Fashion is always changing. This December, make sure you are keeping up with the most up-to-date trends by stocking your closet with the following cold weather essentials. These trendy looks are sure to have you looking fashion-savvy throughout the holiday season and into the New Year.
The Plaid Pant
One of the reemerging 1990s trends, the essential plaid pant can be paired with a solid colored top. If you have a fancy fall event to attend, this outfit is a comfortable go-to, yet it also has a unique and bold look that will have heads turning to check out your style.
Striped Top
Stripes have been around for ages and are once again popular thanks to the booming grunge trend. This season, you will have a hard time not spotting stripes on the runway or the streets. Pairing a striped top with blue jeans and a belt will have you looking fashionable and fabulous. Not to mention, stripes are easy to style.
The Beret
What better way to express your love for culture than with a beret? This French accessory has recently become popular among teenagers in the United States. To make the most out of the look, pair the beret with a sweater, skirt, tights and knee-high boots. The best choice of additional accessories are hoop earrings and a small purse. The beret never fails to make a person look cute, creative and cultured.
Placing hair in a cowl neck sweater
Not only is placing your hair in a cowl neck sweater a good way to keep it out of the way, it also creates an edgy appearance that others will notice. This trend adds a fresh vibe to a traditional piece of clothing. Make sure to position your hair loosely in your sweater so that it looks natural.
Sports stripe jeans
Are your jeans looking a little too plain? Next time you’re out and about shopping, make sure to get your hands on jeans with the iconic sports stripe running down the side. Also a part of the emerging grunge trend, the sports stripe is popular among celebrities and can be seen on the runway.
The sherpa jacket
One winter essential to add to your closet is the iconic sherpa jacket. The jacket comes in a range of colors, with brown, grey, black and burgundy being the most popular. Sherpa is a heavyweight fabric commonly used to line coats and other outerwear. The majority of accessible sherpa fabrics are a synthetic blend of acrylic and polyester. However, cotton versions also exist. From bringing warmth to providing comfort, this coat has it all.
