It's early January and the temperatures have dropped, so you've reverted to wearing sweats every day and look like a hobo. Well, here are 15 types of outfits that every fashionista needs in her closet this winter that are simple and will keep you warm.
1. The Basic.
Maybe you're shopping the new year sales or catching up with friends, either way this simple look is a fun and easy trend this winter. Consisting of a long sleeved T-shirt dress, booties, and some simple accessories, you can be ready and out the door in just a few minutes.
2. The Rule Breaker.
Break free from the "don't wear white after Labor Day" rule with a pair of white skinnies. Dress them up with heels and a sweater and people won't even think twice about that old saying.
3. The Traveler.
We all have that one friend who seems to be in a different city every weekend. If you can't be that person, you can still dress like them! They always have on a coat or jacket and follow the most recent trends like cropped pants and booties. Don't be afraid to step out of your comfort zone this winter and try this daring look.
4. The Classic.
It doesn't get more classic than black and white during the winter. This cozy look even contrasts with various types of plaid and is topped off with a black hat and boots. It's cozy, cute, and can be worn anywhere.
5. Southern Belle Casual.
The South doesn't get nearly as cold as the north, but we still love to wear our cowboy boots! The best part about cowboy boots is that they go with everything and can be dressed up or dressed down, plus they're so comfortable!
6. The Almost All Black Everything.
My favorite trend this winter is black with a touch of color. Black is slimming, it goes with everything, it's mysterious, and it looks amazing. However, the touch of color is important unless you are going for that goth look you tried pulling off in middle school.
7. The Fur-real Life.
Fur vests and coats are not only a tasteful item but also practical to have in your wardrobe as the temperatures start dropping. It took some warming up to the idea for me at first, but now I don't know how I'd make it in the chilling thirty degree weather of Alabama without my fur jacket!
8. The Pastels Aren't Just For Spring.
A newer trend is wearing pastels in winter and everybody loves it. These colors brighten up an outfit and are good to add into your wardrobe so you're not constantly wearing all black and spiraling into a winter depression.
9. The Going Out.
Most people think you can't look cute when you go out in the winter-- and they are so very wrong. This sexy set shows off your curves while keeping you warm. Pair it with some heels or booties and you're ready for a night on the town.
10. Southern Belle Formal.
"Lace and pearls are for southern girls," but really they complete any classic look. Try them this winter paired with a skirt and tights or jeans topped off with booties.
11. The Boho Layered.
Growing up in the North I was always taught to layer, but not like this! Layering in the fashion world is so important, plus you can combine so many different sweaters and slips, creating slimming layers.
12. The Slouchy.
No, you don't want to dress up everyday this winter, but sweatpants don't exactly scream fashionista. Well, let me introduce you to the slouchy look! These slouchy pants are fashionable and comfortable. Adding a loose-fitting jacket and shirt along with Converse completes this simple look.
13. The Hippie.
Hooray for '70s inspired fashion. I love it. Please give me all the flared velvet pants in the world. They will also make you look skinnier when you are forced to wear heels with them.
14. The Over-Sized Knit.
You probably own an over-sized sweater because it screams winter. Honestly, how can you beat this timeless look? Add a pair of over-the-knee socks and curl up with some coffee. Doesn't that sound like the best day ever?
15. The Athlete.
Whether you work out or not, this outfit will allow you maximum comfort while still looking put together. It's a win-win for sure.
