It’s pretty hard to dislike Florida. But the hardest part about living here is not being able to break out your winter clothing for more than a month. Women are sipping on their pumpkin spice lattes anxiously awaiting the moment they can break out their knee high socks and boots, comfortable oversized sweaters and dark lipstick. What gets you excited about the Thanksgiving and Christmas holiday season? Here’s a list of my top must wears this holiday season.

Boots

Whether they are brown or black, tall, short, flat or with a heel, boots are the best part of a winter outfit. If you’re like me, you have a collection that you have purchased throughout the years, and that goes with every outfit. The great thing about it is, one pair can usually go with any outfit! I’ve noticed that the most popular style of boots this season is a high-rise knee-high boot. This style looks great with jeans, leggings, and even shorts!

Knee High Socks

Knee high socks have grown to be a very popular fashion trend, especially in the winter. As long as you’re wearing high socks that can be seen beyond your boots, you’re doing it right.

Dark Lipstick

Dark lips are an essential part of a make up look in winter. My personal favorite is dark maroon. Other popular colors are dark purple, dark brown, and of course, black.

Dark Hair

Going darker for the winter is a very popular look. Some gorgeous hair colors in the winter are going dark red, dark purple and jet black. Having a change in color can make you feel different and confident! It’s something fun to do if you’re ever feeling bored with your look.

Sweaters

Does this even need to be explained? Sweaters are the easiest and most comfortable thing to wear. Especially when it’s nice and chilly out. Nothing beats wearing an oversized sweater with tights or leggings.

Faux Fur Vests

These are the perfect extra accessory to wear with any sweater or long sleeve shirt. Especially if it’s not too cold to where you need to wear a coat or jacket, this serves as not only a fashionable accessory, but an extra vest layer to keep warm. Plus, they come in different colors so that you can match your boots or outfit.

Tights

Tights not only keep you warm, but they give you an option of wearing shorts or a skirt while still covering yourself up. Depending on how cold it is, you can wear thick or thin tights that are a solid color, or with a pattern such as fishnets!

Scarves

Scarves are great for not only covering your neck for when it’s windy and exceptionally cold, but are a wonderful accessory to add to an outfit. I personally have them in every possible color, and wear them every day in the winter. They are a must have fashionable winter accessory.
