The latest layered look to be a big hit amongst the street style set is doubling up on their coats and jackets. One of the most popular looks has been the denim jacket buttoned up and worn under a wool coat. Plus this means you’re getting wear from a classic summer staple. Bonus!
Another key look is layering a shirt, buttoned up to the top, under a slim-fit knit and if you’re really chilly you could always wear a vest under the shirt. This is the perfect combo to pair with a short skirt and ankle boots for stylish off-duty dressing. Add a collar to show you have your finger firmly on the fashion pulse.
This winter a key must-have is the sleeveless jacket. A faux-fur gilet is your ticket to boho style à la Olivia Palermo while a khaki one worn with denim creates an urban look and a motorcycle leather design will toughen up your knitwear. Plus this trend is set to continue for spring/summer so you’ll get more fash for your cash!
Gloves are not only a functional buy but they’re stylish to boot. The next best thing to a smart pair of leather gloves are cashmere arm warmers. These little softies are also the perfect style solution for what to wear with those tricky 3/4 length-sleeve jackets and capes.

Don’t shy away from colour while the sun is in hiding because lets face it we’d all be swathed in black 24/7 if we did that! Instead oxblood, midnight blue, cherry red, camel and emerald green will all brighten your mood on a dreary winter morning.
And don’t forget to top off your layered look with this winter warmer.
