All Bundled Up: Winter Outerwear Trends
The dreary months from January through early March can feel long and cold, but that does not mean winter style has to suffer. Outerwear is both a functional and fashionable way to elevate any outfit. Outerwear should be an extension of your outfit, no longer just something you grab and throw on because of the weather. With new trends popping up every day and timeless classic looks, options are endless. Start looking through that coat closet and take your look to the next level.
Sleek and stylish
A leather jacket is a reliable go-to – fashionable, simple and easy to mix and match with almost any outfit. A classic black leather jacket is a staple in any wardrobe. Updated takes on the original style, including colored leather or unique detailing, add a statement element that helps an outfit stand out.
A timeless classic:
Wax jackets remain popular for good reason. Their durability and functionality place them at the top of the outerwear hierarchy without sacrificing style. The polished, streamlined look works for a wide range of occasions. Wear one while running errands and tackling a busy day, and it delivers both practicality and confidence.

Cozy and chic
Fur coats are a bold statement piece to wear throughout the winter months and come with a bonus of extra warmth. They make great layering pieces and can even serve as the focal point of an outfit. Pair a fur coat with a simple base look that needs that extra something special for a sophisticated masterpiece.

Wrapped Up for the Winter
Wrap coats have been especially popular this season, and are a great new addition to your coat closet. The wrap leaves you the option to dress the coat up or down, and creates endless outfit opportunities. Tie the wrap for a clean, professional look or leave it unwrapped to make it a little more casual.
