The harsh winter is here, and it can be hard to find clothes that can withstand the cold while also looking stylish. Look no further! Below you will find the cutest, trendy, MUST-HAVES to stay warm and fashionable.

1. Classic UGG boots (or knockoffs) The cutest ones are the tall and medium/short ones, but you can get whatever length you want. Some classic colors for every outfit are chestnut, dark brown, or black. If you wanna experiment and get some different colors, you could find some pink or grey uggs to still fit in a winter theme. You can find these styles online at UGG.com, in shoe stores, or online on shoe websites and Amazon.

   

   2. Puffer Jacket (fur hood is best!)- good options are from Hollister because it keeps you warm and still looks very stylish, but you can find these types of jackets in many different places. Other options are Superdry, Amazon, or just by searching online.

   

   3. Faux Fur – Always must be faux because animal cruelty is wrong! A fur coat can bring a basic outfit to an elevated high fashion look. It’s perfect for going out to a nice restaurant, or just going out at night with friends during the harsh winter. High fashion, and warm! You can find these on many online stores by searching for “faux fur winter coats,” or you can find nice vintage ones at thrift stores. 

   

   4. Warm basics – An essential for winter is basic tops that aren’t paper thin. There are several good options of basic long and short sleeve tops that have thick material that will help keep you cozy. You can find these at stores like Aerie, Aeropostale, and other stores with good quality or thick materials.

   5. Plaid! – You can layer a medium or large warm plaid jacket over a cute outfit to stay warm and trendy. You can also incorporate plaid into your other clothes, like a plaid top or skirt. You can find this winter statement jacket anywhere in stores like Target, H&M, and Zara.

   

   6. A good pair of jeans – (lowrise is the cutest in my opinion but it’s all about what makes you the most comfortable! You can find some good jeans in thrift stores, or you can go to name brand stores like Levi’s and Hollister. The cutest jean styles are bootcut and straight, but you can go classic with skinny jeans, or old-school with baggy mom jeans. Either way, it will keep you warm and stylish!

   

   7.  Leg warmers to pair with your jeans and uggs! Leg warmers can instantly boost your winter outfit’s style game, while also making your legs even warmer!

   8. Good pair of fleece lined tights so you can still wear shorts. Fleece lined tights are the most important thing to have this winter, if you don’t want to sacrifice your style for the cold. With these you can wear it with your skirts, shorts, and dresses to stay toasty! They sell ones with black tints like normal tights, and skin tone colors.
