It’s the most wonderful time of the year! And by that I mean, the temps dropping, the snow falling, and everyone switching to heavier coats. Maybe it’s the hoopla around the holiday season, but the wintertime just contributes so much eye candy. There are the festive parties that require cocktail attire and those ugly holiday sweater moments, but then there’s also tons of room for making everyday statements (have you caught up on all the cold-weather fashion trends?)! Maybe you find dressing up in freezing temperatures difficult, but that’s all the more reason to embrace all things snuggly, cozy, and chic. Because, hey, you can give a good slay and still feel warm. Read and shop along for some fabulous winter outfits that’ll make you feel like you’re on your A-game and ready for your close-up, even if all you really want to be is at home in your pajamas.
