Keep warm with these fashion tips

Layers on layers on layers. It may seem like a hassle but with the degrees dropping  into the negatives, it’s better to be safer than sorry by bundling up before stepping outside. However, just because you have to layer up doesn’t mean you have to look like Randy from the Christmas Story. There are many ways that you can use layers to make your winter wardrobe more versatile.

First things first, invest in a good pair of skinny jeans. Make sure they are thick and not jeggings. This way when you are walking outside the wind will wont blow right through your jeans.To protect your legs even further from getting colder faster, wear thick legwarmers that go up above the knee with a pair of riding boots or Ugg boots.

Another necessity for your winter wardrobe is long sleeve shirts over thick comfy sweaters with wrap around scarves. These layers will help lock in the warmth underneath your coat. Lastly is your winter jacket. It is important to have one that goes to the knees. This will help keep your upper thighs warm. Its also helpful to have a hood with fur around the edges. When the wind is unbearable the hood will block the wind from hitting your face and the fur around the edges of the hood will keep your face warm.
