Fashion: As winter approaches, girls fear it, as the need to layer and bundle up overpowers cute outfits. But worry no more; here are some ideas gained from years of living in a windy city that helped us look pretty and remain warm.
Starting with accessories! They are essential not only to keeping warm but also to elevate the look. The first accessory that we love is mittens/gloves. Not only do they keep our hands warm, but they can add a pop of color. Finding a pair to fit everyone's personality has become easy, with many stores selling different designs, colors, and sizes. Stores like H&M, Zara, and even Target will help you find the basic or fun colors you are looking for anytime. But places like Etsy will help you find more personalized stuff. Secondly would be scarves. This has been integrated into winter outfits for years, but recently, the initiative has been taken to make them chicer. Paloma Wool, Acne Studios, and Susmies are some places to find unique items. Now, those are if you feel like treating yourself. However, stores like Gap and Target are your stores for cute and affordable pieces. And finally, to keep our ears from freezing, we have ear muffs. These were rarely used, but designers have worked hard to get more people into them. Places like Free People and Urban Outfitters are on a roll regarding darling ear muffs. It's essential to not only wear our winter items but also style them.
Choosing the perfect winter coat takes time and effort. Trying to pick from different colors, lengths, puffiness, and even brands can be a hassle. Here are some ideas to facilitate your next coat hunt. If you’re looking for a more upscale option, Aritzia is known for its iconic supper puff, 22 colors, and three lengths. Places like Marshalls and TJ Maxx carry name-brand coats for a cheaper price if you want to be a fashionista on a budget.
Additionally, for some prettier/unique options, there's Damson Madder and Sandy Liang, though these cost a pretty penny. Looking for trenches? Djerf Avenue and any local vintage store can instantly give you that cute business casual look. Or, if you want to unleash your inner Cruella Deville, don't be afraid to throw on a cute fur coat. Fur coats around this time are everywhere.
And your outfits are only complete with the final touch, which are shoes. Boots are an essential part of winter outfits. You can go with a classic look: a beloved pair of Uggs. Uggs come in different colors and sizes that fit any need and style. They have recently become more popular, and we are big fans of those with the darling bows on the back of the boot. And for our funky fashion girlies, Moon Boots should be on your to-buy list this winter. They have a variety of colors and rises to fit your desired look. Some adorable socks will do the trick to finalize a cute shoe look, and let's be honest, you can find socks anywhere. The key is to be patient and look in several places until you find the ones that perfectly match you!
So, remember that being warm and looking good is possible. Find the right items, and the snowy streets will become your runway. Stay Chic!
Xoxo,
