Cold Weather Accessories with Major "Cool Factor"

The inevitable changing of the seasons is here... one that I'm typically not in favor of. While winter style has come a long way than just bulky sweaters and puffer jackets, I find that I feel buried among my winter clothes as I struggle to show off my style with outerwear and cold weather accessories that speak to my personality.

But, there are ways to beat the cold with style. 

Being the non-traditionalist that I am, accessories that up the ante with their quirky nature are the ones I'll be wearing this year.

* Instead of ear muffs, I'll rock my Frends headphones to and from work. 

* Shoes that are monogrammed, like these City Girl Loafers from C. Wonder pack an adorable punch. Plus, I can wear my disdain for the snow with the sarcastically truthful, "Stop Freezing" Beanie from Zara. 

* Of course, an infinity scarf is a must to keep that bitter chill away from my bones. But if I had to leave you with one motivating idea to get you out of your outerwear funk, it's the poncho. I love the layered look they bring to skinny jeans and ankle boots. And when paired with a beanie... Talk about cool factor. 

Stay Cool In the Cold: Winter Accessories

I can't think of a witty thing to say about how ridiculously cold it is outside... because I'm too cold to think straight.

One thing I do know is that you don't have to look like an Eskimo (unless that's your thing) just because it's colder than the North Pole.

Even if you have a badass winter coat that is stylish and warm, it doesn't have to stop there. Piling on a hat, scarf and gloves adds cold weather flair to any look!

Headphones double as earmuffs, while knit turbans help keep static in your hair under control and can even be worn for an night out once you're indoors.


I'm a fan of both bright accessories and all black accouterments. The majority of my coats are black, so pairing them with brights keeps it fun, but staying with one color palette makes me feel put together.

Stay cool, but warm, my friends!
