3. Lots of layering

Layering not only adds warmth to your winter outfit but screams CHIC and TRENDY. Layering allows you to play with mixture of patterns and textures, and also recycle old dresses and make the most out of them.

4. Put a cape on

Capes or ponchos are always perfect choice when you want a dramatic and chic wear with minimal efforts. You can always pull in the look with jeans or dresses; opting for more prints would give a more unique look.

5. Explore your colour palette

Just because the weather is dull and gloomy, doesn’t mean you have to. Explore your colour palette this winter and try different coloured coats and blazers. Add scarves with a variety of textures, bright prints and colours to give a more vibrant and higher impact look.
