Riding Boots
One of the most versatile and on-trend winter accessories is the riding boot. These boots are meant to withstand activity and wear, so they're ideal for braving the elements. They can be matched with the simplest jeans, sweater, and flannel or they can dress down a midi skirt or knit dress.

Patterned Pants
Skirts and dresses can be a challenge for cold weather outfits, especially if you live somewhere with snow and wind. Switch up your style with linen or wool pants in stripes, plaid, polka dots, or paisley. Make it extra chic with ankle boots and a mid-lenght coat.

Blanket Coat
A blanket coat is the perfect snuggle-worthy winter top because it is long enough to keep you warm from head to toe. Cinch a classy plaid coat with a belt and pair it with over-the-knee boots for an elegant winter outfit.

Faux Fur Jacket
All outfits for winter need a statement piece that will turn heads. A soft, faux rabbit fur coat is a great retro look. Pair your warm coat with simple, modern accessories like a neutral-toned scarf and plain black ankle boots.

Leather Leggings
Leather always makes for a bold look, but it is also the perfect heat-trapping fabric for sexy winter outfits. Try them with a patterned jacket and high heels or dress them down with weather-friendly boots.
Patterned Coat
Every winter outfit needs a warm coat, but don't settle for a plain, drab design. Go for a bold pattern in wool or faux-fur, be it animal print, geometric shapes, or a mod design. Your coat will spice up your favorite winter staples in no time. Just think of how they would look with dark leggings, jeans, or leather boots.
Oversized Sweater
You'll want to curl up by the fireside with this look. A big, chunky-knit, oversized sweater is adorable with your favorite jeans or a skirt. Wear it on a lazy day with fleece-lined leggings or glam it up over a dress and over-the-knee boots.
