STYLE ADVICE: Ditch the Bulky Coat

February 1st, 2017 at 2:00am

Winter is in full swing and those of you Fashionistas/os living it up in cold weather know just how difficult it can be to blend warmth with style. Layering is a must to keep warm on the cold, long walk to class, but a bulky coat can get old really quickly.

This Fashionista exchanges the heavy winter coat for an effortless layered look. She started with a long sleeve white blouse and topped it with a thick cardigan. To finish the look she added a blanket scarf, which is definitely a winter 2016/2017 staple. By adding the scarf she not only accessorized this look to perfection, but she also added some much needed warmth. If you haven’t already purchased a blanket scarf or two, I highly recommend that you make it your top priority!

While the Fashionista in the photos chose to pair the outfit with some nice skinny jeans, for those of you in colder climates I would suggest potentially wearing some thermal leggings underneath for warmth. A pair of cute booties is always a go-to when deciding on an outfit. These booties are perfect because not only are they easy to pair with almost anything, but they also get very good traction for those of you dealing with snow right about now.

This outfit is definitely on the simple side, which makes it very easy to interchange with different pieces and colors. Most winter clothes tend to lean on the darker side, so the brighter colors chosen by this Fashionista really makes her stand out from everyone around her. Change up your wardrobe this winter and ditch the boring winter coat!
