Colours:
Jewel and earthy tones are classic winter colours, among this year's favourites: red, burgundy, navy, chocolate, charcoal, black, emerald, and creme. Be sure to apply these to all of the style tips listed below.
Turtlenecks:
Yup. I used to hate wearing these in elementary school, but this year they are a huge trend, and are actually super cute when paired right. This year, cropped turtlenecks, knit wooden turtlenecks, and a-line turtlenecks are in. They can be worn underneath a longer sweater or wraps, or as a stand-alone piece with a statement necklace.
