Winter Layers

I've said it before (here) and I'll say it again...

There is a necessity for warmth during these Chicago winters. Are you all screaming, "Duh!" to yourself right now? But who says it can only happen by wearing a down filled sleeping bag with sleeves? Exactly. Try layering a few thin items with a few thick ones and of course, sweater tights and Hunters.

Recreate my look:

LOFT skirt (similar), Cuddl Duds long sleeve tee, denim shirt, LOFT sweaters (similar), J.Crew vest (similar), HUE tights, gray Hunters, Uniqlo beanie (similar), Tory Burch sunglasses, Nars Red Lizard lipstick

The More the Merrier

Layers, layers, layers. This time of year, I try to stay away from wearing a winter coat (unless its the best option with my ensemble). Therefore, I often rely on layers to keep me toasty in the Windy City. A tee, sweater, and a snood? Thigh high socks over tights? The more the merrier as far as I'm concerned.
