4 Ways to Dress Warmer, Not Wider!!
My lovely & stylin’ WTD readers! This week I’ve been inspired by Refinery 29 and I have lots to share so let’s begin with Winter fashion. Now you may wonder how you can avoid those bulky jackets yet stay warm, comfortable, and fabulous… Wonder no more, here’s how:
1. Start with the Ribbed goods! They’re warm, comfortable, and fun to play with. Try patterns and bold colors. The fabric acts by trapping pockets of heat in your clothes while lengthening the lines of your limbs. Wear it under and over. Use it as a layering tool or simply rock it with a dress. Get your sweaters, skirts, leggings, or socks. The options are as vast as the fashion guru inside you!
2. Let the fur in you roar!! Some of the warmest fabrics are shearling, velour, velvet, or fuzz and a thin layer can go a long way. Don’t miss out on what will provide an extra layer of protection against the cold.

3. The royals swore by it and so do we! Ladies, pack up on your silk because it’s perfect for any occasion and any season. That’s right!! Silk is one of the warmest fabrics yet feels cool to the skin in the summertime. Start swapping that cotton undershirt for silk, try layering under or over, dare to style, and insulate!
4. Do as Beyonce and place that Love on Top! Our bodies lose heat evenly throughout but it’s most felt in our torsos. So keep the top bundled and go slimmer below.
