My favorite season has finally arrived! I love seeing colorful Christmas lights on the streets of New York City and drinking a cup of warm hot chocolate. But one thing I love the most is that I get to wear winter clothes. From scarves, coats, sweaters, and boots, I can dress up with endless coordinations, still looking cozy and stylish.
On any occasion, I like to dress simply, but especially during winter. Because of the cold weather, I have to dress warm enough, but I also like to keep my simple style. To do this, I wear two to three layers of thin clothes and add some chic winter accessories (hats, thick socks) to maintain heat. Also, I try to minimize the number of color tones of my outfit, limiting to three or four.
This simple winter outfit I’m wearing demonstrates my suggestions. I am wearing a gray turtleneck long sleeve shirt underneath a black knitted vest. Layering simple items helps to keep me warm, but also look stylish. The long black coat covers up a light layer of my cropped jeans and balances out the short length of my tops. To complete the look and stay trendy, I am wearing a gray beret hat and white slip-on sneakers. I always spot people wearing black coats, but just by adding these simple accessories makes me stand out from the crowd. Dressing simple and basic always saves me a lot of time, but I still look trendy, while trying to overdress tends to create fashion faux pas!
When shopping, try to buy the most basic items and then look out for accessories that express your personality. Because simplicity is the key to everything.
