Winter Must Haves

It is now Drcember and so it's time to start dressing for winter. Where I live it gets cold really fast and has felt like winter for the last month. I thought now would be the perfect time to complile a list of my favorite things for winter. 

1. Knee socks and layers

Just because it's winter, doesn't mean you need to put all of your summer dresses away. I started with a black t shirt dress and added a Ralph Lauren plaid shirt and a green button up shirt from American Eagle on top. I love the effect this laying gives the outfit. I then added some textured black knee socks from Kohl's and black riding boots. 

2. Winter Prints

This is what I will probably wear from Christmas this year. The tights are fleece lined from Boscov's. You could wear them on their own, but it don't really wear tights on their own, so I added a black circle skirt. I tucked this super cute Aeropostale graphic into that. The shirt says Baby it's cold outside and it's so cute and one of my favorite Christmas songs. I wore this with my black JCPennys combat boots. To add a bit of color, I also added my red cashmere sweater. 

3. Leggings 

Leggings are so comfortable and I love wearing them with longer shirts and tunics. These are my favorite from American Eagle. I wore that with a simple green tunic from Wet Seal. Again I wore my combat boots, this time with socks to break up the black. You can add a scarf like this one from Old Navy to add more detail. 

4. Scarves

I love scarves because not only do they add warmth, but they're also super cute. This one I made, but you can find them practically everywhere. I wore it with my black leggings boots and socks like in the last look. I also wore an oversized chiffon top under a chambray shirt. I love the texture in this outfit. And the contrast in color. 

5. *Bonus* 

Static Guard! This is a life saver when it comes to winter time. I spray this on my scarf or sweater and my hair every morning. It really helps your hair from getting staticy from your outfit. 

Let me know what your winter essentials are! I love winter it's so pretty especially with all of the Christmas decorations! I'll be back next week!
