Fashion Update – What to Wear This Winter
by aviva
It suddenly got chilly where I live, so I’m getting serious about what to wear this winter. In case you haven’t been paying attention to the fashion mags either, I am here to update you on what’s hot – and warm – this season.
Fur – real or faux – has made a comeback, in the form of purses, hats, and shoes. Whether it’s the whole garment, or just trim, fur will be keeping a lot of people cozy this year.
The coolest new way to coordinate an outfit is for everything to be the same color, or color family. A rose-colored shirt with a burgundy skirt, for example. Now you have a great excuse to stock up on solid-colored tichels and hats for the winter! If you’re looking for the single-hottest color, go for the gold – metallica has been all over the runways.
Speaking of metallica, hardware is another major trend this season; handbag closures, big jewelry – and hair accessories. Look for zippered or studded headbands, belts with metal eyelets and studs, and shoes with big buckles.
Here’s one last thing that will make a lot of you smile. Both Elle and Style.com report that long flowy skirts – to the calf and ankle – are big features in a lot of the designer lines for this season. And you can wear them with comfy kitten heels or flat boots, and still look like you’re at the peak of fashion.

Its pretty cold where I’m at too but I don’t think I would wear any furs this winter. lol. But I do like the idea of the long flowy skirts. I’m trying to wear more skirts and getting out the habit of only wearing jeans. This is a great blog!!

nice thank u for the update
i tweeted the message
hello I love your side hoping I win some thing ,I have never own any thing.
Okay, I know what I’m supposed to do now. Anyhow, I don’t really wear hats on my head or anything in the winter, just mostly bands. My hair is too big to wear anything,
Love the metal hardware, not a fan of fur, I wish so bad I could wear the long flowy shirts, but they look terrible on me because I am too short! Thanks for the fun tonight! I tweeted also (@hairgirl1966)
Nice, sleek, and cozy!
Hey, posting hoping to win!
Love the new fashions! seems like it’s going to be a cold one this year in NY.
I have never wore hats but maybe its a good time to start since it gets so cold in Minnesota. I cant begin to count how many times my ears were frozen numb with -50 weather! I doubt I will ever get in to furs. But I will definately be color cordinating!
I love the black classy winter hat

faux fur is what’s happening…just ask stylist Rachel Zoe
Ooh, it makes me miss cold New York winters now that I’m in California. I only miss the winter for the fashion.
Hmm…not much of a gold girl myself. I’ll stick with the silver
I would realy love to win!!
I am going to look for the long flowy skirts.
I love the snow and I LOVE fur !! I have a GREAT looking fur hat that goes with just about every jacket imaginable! Fur is fun and IN in my book!!

I love the same color/ color family coordinates – way easy to do! Skirts are in too, hooray! I might have to go buy that outfit I was looking at after all – fits both categories!
not so into the fur thing myself, i guess just not everyone can pull it off

I’m not sure if i’m going to make it this year. I don’t know if I can get away with lots of gold and metal. I’m also not a huge fur person. Oh well.
