Thermal underwear is required
Until recently, thermal underwear served as a faithful assistant only for athletes. Today, this is the choice of all fashionistas who do not have plans to shiver from the cold all winter. There are even more interesting things to do during this wonderful time of year!
The ideal thermal underwear will fit snugly to the body, which means it can be worn under any clothing. Here are the basic principles for properly combining thermal underwear with the rest of your look:
- leggings and tights with a thermal function are worn by fashionistas with jeans and trousers;
- thermal shorts or a combination is the best base for a miniskirt or dress;
- a T-shirt or top is worn under a turtleneck, shirt or blouse;
- Knee socks and socks allow you to wear shoes in winter without an impressive layer of fur.

How to look stylish in winter: features of outerwear
1. Coat. This will upset many fashionistas, but the coat is definitely not suitable for sub-zero temperatures. Style rules require that the coat remain thin, so a layer of insulation will negate all the elegance of this item of clothing.
Coats made of raincoat fabric also belong to the category of “anti-style”.
Therefore, as soon as the autumn coat stops warming even when paired with a warm sweater, you will have to hang it in the closet until spring arrives, and get a down jacket, fur coat or sheepskin coat to replace it.
2. Down jacket. How to look stylish in winter in a down jacket? Oversized style is in trend, so choose voluminous models with a simple cut and without unnecessary decoration. Please note that cropped down jackets will add unnecessary simplicity to your look. Together with jeans and boots, they do not make the best impression, despite the fact that this particular look is one of the most popular in our country in winter.
Unfortunately, you won’t be able to look elegant in a down jacket, and all attempts to make it more feminine end in failure. A jacket style that imitates a coat or dress is immediately discarded. A shortened model with ¾ sleeves will also not add beauty to the down jacket.
3. Sheepskin coat. The trend is for the simplest pilot-type models in oversized sizes. Made from well-crafted leather in neutral shades and without unnecessary details.
4. Parka. A universal answer to the question: how can men and women look stylish in winter? A win-win option is parkas in neutral colors: khaki, blue, olive. You can find a suitable model in mass market stores and in the sports department. The parka is well suited for outdoor activities, so manufacturers offer jackets designed for different temperature conditions.
5. Fur coat. Pleasure is not cheap. If funds are limited, it is better to buy a parka and a sheepskin coat so as not to limit yourself in style.
When buying outerwear, you should not take one size at a time; the jacket or fur coat should be loose enough so that you can wear a warm jacket or sweater underneath if the thermometer suddenly shows -25 °C.
Basic winter wardrobe
Any basic wardrobe with capsule sets is a lifesaver that saves fashionistas from the headache called “I have nothing to wear.” Here's what it should include to protect against severe cold:
- several basic turtlenecks and cardigans of good quality and different colors;
- It’s convenient to have at least 2 sweaters in stock: one classic with a fitted style, and the other oversized in accordance with the main fashion trends;
- for a woman who prefers a business style, we advise having a suit made of wool or tweed in her winter wardrobe - such a classic will never have competitors on the fashion Olympus;
- also, in cold weather, you can’t go without jeans made of thick fabric with a fleece lining - it’s better to choose stylish models with a high waist;
- a suede, denim or leather sundress goes perfectly with a turtleneck and creates a very cozy look;
- The last squeak of the season is high boots-stockings, which look great with most basic things and keep you warm at “A+”.

Layering Lessons
If you are wondering how to look stylish and fashionable in winter without freezing, you should pay attention to the fashion trend of recent seasons - multi-layered looks. There's an art to putting on layers of clothing without looking like a cabbage, but once you master it, stylish winter looks are guaranteed.
A win-win formula for a fashionable look under the sign of multi-layering is clothes in the same color scheme. This does not mean that you need to dress in one color from head to toe. Play with shades, textures and accessories, and you will create a truly interesting and at the same time discreet outfit.
But with active prints and bright colors, things are more complicated. There should be only one contrasting item in the image and it should act as the main accent.

