Stay warm out there. The goal shouldn't be one BIG piece of outerwear. It should be lots of good layers.

What We’re Wearing

Winter Layers

Winter can feel dreadfully long. You never know the time because it gets dark way too early and I'm sure you're already getting tired of wearing the same coat day in and day out. Two out of three of those things we can't fix, but when it comes to revamping your wardrobe, we can assist. Our top suggestion? A lot of layers.

The key when layering is to opt for thinner layers that can pile on comfortably. Think more like a good piece of baklava, rather than a human marshmallow. This way, you've got ease of movement, plenty of insulation to keep you warm and a contrast of texture to make you look interesting. The result is both effortless and stylish. The winter rut may just be getting started, but reimagining your outfits can release some endorphins and break the monotony of how you normally dress.
