Winter may seem like a difficult time to be fashionable because of the low temperatures and cold breezes. While you have to cover up to stay warm, there are plenty of ways to look stylish in the winter. Here is some winter fashion advice for moms.

Invest in a comfortable yet fashionable coat

You will most likely wear a coat every day in the winter, and this coat will be the first aspect of your outfit that people will notice since you wear it over the rest of your clothing. Since your winter coat will be such a crucial part of your wardrobe for months, invest in one that you will enjoy wearing. Make sure it will be functional enough to keep you warm but also reflects your style.

Have a few plus size tops for backup

People often gain weight in the winter because the cold weather makes it harder to exercise by going for jogs or swimming. Have a few plus size formal tops in case of winter weight gain so that you will have an instant backup if you have trouble fitting into your other tops. There are plenty of fashion-forward plus size blouses that will make you look classy whether you are going to your kids' holiday concert or out to dinner with friends.

Accessories are everything

Accessories such as hats, scarves, and gloves serve both functional and aesthetic purposes. Not only will they help you stay warm in the winter wind and protect you from getting snow all over yourself, but they can bring any outfit from boring to stylish. Try to find winter accessories that complement your coat and outfits. Consider the colors and patterns you usually wear and find winter accessories consistent with your unique style.

Be wise with your footwear

There are so many styles of boots, sneakers, and shoes available every winter that the options may seem overwhelming. While it may be tempting to buy whatever looks most fashionable or the coziest, think about which options would be most appropriate for your daily life. For example, you might love a pair of platform boots with a four-inch heel, but would that be practical if you pick up your kids from school every day and help keep them from slipping on the ice? Or you may want to buy a pair of comfy sneakers, but would they be realistic to wear to an office job? When choosing your winter footwear, be sure to think about which choices would have the best mix of style and comfort for your lifestyle.

Have some sweaters in your closet

Sweaters and ponchos are a winter wardrobe staple because they are cozy, and the style options are endless. They come in every color and print you can think of and range from cropped to super long. There is something for everyone when it comes to sweaters, whether your style is glamorous or minimalist.

You can never go wrong with neutrals

While it is fun to add a pop of color to your outfit, neutrals are great for the winter. They match every accessory in your closet and look sophisticated and appropriate for wherever you may be going. Black, white, gray, and beige always photograph well so that neutrals will look perfect for your family holiday pictures.
