Some winter tones repeat every year. But for 2021, color trends have been a combination of traditional warms and brighter shades. Take note of the season’s trendiest colors as you finalize your winter wardrobe!
Navy
This color isn’t a surprise since nothing says winter like dark denim. To style it, you could wear a denim dress or jumpsuit paired with gold accessories and a tiny purse. You can also rock navy more subtly by adding a pair of heels or a tote bag in the hue.
Our Pick: Kelly & Katie Bamita Pumps in Navy ($49.99, shop here)
Army Green
A bit brighter than olive, army green is a fun addition to your go-to winter outfits. This is an easy color to style and layer with other winter hues. Try an army green dress under your favorite jacket, or make a statement by dressing up a pair of army green cargo pants with heels and a basic bodysuit.
Our Pick: Everlane The Utility Barrel Pant in Dark Moss ($88, shop here)
Rust
Some also call this deep-orange shade clay. It screams winter and adds some excitement without overwhelming an outfit. We love rust-colored wool and knits paired with brown accents, denim, or leather for an interesting combination of texture and color.
Our Pick: Madewell (Re)sourced Cotton V-Neck Sweatshirt in Afterglow Red ($65, shop here)
Bright Red
With the proper red clothing, you can match your seasonal decorations. To style bright red, think blazers, shoes, and purses! These accents will amp up any outfit comprised of basics.

Fuchsia
Would you have ever expected to be wearing bright pink as winter fashion? We sure didn’t see this one coming. To style fuchsia, stick with a neutral palette like camel or ivory, then bring in one bright piece – maybe a purse or a cardigan. You could also make the base of your look a fuchsia dress over which you layer basics.
Our Pick: Furla Metropolis Mini Crossbody in Flamingo Purple ($328, shop here)
Silver
Bring some shimmer and shine into your everyday looks by adding more silver to your wardrobe! This winter, we’re seeing silver on closet staples, not just special occasion dresses. Pair a silver skirt with a black top or a casual black dress with silver accents for a classy vibe.
Our Pick: Unique Bargain High-Waist Accordion-Pleated Midi Skirt in Silver ($31.49, shop here)
Lilac
Another unexpected trending color this winter is lilac. This sweet purple shade is no longer just for spring (although the pieces you buy will double nicely for the warmer months). To integrate lilac into your wardrobe, grab a sweater or even outwear in the hue, then pair it with basics.
