Five Winter Fashion Essentials
Get back to beautiful with these stylish must-haves
Sure, it's a busy time of year, with holiday parties, family dinners and the kids’ year-end recitals. Why not reward yourself with some great fashions and accessories? Go ahead and make looking beautiful a priority this season — you deserve it!
Go With Neutral Colors
Gray is the new black. “You can pair it with anything, and it works well with all skin tones,” says style expert Niria Portella. Choose a versatile piece like a cardigan or vest, says Portella, “then throw it over a black dress or a blouse and slacks — you can renew any basic look.”
Pop On A Pencil Skirt
A straight-cut skirt that hits just below the knee is a must-have. Try a neutral color like black and pair the skirt with a button-down blouse or fitted turtleneck, Portella suggests. “You can wear the combination to the office or at night by adding an eye-catching accessory, such as a gold necklace.”Belt It Out
A belt can add a fun and funky edge to your wardrobe. A wide, waist-cinching style in a bright color (like red) creates a pretty silhouette. Wear it with a skirt and blouse, jeans and a tee or a flowy A-line dress.Kick Up Your Boots
One pair of boots can go a long way. “You can wear them casually with jeans tucked in or with a dress to work,” Portella says. She suggests hip patent leather with flat heels and round toes.Bag It
An oversize leather purse will keep you stylish for many seasons to come. “It can fit your everyday essentials and your kids’ stuff too,” Portella says. For the latest look, stick with a style that’s slouchy and unstructured. Colors such as brown, navy and burgundy work well with everything.Rate this article:

I love oversized handbags. You can load so much in them and then free up your hands. The new animal print bags come in so many colors and styles. Look for one that has a shoulder strap and a shorter strap to hang over your arm.
