2017 Winter Fashion Trends and Styling Ideas
We know, waking up on a freezing December morning to go to school or work is not the most ideal moment for fashion experimenting, but who says you can’t stay fashionable during the colder weather as well? 2017 fall and winter fashion trends are just as perfect and exciting in the fashion world as the summer and spring season – with different knitted styles, rich, deep colors and unique embroidery, you are guaranteed to find the perfect matches for your personal style. In our new blog post, we are going to share all our favorite styling tips for winter, from rocking oversized sweater dresses to layering.
Oversized Sweaters
They might look boring at first, but with the endless different styles, you can create any type of outfit you can dream of, while keeping you warm and cozy. There are various different options you can choose from: an off-shoulder design with a pretty lace bralette underneath it, a twisted back cut-out with a belt to accentuate your waist, or a lengthened style that will match a warm pair of leggings and boots.
For casual occasions: Make it comfy and cute with your favorite pair of jeans, chunky heeled boots and a messy bun. Wear it with a parka coat or sturdy leather jacket, and an adorable pom-pom hat.
For special occasions: It might seem tricky to style a big sweater for special occasions or for a Friday night out with your girl friends, but if you rock it with a pair of lace up, high heeled suede boots, a bold lipstick and faux leather leggings.

Chunky Knit Cardigans
Chunky knit cardigans are just perfect for layering and creating interesting, beautiful fall and winter outfits. Their opened, usually longer style allows you to wear basically anything underneath them, such as lace blouses, silk tops or even dresses. You can also add other layers, such as a bralette and a mesh or satin blouse to make your look more unique. Chunky knit cardigans also look great with vintage denim jackets or longer, more elegant coats.
For casual occasions: Pair your chunky knit cardigan with a striped shirt and a pair of black jeans or dungarees if you’d like to go extra comfortable.
For special occasions: Wear it with a leather jacket or a slim fitted jumpsuit and killer heels to vamp up your cosy cardigan. You can also add a dramatic makeup look, such as bold lips or smokey eyes.

Faux Fur Jackets
One of our favorites from the 2017 winter fashion trends is faux fur, especially in the form of faux fur jackets. There is something so mysterious and beautiful about these jackets, and they can be mixed with everything. We recommend pairing faux fur with minimalist pieces and neutral colors such as white, black, grey and beige, to keep the focus on the fur.
For casual occasions: For university or a busy Tuesday morning, rock your faux fur jacket with chunky heeled boots, skinny jeans and a flowy blouse or warm sweater.
For special occasions: Fur and leather is a match made in heaven, so why not pair your jacket with high waisted, leather pants for a Friday night out? Don’t forget a statement necklace or pair of earrings!

Knit dresses are the fall and winter version of little black dresses with a casual, cool flare. You can get them in mini or midi lengths and various colors and designs, our favorites for this year are the midi cold shoulder knit dresses and the turtleneck knit dresses, which are ideal for layering as well.
For casual occasions: For work or university days, wear your knit dress with flat boots, a crossbody bag and an oversized coat to keep you warm
