We have all been fooled by the weather mild and comfor we experienced before the break. Now, a real winter is upon us. We finally have our first real snow season (one at the end of October surely doesn’t count). Now it’s time to embrace the winter weather trends, bundle and adding a few pieces of versatile to your wardrobe. It’s all about layering to keep warm, with a classic that has been given a face lift.
Updated classic serves as a base for the winter wardrobe. Whether it’s the new fleece-lined or cashmere quilted flannel leggings, or chino pants corduroy, or these grounds will keep you warm all winter and can be dressed up or down depending on chance.
Flannel and boxes for men and women has become a staple of layering pieces and are available in many different styles and new this season. Uniqlo, which recently opened a store on Fifth Avenue, has more than 80 colors and patterns from which to choose, as well as various matches. Although considered wearing flannel tends to be more relaxed, can easily be dressed for the evening look is right. Men can sweaters under layers of flannel and pair it with a pair of pants, while women can wear them with sequined skirt or pencil pull-over embellished.
If the second layer, or even third, necessary, vests and knits often do the trick. For women, faux-fur vest is available in different lengths and styles and easily fit under most outerwear. One might think that a piece like this will destroy anyone’s budget, but affordable and eye-catching vests can be found at Forever 21, and Zara for a fraction of the price of a designer. In terms of knits, think it’s fair Isle, thick and cashmere to keep warm. Because it is right after the holiday season, cashmere sweaters can be purchased for the share price. They are a great way to add a pop of color or warmth to any ensemble.
In terms of outerwear, perhaps the most important layer of all traditional puffer coat, which is no longer just for skiing or people who are looking for just utility.
