5 Stylish Ideas for January 2018

January 10, 2018 / 11 Comments

I don’t know about you all, but my feelings about winter go pretty much like this every year:

November: Ooh, that chilly, crisp air, those foggy mornings, sweater weather, yay!

December to January 1st: Smiling at the snowflakes outside, bundled up under a soft blanket, book in hand.

5 Stylish Ideas for January 2018

Glitter all the way

Glitter and sequins are huge for AW17/18! So why not have a bit of fun with them, and walk the line between classy and edgy? Glittery dresses, sweaters or even just nails are sure to put a smile on your face when the weather isn’t!

Ultra Violet breeze

Pantone’s 2018 colour also happens to be a favorite of mine. You can use Ultra Violet for a punch of vibrancy, or you can layer it in a more breezy, translucent fabric for an ethereal vibe. Slip a velvety, ruby coloured dress underneath an organza cardigan and complete the texture trifecta with a furry coat. Boho-chic is not just for summer!

Crimson love

Red has been everywhere this winter, and the good part is that you won’t need to forget about your cherry coloured pieces come spring. There’s always a way to incorporate this rich shade in your look, whether it’s through a big, bold coat or a plush matte lipstick!

On the fringe

Thanks to the popularity of the 70’s in recent seasons, fringe is BIG this winter. And who can blame you for wanting to sport it? It’s fun, it’s swishy and it’s such a statement in and of itself. One small suggestion- if you do choose a fringed piece, go all out with it and own it. It’s not for the shy, so wear it boldly and have fun!

Not so plain plaid

Plaid is amazing for winter, and as one of the star prints of 2018, I think it’s worth a double take. From a super preppy look, to boss lady chic, to a 50’s darling, plaid is a really easy way infuse that British air into your look. My tip: don’t make it too proper- plaid is already classic, so pair it with an out there piece to keep it from looking stuffy.

I hope you liked my suggestions for fun winter 2018 trends and stylish ways to wear them. Now I’d be super happy to hear if you tried any of my ideas and what you thought of them!
