Winter is the perfect time to experiment with texture and layers. Mixing and matching different fabrics and textures can add depth and interest to your outfits. In this blog post, I’ll share some tips on how to wear texture in winter and create unique and stylish looks.

  1. Start with a Base Layer: A good base layer is essential in winter. Choose a thin knit sweater or a long-sleeved shirt in a neutral color like black, white, or gray. This will serve as the foundation for your texture-mixing outfit.
  2. Add a Textured Jacket or Coat: Next, add a jacket or coat that has texture. This could be a tweed blazer, a fur coat, a leather jacket, or a parka with a quilted texture. Choose a jacket or coat that complements your base layer and adds visual interest to your outfit.
  3. Play with Fabrics: Don’t be afraid to mix different fabrics in your outfit. For example, you could pair a silk blouse with a wool cardigan or a denim jacket with a velvet skirt. The key is to find combinations that work well together and create a cohesive look.
  4. Layer Up: Layering is key in winter texture. You can add a scarf, blanket scarf, or poncho to your outfit for an extra layer of warmth and texture. Experiment with different weights and textures of fabrics to create a dimensional look.
  5. Accessorize with Texture: Accessories can also add texture to your outfit. Consider adding a fur hat, a knitted beanie, or a pair of textured gloves. You could also wear a statement necklace or bracelet made of beads, stones, or metal.
  6. Embrace the Mismatch: The beauty of texture is in the mismatch. Don’t be afraid to pair different textures and patterns together. For example, you could wear a plaid skirt with a cable-knit sweater or a sequin top with a leather jacket.
  7. Neutral Colors: When it comes to texture, neutral colors like black, white, gray, and beige are a great starting point. These colors allow the texture to stand out and create a cohesive look. You can add pops of color with accessories or a bold lipstick.

In conclusion, wearing texture in winter is all about having fun and experimenting with different fabrics and patterns. Don’t be afraid to mix and match to create unique and stylish looks. Remember to start with a base layer, add texture with jackets and coats, play with fabrics, layer up, accessorize with texture, embrace the mismatch, and keep it neutral. With these tips, you’ll be able to create texture-rich outfits that are both warm and fashionable. Embrace the cozy and chic side of winter fashion!
