STYLE ADVICE: Elegantly Edgy

Look…at…her! This Fashionista is a total rock star in this edgy, yet feminine outfit. Here in Wisconsin, dressing up and looking cute is sometimes a struggle in the winter. Most of the time, all I want to do is wear warm sweatpants, a sweatshirt, and throw on my snow boots to avoid the biting cold and slippery ground. Although the winter weather can bring about cold and snow, you don’t have to sacrifice a super cute outfit. I am here to offer some style advice on doing just that, with inspiration coming from a fellow Style Guru and Fashionista herself!

Her maroon and black textured sweater dress is a winter wonder. The sweater-like material keeps her warmer in the cold air. The colors are perfect for this time of year and are super on-trend. On top of the dress is an addition that helps augment the already-elegant vibe. The black peacoat makes the outfit look put together, almost like she is prepared for a fun event that calls for a semi-formal look, or even a nice night out to dinner.

I claim this outfit to be “elegantly edgy” and this Fashionista truly proves her edginess from the tights to the lace up, combat-style booties. The chunky heel adds comfortable height to the outfit and puts a twist on the whole ensemble. To accessorize, she is wearing a dainty silver necklace with a square, jeweled pendant that adds the slightest touch of bling. I think that’s all this outfit needs—simple accessories. To finish the outfit, she made a “smart” move and put a smart watch on her wrist. A watch like that is perfect for on-the-go activities.

All in all, this outfit is perfect for weather in the Midwest. Despite the harsh cold air and snowy surroundings, sticking to pieces like this will make the winter more manageable. A sweater dress, tights to keep your legs warm, and a jacket to roam around will allow you to look your best. You truly do not have to surrender your cute and trendy clothes in the wintertime if you live somewhere where winter is effervescent. Ditch the snow boots and throw on a pair of cute booties!

Let this Fashionista be your inspiration if you’re yearning to add a spicy edge to an elegant outfit!
