When the temperature starts to drop, stepping outside in style requires more than just a great coat and a warm face mask. In order to be prepared, you’ll need a few additional winter accessories for a fashionable jaunt in the cold. Luckily there are plenty of chic little garments to keep you cozy from head to toe, like cashmere gloves fit for a minimalist or chunky ribbed-knit snoods for the more adventurous layerer. There are also joyful scarves from Ganni, which definitely have the power to bring new life to drab, all-black outerwear and would make heading out into a blizzard or shoveling snow in the driveway way less miserable. Plus there are some totally classic iterations in neutrals from Cuyana and Loewe. Or if you prefer to bundle up without the bulk, a dickey, like one from & Other Stories, is a smart alternative to the classic winter scarf. Meanwhile, Everlane’s hooded neck warmer is the perfect addition to a classic wool coat or puffer jacket and won’t totally mess up your hair as a beret might. And to top it off, you might consider a snow-ready furry bucket hat from Clyde or Vince’s classic ribbed beanie.
Below, a winter accessories checklist for finishing off your cold weather–ready attire.
Hand Warmers
Say so long to stuffing your hands in your jacket pockets for warmth. Whether you choose classic leather driving gloves or a pair of shearling mittens, keeping your extremities covered has never looked so good.
Classic Scarves
You can’t go wrong with a versatile winter scarf. Take your pick between a cheery statement wrap from Ganni or a fabulous fringed mohair number from Loewe.
Winter Toppers
Finding a reason to leave the house and spend more time outside this winter is easy when you can choose between a variety of covetable hats. To wit, try keeping your head warm in a fine faux fur chapeau from Emma Brewin or a trapper style from Kule.
But Wait, There’s More…
If you have the classic winter accessories covered, consider one of these less traditional styles that are still extremely practical. Slip on a dickey, which provides an extra layer without adding sleeves, or keep exposed ears warm with a fuzzy après-ski–inspired headband.
