7 Layering Pieces Every Woman Should Have for Winter
Ever since the first covering of snow landed on the ground this year, we've taken our efforts to bundle up and endure the bitter cold up a notch. No longer will one jacket suffice as far as your outerwear strategy is concerned. But fashion girls everywhere face a seasonal dilemma when confronted with the need to stay warm in the winter, seeing how easy it is to forgo any sense of style when getting dressed for the bitter cold.
The key to dressing fashionably in the winter months without compromising on comfort? Transform yourself into a human artichoke. In other words, learn how to layer well. For most of us, figuring out what it takes to effortlessly combine upward of three layers in one outfit turns out to be not so effortless. To guide you, we've selected seven pieces that we think are essential for layering this winter, so get ready to pile on all the scarves, sweaters, and wraps.
Keep reading to shop our picks, and be sure to share your own winter layering tricks with us in the comments section.
This is the perfect way to spice up any boring outfit and add a contrasting color and texture to your getup.
We're all about the drapey look this season. Besides, who wouldn't want an excuse to wear a blanket outside of the house?
Pile on the outerwear while outdoors, and then strip down to a cardigan over a tee once you're within the safe confines of artificial heating.
Ponchos and capes have a loose fit so that you can puff yourself up with an added 10 pounds of layers underneath and still look on trend.
Invest in a turtleneck tee to ensure that your neck is nice and snug all winter long! These babies look good with anything—under a sweater and a sleeveless dress, or simply on their own.
A good sweaterdress has all the answers. It's the easiest way to show a little leg and stay cozy at the same time.
These are great because they feature a thick material with a snug fit that will keep your stems from freezing. They're also some of the only pants we can think of that you can wear under a dress or skirt for an alluring look in winter.
