The winter season is upon us, and there cannot be a better time to layer up and keep warm. Yes, it can be challenging to want to dress up in anything apart from sweaters and soft joggers.

Still, plenty of other fashionable winter trends will make you want to experiment without compromising comfort. This winter season is all about puffy jackets and leather bottoms. Turtleneck t-shirts with body-hugging slacks and thigh-high boots are already a celebrity favourite this season. Also in style are baggy sweatshirts, sweatpants, cross-body bags, and larger-than-life sneakers.

If you are wondering what next to add to your closet without digging a deep hole in your pocket, refer to the recommendations below. Drishti Anand, Co-founder, LetsDressUp (LDU) has compiled some winter outfit ideas that are currently trending and will suit all body types.

Poncho Hoodies

Basic hoodies have dominated countless winters, but what is different this year is Poncho hoodies. It is not only warm and comfortable but also gives a sporty look. This is more than just an easy replacement for shawls, which can sometimes get challenging to manage. They are comfortable to wear across gender and ages too. Wear it over denim, slacks, or joggers, and kick up the athletic look a few notches. Complete this look with sneakers or ankle-length leather boots and a beanie of a similar shade as your Poncho hoodie.

Mufflers with pockets

If you want to embody a cute and casual look, be it to hang out with friends or as a college wear, you can vouch on mufflers with pockets for the same. This is one attire that needs no extra effort; wear it plain or add a few accessories, waist belts, or stockings for a stylish look. The mufflers are a style statement; you can customize it with your name or initials of letters you like or get in interesting motifs like flowers, etc. Moreover, you can customize the length as per your requirement. What more does one want? It acts like a warm overall with pockets to carry phones, cards, etc. You are sure to find something to your taste.

Color-Blocking Coats

There was once a time when donning contrasting tones was considered a fashion blunder. However, times have changed, and colour-blocking has emerged as a new trend that has received acceptance in the global fashion community. The bold and flashy outfits are especially loved and promoted by Instagram influencers. So, if you want to join the bandwagon, consider a duo-chrome combination when styling a coat or jacket, like the blend of orange with navy blue or pink with neon green. You can add a third or fourth colour to the outfit to increase complexity and unquestionably make a stronger statement.

Faux Leather Blazers

Blazers, as winterwear, have been around for quite some time now, but faux leather variants are new to this category. So, if you are considering investing in a blazer, getting a faux leather piece that will last you a lifetime is excellent. If you are going for muted hues, choose checked or floral prints as inner layers to enhance your outfit. Alternatively, if you choose a darker shade for your blazer, like a navy blue, maroon, or brown, keep the inner layer subtle in shades like yellow, peach, golden, or beige. Although most of you may think that a black blazer will look the best and go well with other combinations, try experimenting with different colours this one time.

Ponchos and Capes

Ponchos and Capes are the ultimate outfit hack for those who feel cold across the year and need a little something to keep warm. The thick fabric of both Ponchos and Capes will protect you from the wind chill and look supremely chic. The bonus is – that you won’t need to carry a scarf or shawl separately, as either of the cover-up garments will do the job well. Wear it over a solid crop top and a pleated skirt and pull off that cute girl vibe. And lastly, opt for boots and stockings to fetch that much-needed warmth to your feet.
