How To Keep Warm And Stay Stylish This Winter - By: Jamie Simpson

With a chill to the air it may become more challenging to look stylish while being comfortable. Keeping warm is vital, even the most fashionable look will fall flat if you're shivering. A cosy look need not be frumpy, there are ways to enjoy trend and warmth at the same time. Layering, smart cold weather accessories and the fibre content of your choices are big factors in keeping warm while fashionable. The seasonal nature of women's fashion lends itself well to maintaining heat in the cool months.

Layering is both trendy and a smart way to stay warm. Adding a pair of thick tights can make wearing skirts or dresses a more viable option for inclement weather. Modern women's fashion offers a wide range of patterns and colours in warm hosiery for chilly days. Be careful to select patterned tight with a subtle design, too much emphasis on the legs can distract from the rest of an outfit. Several lines of feminine and comfortable long underwear are available, making it all the more appealing to be toasty when the cold winds are blowing. Look for designs with decorative or low necklines to ensure that under shirts still look stylish while adding warmth to an ensemble.

A classic winter women's fashion look is wool. Whether smart tailored trousers or a bulky knit sweater, wool is the fibre of choice for cold months. For the most bitterly cold days, pairing a finely knit sweater under a wool blazer can be a warm yet fashionable choice. Look for items with a partial wool content if the fibre tends to feel itchy, a wool and silk blend can be delightfully warm and feel pleasant against delicate skin. Wool-silk blend knitwear can be found as tee shirts, long sleeve tops and many other garments. While somewhat more expensive than all wool or synthetics, the lasting nature and comfort of the blend makes it well worth the added cost.

Winter accessories can add both warmth and style to one's look. Wide soft scarves have become a staple cold weather accent, favourites include cashmere scarves and larger shawl-like wraps. Choosing a simpler hairstyle for the winter months will make it easier to heed that motherly advice to wear a hat going outside. It really is true, having the crown of the head and one's ears covered will make a big difference when the winter winds kick up. Warm gloves or mittens are also highly advised, whether they be knit or leather an added lining will increase their cosiness. Furry or waterproof liners are preferred, but an added layer is often enough. The same applies to boots, while fashionable styles abound, choosing a waterproof or lined pair of boots will be far more practical and comfortable. It is possible to look very fashionable without catching a chill with some careful shopping for the right details.
