All of us want to look stylish throughout the year but we can also agree that some seasons are simply better for fashion. For example, it is not that difficult to look trendy and gorgeous with sun-kissed skin, natural highlights in our hair, lightweight dresses, and all sorts of beautiful jewelry that gets more sparkle in the warmer months.
On the other hand, winter is more challenging when it comes to styling, as we first want to be super cozy and bundled up. Challenging doesn’t mean impossible, and with just a bit of effort and creativity, you can look chic even in the snowy wonderland. The key is in combining the right, fashionable accessories with your jumpers and cardigans.
We bring you the hottest winter accessories trends of this season that you should certainly have on your mind and in your closet.
Fancy totes
Thinking of tote bags, an image that pops up in your mind is probably that of a busy soccer mom who is running errands and trying to pick the kids up from school on time. A young businesswoman with a hectic schedule trying to finish work on time to meet up with her friends, while at the same time trying to find the keys to her car and her apartment, is also most likely to opt for a tote. In any case, a tote bag seems to be more of an item made with a focus on function, and not necessarily design. Well, the thing is that this is not true. Christian Dior, Versace, and Proenza Schouler are just some of the famous designer brands that have launched their eye-catching, luxurious totes. So, pairing a chic tote with your coat and boots is enough to make you stand out from the rest of the girls in the same or similar outfit.
Moreover, not only will this accessory prove to be practical but will make you look dressy even when you are busy buying groceries, carrying important contracts and presentations for work, or going out for a casual Saturday brunch with the girls.
Stacking your favorite gems
We very well know that layering gold and silver necklaces and chokers has been the ultimate summer trend for the last couple of years. We all love being able to show off some of our preferred pieces of jewelry, so why make it only a thing during the summer? Feel free to wear these necklaces over a turtleneck or a button-down shirt. Even more, the same applies to bracelets. The best is to bring a dash of summer into your overall look by adjourning it with a unique braided bracelet or even better, by stacking a few of them, which will make you look chic and cute. You can wear your arm candies with cozy jumpers or oversized hoodies, to give a romantic contrast to a sporty outfit.
If you want your braided bracelets to keep their beauty so you would be able to wear them the next summer, you should then go for the ones with stainless steel. Keep in mind that stacking bracelets or even a few dainty rings may be a better option for when you plan on wearing a scarf or shawl, as a necklace won’t be prominent enough in this case (and it may also get tangled up with the scarf).
Limitlessly cool bucket hats
A few years ago, bucket hats reappeared on the runways, after almost two decades of being considered obsolete in the fashion world. Instantly causing fashion lovers to love them or hate them, they still managed to become a hot item for spicing up spring and summer outfits. This year, we can safely say that they have become an all-year-round must-have trend, and designers have thus graced us with a variety of incredibly gorgeous fuzzy bucket hats.
You can easily combine them with puffer jackets and figure-flattering coats, as they can be found in numerous colors and even different patterns. Moreover, bucket hats are ideal for creating a snazzy, Instagrammable look as seen on the stunning model, Gigi Hadid. Simply pair a warm coat with a matching bucket hat, and go for some wide-leg jeans and sneakers. To add a bit of glamour to the look, don’t hesitate to go for a pair of heeled booties instead.
To sum up, we can say that it seems like this winter is going to be one of the most fashionable ones, according to the trends. You can easily create a beautiful and cozy outfit, simply by matching your favorite pieces with some of the mentioned trendy accessories. Whether you opt for lovely jewelry, hat, a tote bag, or all of them at the same time, it is guaranteed that you will love rocking an incredibly stylish, winter look.
