Winter Cold Weather Accessories: Fall 2023
If you didn't know already, this is your reminder that winter outfits are all about accessorizing; when the temperatures drop, it's almost easier to feel the runway getting ready every morning. Casual tees you wore in the sun become long-sleeved, classy, and elegant. Denim shorts you used to throw on become your favorite pair of jeans or your newest comfiest leggings, paired with uggs and leg warmers—topped with a chunky scarf that hides your chills and a headband inspired by the cold, with a 70s twang.
As Fall begins, so do the accessories...
1. Blanket Scarves
There's no need for a blanket in the winter—just a blanket scarf. Feel and look the coziest, and adorn your neck with a chunky blanket scarf that hangs seamlessly into your outfits. All you need is a neutral pairing that goes with all of your outfits or a colorful pop to your neutral fall go-to’s.
2. Fuzzy Hat
Perfect for bad hair days and perfect for days you just want to look like that girl. The fuzzy hat is fluffy-fledged to make the simplest of outfits stand out in a crowd. Keep your ears and head warm, and most importantly—feel like a star.
3. Balaclava
The balaclava had humble beginnings as a practical accessory designed to shield individuals from harsh winter storms. Today, it has transformed into the edginess of movies like "Spring Breakers" or the utilitarian image of a ski mask. But for the fashion-forward individuals, those who appreciate both style and warmth, a balaclava is a versatile accessory waiting to be
explored. Delicate and graceful, intricately crocheted to drape across your face, or plush, snug, and substantial, providing much-needed warmth during the coldest of days. No matter the occasion, there's a balaclava to suit your needs.
4. Leg Warmers
Leg warmers might have found themselves a commodity for everyone with the surge of tabbies, ballet slippers, and ballerina core on the regular. But to keep our traditions in touch—let's not forget their original purpose—to keep us cozy during chilly days, and to accompany your favorite pair of Uggs or your go-to leggings, whether it's for a Pilates class or a casual walk for coffee. Pair them with a skirt to ensure your legs stay comfortably snug. Embrace the versatility of leg warmers, and don't hesitate to incorporate them into your attire when you need that extra touch of warmth. Time and trends have proven—there's never a wrong time to slip on a pair of leg warmers.