How to look stylish in winter: 10 things you need to forget about
It is not so important to know absolutely all fashion trends; it is enough to have an idea of anti-trends so as not to look ridiculous and tasteless. Here are the top anti-style things that you need to say goodbye to once and for all:
1. “Cute” (“funny”) hat
“Cheerful” hats with pompoms, ears, eyes and other “cute” decorative elements are appropriate for little girls, but not for grown-up girls, much less women.
2. Knitted fingerless gloves
They are also mittens; during the Middle Ages they were used for work on the street, and in the 19th century they gained popularity among ladies of high society and performed an exclusively aesthetic function. Nowadays, they have lost their former relevance (except that street vendors still appreciate the convenience of these under-gloves when counting out money in the cold). Therefore, it is better to choose warm mittens or gloves.
3. Ugg boots in the city
No matter how much you say that UGGs are meant to be worn at home on bare feet, as soon as it starts to get cold, they are right there. Having lost their shape, original color and presentation thanks to slush and reagents, they trample the streets year after year because they are supposed to be convenient and stylish. No!
4. White boots
Just as impractical as UGGs, white boots also stubbornly hold their ground. With or without heels, boots and dutton boots that don’t match either clothes or accessories, dirty after just five minutes of walking along the city streets - that’s all of them. Why such sacrifices when there are plenty of much more attractive models?
5. Vests with fur
A fur vest is a strange item, it looks like it’s for winter, but it doesn’t seem like it. When the cold creeps under your clothes and the wind blows into the holes where the sleeves should be, even the most beautiful fur vest in winter will not make sense. Some people manage to wear it over a leather jacket or down jacket to keep it warmer. And for what? To show off a mangy fur coat? She's not worth it.
6. Nude tights
How can a girl look stylish in winter? Apparently, some people think about putting nylon tights on blue legs and, risking their health, they bravely wear 40 den tights in the cold, complementing them with a miniskirt and a short fur coat. What they are trying to prove and to whom is unknown, but a more inappropriate and sometimes vulgar image is difficult to imagine.
We focus on accessories
Manufacturers of winter outerwear rarely decide on rich, bright colors and opt for practicality. Yes, a black down jacket is incredibly comfortable, but at the same time incredibly boring.
If your outerwear is made in neutral colors, it's a great idea to mix it up with bright accessories. Decide on cozy hats, berets, scarves and mittens in the most life-affirming shades and they will definitely lift your spirits this winter.
Bright accessories can brighten up any look.
If the weather permits, create the image of a mysterious beauty with a wide-brimmed hat. This small detail can really change any girl beyond recognition.
Fashionable chunky knit hats
Dainty brooches can also transform any boring look. To decorate outerwear, choose pieces of medium or large size so that they blend harmoniously with the entire look. Brooches will also be a stylish way to give new life to a boring sweater or dress. Surely you have your own ideas. Then implement them quickly!
With the right accessories it's so easy to dress stylishly, so don't discount them when putting together your fashion looks.

Rule 5. Clothes
Winter clothes can be not only warm, but also beautiful and elegant. Most often in winter, girls prefer clothes in dark colors - black, grey, brown, blue. And completely in vain. A white coat, fur coat, cardigan looks very impressive in winter. If you still prefer outerwear in dark shades, dilute your appearance with a scarf and hat, gloves and a belt in contrasting colors, this will enliven and rejuvenate your look. A variety of accessories with pieces of fur, both natural and artificial, are always in fashion during the winter months.
Beautiful and elegant mink coat
Another secret to avoid freezing in winter is to wear thermal underwear. Gone are the days when it was considered clothing only for athletes or hunters. Now there is a wide variety of beautiful thermal underwear, different colors and models. Thanks to such underwear, you will retain your body heat, and you will not have the need to wear a hundred clothes.
Beautiful set of thermal underwear
In winter, you should not give preference only to trousers. Skirts and dresses have not been canceled. Give preference to warm natural fabrics and a loose fit, and you will not be completely cold, provided that you are wearing warm tights. In winter, wool dresses and long cardigans are especially popular. They look very beautiful and emphasize all the advantages of the figure. Dresses with short sleeves can be worn over long-sleeved socks, the main thing is to choose the right color combination.

Hat or hood?
Many fashionistas naively believe that if they put on a hood, then they are no longer afraid of the cold. The most important thing is that the hair remains safe and sound!
But the wind will certainly get through the hood, and this is already fraught with migraines, colds and hearing impairment. In addition, the hair suffers greatly from such exposure - it becomes brittle and dull. To cause damage to the hair, 10 minutes in the cold will be enough.
Therefore, we advise you not to neglect hats during the winter season. The most frost-resistant options are those made from wool and fur. The main trends of the 2018-2019 season will not allow fashionistas to freeze, because they offer a large selection of stylish hats.
The trend is fur and knitted hats of various styles, scarves and turbans.
In particularly severe cold, we recommend putting a hood on top of your headdress, and then you will definitely not have to worry about weather surprises. Remember, layers are in fashion!

Do I need a scarf?
The main secret to saving yourself from the cold is protecting all parts of the body. If some area is still open, then freezing cannot be avoided.
The throat is one of the most vulnerable parts, so a shirtfront or scarf will be a must-have attribute of your look.
Stylish snood
Today, the main must-have of the season is wide stoles or long voluminous knitted scarves.
With the help of such an accessory, fashionistas protect not only the throat, but also part of the face. The bravest girls wrap a scarf around their body and tuck its ends under the belt of their outerwear.
Ultra-fashionable stole
Interesting! Many designers have used this trick in their shows, so take note of it too.
