10 Winter Fashion Trends for your consideration
Winter doesn't have to be miserable when you know how to style accordingly! I've done a little digging to see what's trending for the upcoming season to elevate our Winter #aesthetic. Overall, it seems that these trends are a new revamped way of wearing timeless basics that will always have their place in fashion culture. It's easy to keep things simple when it comes to dressing warm in harsh inclement weather, BUT the end of 2018 into 2019 demands that true fashionistas step-up their style-game and not hold back! Fashion is all about pressing the envelope and taking risks that express your individuality yet has the power to influence those around you. You can stay cozy and look chic all at the same time by implementing these key trends into your Winter wardrobe.
Animal Prints
The louder the better! Make a fashion statement wherever you go with fierce prints that compliment every skin tone and figure.
Plaids
Grunge is back in full force as the 90s Revival continues on! To me, this print is very casual and works best on low-key days where you're running errands or meeting up with friends for Brunch and you want to look cute without overdoing it! Pair a plaid top with skinny jeans and knee-high boots for an easy go-to look.
Cardigans
These are great staples to layer over your blouses and tops during the Winter season. Search for bold cardigans that stray away from the norm such as vibrant/eye-catching colors and/or prints/patterns.
Double Duty: 2 Coats at Once
Try this runway trend that is guaranteed to keep you warm while you go about your daily escapades! I would recommend saving your money and utilize any extra coats that you have already within your home from previous seasons! Try contrasting length and structure such as rocking a fur or faux fur coat over a leather jacket or wear your cropped leather jack zipped up underneath a long coat, but leave the coat open to reveal to others your fashionista-flare!
Long Vests
These are a great go-to look when you want to look put-together and professional. Wear this trend over a long sleeve sweater to have #instastyle! I recommend purchasing a long vest that has pockets because everyone looks chic when they stand with their hands in their pockets!
Snake Skin
Handbags, shoes, belts, dresses, hats, scarves, jackets, you name it...just not all at once!
Leather
Leather will NEVER be a fashion faux-pas! To amp up your style-game, focus on leather or faux leather dresses that work perfectly for nights out; whether it be a cocktail party or a dinner date.
Chunky Sweaters
The bigger the better! From turtlenecks to v-necks, look for cute and cozy, and you won't go wrong. Basic knits and/or statement sweaters that speak a message (i.e. literal writing on them) are great options to consider while shopping as well.
Capes
Stay chic in the cold by incorporating a cape to your wardrobe! From laid back down-to-earth knits that are perfect for simple days to velvet high-fashion styles that demand to be seen during a night out on the town! You can mix this trend with the 2-Coat trend...just remove the second coat; wearing your cape underneath your top coat.
Brown is the New Black!
Give your black clothing a break this season (or at least tone it down a bit) by investing in brown tones that are warm and welcoming. Brown is another staple that compliments everyone! Go brown from head to toe with hats, blouses, sweaters, pants, skirts, and shoes (especially boots)! This brown trend is reminiscent of the 70s giving off groovy soulful vibes.
