It’s winter! And that means it’s time to layer up. Vancouver’s frigid weather and recent snowstorm forced many to re-imagine their winter wardrobe and pack on extra layers.
The ONE question we are all asking this season is, how do we find outfits that look great, but also keep us warm?
Here are 5 tips to stay stylish on cold, winter days:
TIP #1 – Accessorize
The winter bite and stormy winds call for adding a scarf, matching hat, and gloves to your outfit. This should keep your neck and face cozy through those cold winter days. Along with keeping you warm, accessories are the perfect way to add some style to your outfit.

TIP #2 – Layer
Stay warm by layering in the winter months. Put the finishing touch on your winter outfit with a new wrap or poncho.
