The Top Fashion Trends 2021 - How to Style Them with Coats or Jackets in Summer

Let’s have a look at some of the most interesting fashion trends for 2021 and see how we can incorporate stylish coats and jackets into those looks.

1. Maxi Dress

Long dresses are a fantastic spring/summer option as they are very comfortable and easy to wear. You don’t need to worry too much about mixing and matching various items of your outfit. You just put on your dress and you are ready to go. How easy!

STYLING TIP:

Maxi dresses look best combined with short jackets. Be careful with too many prints and patterns. If your dress is very colorful, stick to a neutral, simple jacket. And vice versa: you can brighten up a simple dress by wearing a fun, colorful jacket on top.

2. Jumpsuit

Fashionable jumpsuits are one of the most popular trends for spring/summer 2021 as they are unique and youthful. Some of the most popular styles include asymmetric cut and open back.

STYLING TIP: 

Depending on the style of your jumpsuit, you can wear it with both a light jacket or a coat. Just make sure that both items have a summery look and don’t look too heavy. A short jumpsuit will look great with a long white or beige coat and sexy stilettos for a stylish and feminine night-out look. For a more casual version, choose a funky jean jacket as in the picture above.

3. Floral Dress

Girly floral dresses are popular every spring and summer and this year is no exception. A colorful floral dress will look amazing with a simple jacket in a contrasting color or a light coat in trendy pastels. Recommended jacket and coat colors for this year: mint, light pink, baby blue, lavender, and white.

4. Shorts

This must-have summer item looks fantastic combined with a longer coat. It’s a great way to show off your legs, but still, look a little mysterious with a piece of fabric covering your thighs. Classic trench in beige or eye-catching geometric print will look very interesting. You may also opt for an elegant blue color as in the picture above.

5. Jeans

Jeans never go out of fashion and they are suitable for any time of the year. Just keep your version fresh and modern, opt for a boyfriend style or ripped model in light, washed-out blue this season.

STYLING TIP:

For the most updated, fashionable look this year were your jeans with a long, sporty coat in light grey, lilac, or lavender. You can opt for a fun cut with shorter sleeves and eye-catching front pockets to create a cool urban look. As you can see there are many ways how to wear jackets and coats this year and as long as you stick to a couple of basic rules, you will always look stylish and up-to-date. Don’t be afraid to experiment a little bit with your clothes and try some new combinations this year. Fashion, after all, should always be fun. Enjoy!
