In these cold winter months, getting out of bed can be hard enough and what’s harder is mustering up the desire to wear a cute outfit when you know all you are going to be doing is throwing a sweatshirt, jacket, and scarf over top and basically ruining the look. Trust me, I’ve been there and I have those days where all I want to do is throw on a pair of leggings, a sweatshirt, a jacket and leave. But I promise it is possible to just put in a little more effort and rock the cold weather look.
The most important thing is to remember to LAYER. Start with a base shirt and work off that. I’m wearing a chambray shirt but flannels or any other collard shirt works just as well. Then add your sweater or sweatshirt. Keep the collar out of the sweater and you’ve got yourself a super cute layered look!! Scarves or statement necklaces work really well with this look so have fun accessorizing!
Peacoat’s can also be super cute but keep in mind sometimes they aren’t the warmest option.
Here’s my latest outfit for when the temperatures get low…
Peacoat: similar
Scarf: similar
Chambray Shirt: Von Maur
Boots: L. L. Bean

Carolyn, I loved your post! I started reading it and thought it was written by a professional until I saw your picture! Your pictures are beautiful, which doesn’t surprise me because you are beautiful! The scenery is lovely and perfect for illustrating your advice. I feel inspired to make myself a little cuter when I take Tilly out to do her “job”. Love, GC

Yes that’s a very cute and warm look! I always shy away from bright color coats but after seeing you wear it, I might change my mind! I have a grey coat similar to yours too that I wrote on my blog if you are interested to check out =)
