Well. Here we are. With our second Spring 2021 trend. Which means we’ve been doing spring posts for over two months now! Whoa. Wait. Oh gosh — it’s almost winter again!! Okay, I’m being dramatic. But I’m only half joking. Anyway.

Behold. Be bold. On your shoulders. That’s the trend. Bold shoulders. Padded shoulders. Pointy shoulders. Puffy shoulders. Any garment that draws attention to the shoulders, because that shoulder area is covered in something big or weird or eccentric or cool or in any way out of the ordinary. Any and all dramatic shoulders. That’s what’s trending. Particularly: oversized blazers with padded shoulders. Grandpa blazers be everyyyyywhere these days.

Above are forty-four bold shouldered tops and dresses and blazers, pictured in ascending price order. And the first twenty-eight options featured are under $100. And mostly everything above is under $200.

Be shoulder brave, bebbbbbe.
