Furry fashion trend

The summer season is reserved by us for looking hot in the trendiest outfits while monsoon makes us bring out all the neons. But why is winter styling usually drab and grey? Well, it doesn’t need to be this way as a winter wardrobe can be as colourful and stylish as you want it to be. From celebs donning smart pants and blazers to girls taking out a fashion parade of sorts in their warm winter skirts, women – you have lots to choose from. Let’s have a look.

A Head-y Mix Of Style

Only the winter season allows you to flaunt caps, beanies, hats, and more. So go for crocheted caps, woollen caps, Rastafarian beanies, Tartan hats, newsboy hats, colourful berets, felt hats with bows or anything else that catches your fancy. Shein and Romwe have a variety of styles to choose from.

Major Blazer

Blazers are no longer just a part of your winter work outfits as they can be embellished with a brooch or paired with a slit skirt or fleece skirt and leggings to look hot for a winter party too! Go for printed ones in floral, ikat, madhubani, geometric prints to add the oomph factor.

Top-sy Turvy

Love wearing red? Then experiment with red knitted tops paired with a contrasting outerwear like coats or quilted jackets to give a peek of the colour without looking too Santa Claus-y. Turtlenecks will never be out of trend but ditch the browns and blacks to opt for the ones in mustard yellow, lime green, ink blue or even fuchsia pink to go from boring to stylish. Designer kurtis or Cashmere suits with palazzo pants can be a good option if you wanna go ethnic.

Layer Buy Layer

If you want to stay stylish and warm then hiding under a big jacket is a big no-no. Layer a full sleeves top with a half sleeves sweater with detailing on it like pearls or a little shimmer or better still, wear a base layer of your favourite thermalwear+your favourite fleece dress+a thin quilted jacket and fleece leggings underneath. Now top this up with a long string pearl necklace to bring back the 20s vibe. This way, if you feel warmer afterwards, you can take off the jacket and still be warm and stylish.

Furry, Faux and Floral Fun

Winter clothing need not be about solid colours only. Have fun with floral printed sweatshirts and sweaters. Pair them with faux fur jackets or hoodies with fur lining to keep out the chill and protect your head.

Scarf It Up

Scarves are the ubiquitous fashion accessory that can be used by you to bring up the style quotient in so many ways. Wrap them around your neck or wear them around your head, make them into a belt or turn them into a wrap to style a top – the sky is the limit. Style tip: Go for Kantha-work scarf to look unique.

Leather Weather

Make comfort and style go hand in hand when you choose to flaunt something in leather this season. Go for leather detailing in your sweaters and coats or go full fledged with leather jackets but in shades like dark green or light pink to break the monotony. If the leather look is not something that you like to include in your items to wear then carry a big faux leather bag to flaunt the look.

Bootsie Footsie

A pair of boots has become a must in an Indian girl’s wardrobe for the winter even though we live in a tropical country where temperatures usually do not dip too low for a long time. Mad as we are about everything trendy, we tend to opt for boots as the first option for footwear in winter season. This year, go high on boots but you can also sneak in to pair leg warmers with your favourite shoes to create a bootsie look without wearing boots! Feeling funky? Then opt for cartoon socks or socks in whatever print you like and make sure they are visible from your ankle length casual pants for a cheeky vibe!

So from caps to boots and everything in between, make sure you make heads turn and get the temperatures up even as the mercury spirals down this season with these winter fashion tips.
