How to Dress Cute in Cold Weather
The key to winter fashion is to play with textures and proportion. Here are some ideas on how:
Balance a warm, but bulky, coat with streamlined leggings that make your legs look slim.
On the other hand, if you’re wearing chunky snow boots, wear a tailored jacket up top.
Find a coat that stays close to your body and falls below the knee. Its streamlined silhouette is a practical way to look chic and elegant.
Use different fabrics for winter style with an edge. While it might not keep you warm, a hint of lace or velvet in winter adds a touch of femininity to traditional sweater fabrics: think a lace skirt under a wool sweater.
Cold Weather Fashion Tips
The biggest winter fashion tip is to not forget your accessories. Not only do they stop the warmth from escaping your body, they’re also a great way to add a pop to your outfit. Here are some of our favorite ways to wear them:
Hats keep our heads warm, and while a beanie is traditional cold weather gear, you shouldn’t be afraid to experiment with other styles. A wool fedora always looks classy, or you could try a baseball cap to add street edge to your winter fashion.
A statement scarf is an easy way to brighten up a plain winter outfit. Bold patterns, bright colors and cheeky prints are a good place to start.
Gloves will keep your hands warm, but do you want elegant, ’50s-style leather gloves or a more sporty ski style? Either way, they should be an essential part of your outfit.
Just like a scarf, you can also use your bag to make a quirky fashion statement. Pick something in a contrasting color to make it stand out.
