2021 Winter Fashion Forecast

Winter is coming, which means it's time for a change in wardrobe. However, this year, we're ditching dull outfits for vibrant, luxurious winter ensembles this season.

If you're not sure what's hot in the cold, don't stress - Luxity's got your back. Keep reading for our top 8 winter must-haves to keep you warm and stylish.

1. Pochettes

For those who do not know, pochettes are an envelope-shaped handbag that resembles a larger baguette. Although these pretty purses reached peak popularity in the early 2000s, this year it’s making a clear comeback. In fact, it’s better than ever! The multi-pochette is fashionable enough to turn all your girlfriends green with envy but spacious enough to store all your everyday needs - what more could a fashionista ask for, right?
This season, everyone is dreaming about the Louis Vuitton Favorite PM in beautiful Monogram and Damier print and we’re here for it.

2. All-Leather Everything

The sexy dominatrix look is so hot right now. In fact, this look has been described as the new feminine silhouette or 'fashion fetishism'. 

You can pair any leather items in your closet together for a chic look, whether it’s a leather jacket, pants and boots or a leather shirt, skirt and high heels, go wild with this look and still look like a certified babe. 

Pro-tip: Don’t be afraid to experiment with different colour leather, burgundy and beige is a vibe this season. 

3. Designer Scarves

Scarves don’t only keep you warm, they’re a quick way to spruce up a dull outfit in a jiffy. From classic designer patterns to cosy cashmere and wool designs, scarves are a must-have for the chilly winter season. 

However, this year, Hermes, Burberry and Gucci have released the most stylish scarves that we’re absolutely obsessing over! 

Rectangular Sunglasses

Even in winter, a good pair of sunglasses are important when you’re living under the African sun. Sunglasses safeguard your eyes from the harmful UV rays emitting from the sun that cause wrinkles (euw), headaches and strain your pretty peepers. Not to mention, they make you look badass! 

We currently have heart eyes for rectangle sunglasses this winter. However, our favourite part about these stylish sunnies is that they can be worn in any colour. Whether it’s smokey red, olive red or any other bright-coloured rectangular frames. 

5. White Boots

Forget classic black boots, white winter boots are all the rage this year. The whole appeal of these boots is that it’s a little unexpected, which makes it feel more fashion-forward. Moreover, they boast a neutral colour, so you can easily dress up them with anything in your closet.

In fact, they aren’t just perfect for the chilly season, when spring and summer comes along again, you can pair your white ankle boots with a flowy floral dress, while a full denim ensemble is perfect for autumn weather. 

If you’re wondering which boot silhouette is best with this colour, the answer is all! Knee-high boots, ankle boots, western-style boots, Chelsea boots, block heels, chunky boots - you name it! We’re currently obsessing over just about any white boots - as long as they’re designer of course. 

6. Bright Faux-Fur Coats

When we said we’ll keep you warm and stylish, we meant it! These stylish coats will have you feeling cosy and warm inside with a bright outwear moment all winter long. Not to mention, these fun coats will instantly dress up even the dullest winter outfits in no time.

And sure, neutral black and browns are nice but why not turn heads with a bright and vibrant colourful coat. 

7. Logomania

This season, all the top designers seemed to collectively agree that it was time to rebrand the logomania craze that we know and love. However, instead of basting designer names loudly on garments and accessories, this time, our favourite designers took a more natural approach. Now, the logomania look everyone will be wearing is almost camouflaged into what looks like a print, but true fashion fanatics will be able to spot luxury logos immediately. 

8. Oversized Handbags

If you’re not into mini bags that hold nothing but your credit card and lipstick, then you’re going to love these practical carry-all handbags. After all, more is more this winter season.

This trend was spotted everywhere on the runway this year with different types of oversized shaped bags. Whether you're looking to invest in a classic shape or a trendier piece, the carry it all bag is guaranteed to serve looks all winter long.
