Everyone has the tendency to let their inner “fashionista” slip slightly when the colder months roll around. When it’s freezing outside (especially here in New England) it seems much easier to throw on a sweatshirt, yoga pants, and an old pair of Uggs to try and brave the cold. Looking for a way to stay warm yet remain stylish? Look no further! These 4 cozy items are an essential to your wardrobe for the winter months.
Urban Outfitters: BDG Marled Cable Fisherman Cardigan $69.00
I really love this because the cable knit makes it so much heavier than your average cardigan. I also really like the accent of the big buttons and the variety of colors they offer. This is a great staple to have in your wardrobe; it’s easy to throw over practically anything and will definitely keep you warm!
Top Shop: Washable Hooded Coat $100
Tired of your Northface? Try a heavy double-breasted coat this season instead. This camel color is gorgeous and will match all your jeans, pants, and boots. For only 100 bucks, this coat is an instant classic! It’s even washable and includes a cute (and very practical) hood. It would definitely be an investment to your closet…and warmth!
Urban Outfitters: Cooperative Waffle Knit Eternity Scarf $34.00
Who doesn’t love scarves during frigid weather? Circle scarves are especially big this year, and this one from Urban Outfitters is gorgeous! This will be sure to keep you nice and warm as you walk from class to class. By the way, all the reviews on the website praise about how “soft, thick, and WARM” it is! I will definitely be picking this up before our next snowstorm hits.
Steve Madden: Natallee Boot $189.99
Ditch the Uggs this winter. Please. Invest in a nice pair of riding boots instead! Not only are they a chic classic, but also boots really do make a difference and will keep your feet warmer than any other shoe.
