1. Knee-High Boots

Knee-high boots are not only stylish – it matches perfectly with leggings, skinny jeans, and oversized sweaters! It is a chic way to keep you warm while making your legs appear longer and slimmer. The long length also protects your legs from snow or rain – providing extra warmth by keeping you dry!

2. Oversized Sweaters

These sweaters are super easy to layer allowing you to achieve maximum warmth while looking stylish! Not only do these look great with leggings, oversized sweaters can hide any winter gains from all the Christmas feasts. Go for cashmere or knitted sweaters for extra warmth.

3. Pom Pom Hats/ Fedoras

Any wool or felt material hats/ fedoras will keep you warm without sacrificing on style. Moreover, they come in handy when you’re having a bad hair day.

4. Skinny Jeans

Allows you to layer multiple items on top for warmth and they look good with boots, heels, and flats.

5. Blanket Wrap Scarves

Blanket wrap scarves are the new trend of “the bigger the better” and there are countless ways to style them. They can make a simple plain outfit fashionable effortlessly.

6. Ponchos

They are an alternative to scarves and cardigans which is perfect on days when it is not too cold. Ponchos are to go for when you don’t want to wear a thick and heavy coat.

7. Big Purses or Bags

8. Warm Coat / Pea Coat

Go for colourful and bright coats as they will add a pop and highlight to a neutral, all black, or grey winter outfit.
