- Elegant Gloves -- Whether you love classic leather, sumptuous cashmere or basic knits, a well-made pair of gloves can complete your entire ensemble. Don’t be afraid to think beyond basic black (or brown) -- a colored pair of gloves is always in style and brings an element of whimsy to otherwise-traditional outerwear.
- Chic Coats -- A shapeless, poofy coat may be warm, but it isn’t doing anything for your figure. No matter what fabric you choose, find a fitted coat with creative detailing (yes, even down!). A unique neckline, contrast-stitching, bubble sleeves, a bold, buckled belt – embellishments like these turn a ho-hum coat into a timeless statement piece in your wardrobe. (Tip: If you are short or are trying to hide a few extra pounds, avoid double-breasted designs – they only draw attention to these areas!)
- Classy Hats -- A cocked, wool beret. A bucket brim. A coquettish cloche. The sky’s the limit on selecting a stylish hat to keep your head warm without succumbing to the common “knit beanie syndrome.” Your headwear choice literally tops off your look, so make sure it’s in line with the style you want to portray.
