5 Ways to Beat the Winter Wardrobe Blues

Record snowfall. Brutal temps. The same coat. Every. Single. Day.

If winter has you side-eyeing your closet (or seriously considering setting it on fire), you’re not alone. Before you declare style hibernation, we’ve got five simple, mood-boosting ways to refresh your wardrobe and revive your winter spirit.

Spring will come — but in the meantime, let’s make getting dressed feel good again!

#1 Pair Contrasting Colors
There is nothing like bold color to move the needle on your style (& mood!). Up the ante by pairing two strong colors together to bring an even bigger “wow” factor to your clothes & accessories.

#2 Brown is the New Black
Adding warm brown shades to your winter wardrobe is an easy way to lighten up while bringing an all-around modern vibe to your style. Black, gray, navy and white all work beautifully with shades of brown, including real (and faux!) brown leather and suede.

#3 Sheepish Accents
Whether real (shearling) or faux (sherpa) “sheepish” accents bring visual interest (and warmth!) to boots, vests, outerwear and an assortment of other accessories.

#4 Put a Collar on It!
Breathe new life into winter blazers, sweaters and vests with a fresh, white shirt. The collar literally “lifts” your look (especially on Zoom!) and can carry darker clothes into spring with gusto.

#5 Black & White with a Pop of Color
Finally, take a simple black and white wardrobe out of hibernation by adding a pop of color. Red, pink and yellow are the standard colors to incorporate. This year, try Kelly green, bright orange and cobalt blue for a new twist on this tried and true style trick.
