Let’s face it: 2020 wasn’t the best year for a lot of different reasons, and while not the most important by any means, fashion was no exception. Sure, I initially enjoyed lounging around in comfy sweat pants and t-shirts while working from home thanks to the pandemic, but frankly, I miss getting to dress up in actual clothes to go out and do actual things. Fortunately, 2021’s fashion forecast (according to the Spring 2021 runways) is giving me something to look forward to (and a reason a shop for some new outfits that aren’t loungewear and pajamas).

The best part is that we don’t have to wait to get our hands on some of the hottest trends that are predicted to go viral in 2021. Many of the styles—from footwear to apparel and yes, even chic face mask coverings—are already online and shoppable. While you may not think of Amazon as your go-to destination to buy on-trend pieces to refresh a stale closet, the massive e-tailer actually has a surprisingly vast selection of trendy pieces on offer at a variety of different price points to suit any budget and sartorial taste.

From minimalist designs to fresh pastel colorways, 2021’s fashion trends are definitely worth getting excited about. Scroll through below to check out some 2021 trend pieces to add to your collection now.

Luxe Loungewear

Sweatsuits, loungewear, and well, straight-up pajamas have remained a solid sartorial staple in 2020 thanks to the pandemic, but this comfy “trend” will continue to be a thing next year too—only with a little more attention to detail and a more luxe vibe.

Paisley may make you think of psychedelic prints that peaked back in the ’70s, but this resurrected print trend is totally modernized with sophisticated and unexpected iterations.
