Scarves

Woolen, chunky, pashmina or silk: a good scarf is a make-or-break for a winter outfit! In vogue since time immemorial, scarves are one of the most utilitarian additions to your wardrobe, which will not only keep you warm, but provide a contrast, and complement the rest of your outfit. Silk scarves were a surprising hit for winter fashion in 2021, with the trend possibly continuing into 2022. Cashmere is also one of the most popular materials for scarves due to its soft and delicate texture. Pair your favourite scarves with jeans, overcoats, trenches and dresses this winter!
Tights or stockings

A fashion favourite, tights are still trending and for all good reasons. Winter fashion is all about combining style with comfort — nobody wants to sweat through layers of clothing only to be chilly when you take a layer off. The perfect way to turn your summer dresses into winter-appropriate wear is to pair them with tights: sheer, printed, bright neon colours or the classic black, they will keep you cosy while amping up your outfit at the same time.
Puffer jackets

Puffer jackets are perhaps the best bet for people looking for fuss-free winter fashion. Lightweight, versatile and incredibly comfortable, they will be a welcome addition to your wardrobe. However, in 2021, they were re-invented with new silhouettes and materials to make them even more conducive to winter fashion. Keep in mind that they’ll keep you very cosy so pair it with a lightweight inner-wear.
Blanket dressing

A roaring trend in 2021 and definitely a spill-over to 2022 fashion conversation, the term ‘blanket dressing’ is now synonymous with big, oversized winterwear. Think cosy woollen throws, perhaps cashmere as well, draped by stylish connoisseurs to brave the cold. Robe ties as well as high necked sweaters are usually paired with these outfits to provide an extra layer of snugness.
Classic blazers

Perfect for transitioning from work to glam, blazers offer the unique potential of being dressed up or down. Pair your favourite with a short dress, tights, warm boots for the cutest little date night outfit. The material of the blazer can range from wool, wool-blends, corduroy, denim etc!
