New Year, New Clothes

Welcome to 2013!!!! The holidays are over and resolutions have begun to take effect. One of your resolutions should be updating that winter wardrobe. There's no reason to look drab just because the weather is.

One of the easiest and best ways to update your winter wardrobe is to add some great accessories and outerwear. For starters buy a brightly colored coat. A classic pea coat in a great color like bright orange or cobalt blue brings some brightness to those cold and dark winter days. Look to Kate Spade or J. Crew. Additionally, adding some brightly colored heels or a richly colored bag is an easy, and not overpowering way to add some color to your outfit.

For the bolder among us you can do head to toe color and a white winter coat. There's nothing saying that just because it's winter you have to be drab. All blacks and grays are a thing of the past, it's ok to wear bright colors as a main outfit staple now that it's winter. However, if you aren't feeling too bold add a rich color like a burgundy. It's still dark enough to keep up with the dark clothing theme of winter but gives a nice pop of color that looks great on most people.

Another great thing to add besides color is some playful prints or patterns. A great way to do this and not be too obnoxious is to have a statement scarf. You can find some really cute ones at a great price from Forever 21. You can also add in something like leopard, which is not too overpowering if done correctly like in a great tailored skirt. 







It's the time for resolutions and remaking yourself, and one of the best ways to reflect the new you is to add a new wardrobe. 

Happy Shopping!
