Winter is coming. Check out these tips to have the best winter wardrobe this year:

Start with a coat

A coat is the most important thing you have to pick out for cold weather. You will probably be wearing it for three solid months, so it has to be perfect. The cutest coat this year is the long eskimo coats, which have a cute furry hood and fleece that promises to keep you warm all winter. When it’s not quite that cold outside, the long trench coat with two rows of buttons will keep you cozy and fashionable.

Accessorize with a scarf

Picking the right scarf is so important. It can make or break your whole outfit! This year, the best scarves to have are the traditional long scarf, which is good for multi-layer cover. Also, the infinity scarf, which is a great accessory for a light coat or sweater. A scarf is so important to keep warm and looking great. 

Add some boots

You have to wear something on your feet, so why not get a pair of boots to stay warm and stylish? Booties, long boots, or boots with heels, all three keep your feet warm and safe from harm while looking super cute (but please, if you’re walking in snow or ice, go for the booties with really good traction so you don’t break your ankle.)

Find the perfect hat

Everyone loves a good hat, and winter is the perfect excuse to wear one! The two top choices this year are the classic fleece toboggan, which comes in practically any color and pattern, and the barrett, which is super cute and fluffy and makes anyone look amazing!

Feeling fancy? Try a dress!

Just because it’s cold doesn’t mean that you can’t rock a dress. The classic Christmas dress always looks amazing with a pair of tights or leggings and some cute accessories! Of course, there’s also the high-low dress that loves every figure and looks great with pretty much everything, including a coat if it gets really cold!

The perfect accent? A sweater!

Whether you want an ugly Christmas sweater, or a chic new design to go out on the town, a sweater is a great way to stay warm while still looking (and feeling) great. The best part is that they come in long and short styles, so you can pair it with a pair of leggings or jeans, your favotie pair of winter boots, and be ready for your day.
