Ever look at your closet and think to yourself, What did I even wear before I bought this piece? For the fashion set, there's at least one piece (such as a basic staple or a statement bag) that is integral to personal style. Of course, what constitutes a great buy depends on the person. Some people live to follow the trends of the moment, while others prefer a good capsule wardrobe. So, what was actually worth buying this year? In order to satisfy my own curiosity, I asked 15 stylish women to share their best fashion buys of 2021. Consider this Spotify Wrapped for shopping.

How would you describe your personal style? 

My personal style is casual chic with a lot of neutral tones, however, I have been incorporating a pop of bold color here and there, and I love to wear pieces that make me feel powerful—like a suit or a structured trench coat.

How would you describe your personal style?

My everyday style is casual, but I'll never leave the house without a statement piece. I tend to invest in statement pieces because a pair of sparkly Saks Potts pants are just as timeless as a black blazer.
