Stylish reasons to love winter
La Canadienne
Lacy number
Who says all your winter boots have to be flat and practical? These Canadian-made suede lace-ups are perfect for traipsing around the city.
Kimber boots, $345. Available at La Canadienne.
Feature fur
This boho-inspired vest is the perfect way to keep warm this season. Wear it for daytime with a turtleneck for a ski bunny look and glam it up at night with a pair of skinny jeans and a slouchy tee.
Faux fur vest, $99.90. Available at Jacob.
Snood story
Don’t mess around with an unruly scarf — bundle up in a faux fur snood that will protect your neck and face. Plus it adds a luxurious touch to the neckline of your basic sweaters and jackets.
Snood, $35.50. Available at Shopesprit.ca.
Camel comeback
Skip basic black this year and opt for a camel coat. This shade is a classic and it’s back with gusto this season. Opt for a warm high-necked number that will take you from work to a formal dinner with ease.
Wilfred cashmere cocoon coat, $325. Available at Aritzia.
Like a glove
Protect chapped hands from the harsh winds with a leather driving glove. Look for a pair in a neutral that will work with all your winter outwear. Bonus: Find one with luxe details like a gold buckle.
MICHAEL Michael Kors roller buckle leather gloves, $125. Available at Michael Kors.
Pretty little head
Just because hats are a necessity doesn’t mean you need to break out the old school pom pom toque to keep your ears warm. Try vintage-inspired headwear with a bit of bedazzling.
Crisp gleam beanie, $58. Available at Anthropologie.com.
Leg warmers
Keep your gams nice and toasty in a pair of thick leggings. Layer them underneath an oversize tee or sweater and a pair of fuzzy boots.
Leggings from Joe Fresh, $24. Available at Joe Fresh Style.
No sweat
A cable-knit sweater is a cold weather must-have. Look for unique textures, chunky knits and draping to encompass the latest runway trends. Plus, this is a layering piece you’ll keep for years.
Open placket cable shrug sweater, Banana Republic collection, $134.
Dress up
Mix up your wardrobe with a patterned sweater dress. It’s the perfect go-to for easy weekend wear but you can also take it to the office with the right footwear.
Jacquard tunic sweater, $42.90. Available at Dynamite.
