Happy Friday y'all!!
The official first day of winter is less than a week away (even though it feels like it has arrived in some places), so I thought it would be fun to round up the top basic pieces that you will need this season!
My absolute favorite thing to wear when it gets cold is a good chunky sweater! I love to be comfortable (and warm), and sweaters make you look a bit more put together than a hoodie does!The official first day of winter is less than a week away (even though it feels like it has arrived in some places), so I thought it would be fun to round up the top basic pieces that you will need this season!
1. Chunky Sweaters
2. Over-The-Knee Boots
I have become a huge fan of over-the-knee boots this season! I think they elevate your outfit to another level, and are so flirty and feminine! There are flat over-the-knee boots that are perfect to wear during the day, and heeled ones to wear at night! They can also help keep your legs warm, which is a plus!
3. Winter Accessories
Beanies and scarves are two of my favorite things to wear this time of year! They not only keep you warm, but they are super cute! I have at least five different colored beanies that I can't wait to wear this winter!
4. A Good Winter Coat
A good winter coat/jacket is essential, especially if you live up north! When the temperatures are freezing, but you still want to look cute, you need to have a coat that is downtown ready! You can never go wrong with a little faux fur lining!
5. A Dark Lip
If you love lipstick like I do, a dark lip for winter is a must! I still like to stick with my usual pink shades, but I will go a bit darker during the colder months! A fun lip can bring your outfit together, and will help bring a little bit of color to your face if you're as pale as I am during the winter!
I was excited about this post, until I saw that it was going to be in the mid 70's this weekend in Charleston! I'm just hoping most of my readers are from somewhere a little bit colder, and can actually appreciate this post! ;) At least it will be cold in Maryland the next couple of weeks, so I will definitely be packing the above basics in my suitcase!
Thanks so much for reading! xo

DeleteYes! I love all this cozy wear! However, living in Phoenix, Arizona where there aren't many days below 60 degrees, I don't get to wear all this cuteness often. But I still LOVE it!
ReplyDeleteThat's how I feel living in SC! It's a little better than Arizona I'm assuming, but sometimes I'm hoping for the colder days! xo
