ALL IN THE DETAILS: Beanie Baby

When you live in northeastern Ohio in the middle of winter and walking 15 minutes to class every day is a dismal fact of life, bundling up is a must. On days when you feel like you can handle the cold and you head out to class sans hat or gloves, you can count on the wind punishing you ruthlessly. Sometimes you just have to bite the bullet until this merciless winter passes and pile on the layers. One simple and adorable way to fend yourself from the chilled air is wearing a beanie. They’re incredibly easy to throw on and can even fix a bad hair day. Talk about killing two birds with one stone.

This Fashionista’s navy and white speckled beanie is perfect for keeping her head toasty. Its thick knit fabric doesn’t let any wind through it, which shows that it is both functional and stylish at the same time. She also styles the beanie perfectly starting with a bright red sweater with a white stipe detail. Her beanie is a neutral color so it can be worn with anything, including the bold red of her sweater. The sweater is a little bit cropped so she pairs it with some dark wash denim jeans. She rolls up the hem of them to make some room for the brown-heeled ankle boots. She finishes off her look with a brown fur collared coat which ads the perfect amount of glam to her outfit. Styling a beanie is too easy and wearing one could save you from these frigid temperatures.

How To: Thankfully, beanies can be found anywhere and are incredibly inexpensive. Pick one up and throw it on with a cozy sweater and a pair of boyfriend jeans, and some ankle boots and you have yourself the perfect look for a frozen day.
