worry about it going away for the winter. The new crossover of a shirt and jacket known as the shacket will be your new best friend this winter season. Its plaid design is chic and comfy – a perfect combo to style up on a casual day out to run some of your errands. 

  1. It’s a Wool Wonderland

You can never go wrong with a wool coat during this season, especially with the various parties and festivities that occur throughout the end of the year. It can add a professional and elegant touch to your look when you’re heading out to dinner with a bunch of co-workers, or a fancy gathering with family and friends.

  1. Sparkle with Sequins

Of course, with parties and festivities, you can’t forget the glitter and the sparkles. This season, bring out your glam with sequins. This fun style can be edgy for a night out to celebrate, empowering your confidence.

  1. Make a Statement with Earrings

If sequins are too bold of a look for you, don’t worry – something as simple as a pair of sparkly earrings will do the job! They can enhance your face shape as well as brighten up your features with the sparkly jewels embellished on the earrings.
