Sharing my go to winter fashion tips on staying cozy and fashionable as we head into the winter season. Because there’s nothing worse than having to choose between looking cute or being warm. I used to be the person that would choose style over warmth. But who said you couldn’t do both, seamlessly!

Layer like a PRO

There’s a technique to layering without looking overly bulky. You want to find pieces that are equally lightweight and warm. Take this turtleneck top that I always have in my arsenal. It provides me warmth, but it’s thin enough to layer under this jumpsuit and under this coat. It also has a nice amount of stretch so it can be manipulated easily.

Another way to layer is by wearing leggings or tights underneath your pants. I find this works best with wide leg pants, but if you’re wanting to wear more fitted pants, I would go for nylons (or pantyhose) and layer that with a pair of knee high socks. This ensures the ankles and calves are still kept nice and warm.

Go Oversized

Although I prefer my looks to be on the tapered side, when it comes to winter coats, I tend to go more oversized. Having extra room allows me to:

1. Wear sweaters underneath without feeling like I’m stuffed inside
2. Bundle up with a very big chunky scarf without worrying about it overtaking the coat
3. Button up when necessary while still being able to move freely

I used to be the type of person that didn’t think a winter coat was necessary. But a chic winter coat is absolutely necessary and I am now obsessed with them.

Cover Up the Extremities

Another one of my go to winter fashion tips is keeping the sensitive areas of my body (feet, hands, neck, ears) properly covered up. If these areas are warm, I’m less likely to feel like I’m freezing. Especially on a super cold day when the wind chill is biting, this is extremely important.

Ear muffs are going to be your best friend (if you live in super cold climates). Oversized scarves are the best because they can definitely double as a mini blanket if the occasion ever called for it. Gloves are necessary and manufacturers have finally gotten on the wave of making them tech friendly (i.e. you can use your phone without having to choose to get first degree frostbite on your fingers).

Those are my winter fashion tips on how to stay warm and look cute this season! Hope you found this post helpful!
