Accessories For Your Winter Travels
Thinking of a thrilling winter vacation, you may already have noted the long list of complex winter layering clothes to be packed along. This is especially true if you are on a journey to a somewhat snowy location, for professional or a recreational visit.
So, if you are strolling on the streets of Paris in those cold months of the year or have taken up a vacation in the Swiss Alps, protecting yourself from the low temperatures will be on top of your priority list. But who says you can’t enjoy the chilly atmosphere and appear stylish at the same time.
With your usual winter apparel, there are some accessories that you ought to carry to look chic. If these accessories are coordinated with your winter-wear correctly, you can achieve a perfect winter look.
Caps: Keep It Funky
Winter is the time to bring out your beanies or trappers. This form of headwear is practical, staying true to the theme of ‘Function over Design’ in your daily routine. But why stop there?
Besides keeping your head warm, winter caps can offer a versatility not matched by any other accessory. The subtle variations within the colour schemes should match with the overall attire, which may or may not be derivative of your primary colour.
For example, a wool knitted cap will provide the required insulation and with a dull tone, should be great with a coloured coat. In contrast, a colourful woollen beanie could enhance the look of a rather dreary coloured jacket.
Gloves: Ensure a Subdued Presence
The basic idea behind coordinating your gloves with the reminder of your getup is not to overdo it. Similar to any winter cap, there are two classic scenarios here.
The rather subtle and muted coloured gloves are used to only serve as a mere accessory on an already colourful outfit. On the flip side is the use of a monochrome outfit ( for example, a black or grey trench coat ), thus to be properly coordinated with a pair of gloves that should impart a hint of colour on the overall appearance.
Scarf: Make It Stand Out
Scarves would be the defining feature of your overall winter attire and applying the correct combination with it thus becomes essential. A scarf should not only complement your bodily features and complexion, but also its design and style of wearing rely on the winter outfit.
Neutral colours, such as black, brown and grey are rather universal and most of the time goes very well with anything. When buying a colourful design, however, you need to see if any of the colours in the design corresponds to your favourite clothes.
Shawls: Appreciate the Elegance
Some of the basic principles behind selecting a scarf also apply in the case of shawls. However when buying a shawl, many do suggest getting a lighter version of a colour pallet missing from your current wardrobe.
As a shawl occupies much larger space on your body compared to a scarf, coordination with other accessories becomes inevitable. This is especially true in case of designer shawls, where the central design should appear in front or on your back, with colours complementing the outer layers of your outfit.
Other Accessories: The Supporting Cast
Your selection with types of socks and earmuffs should rely on the common notion that they should complement your clothes and not attract too much attention to themselves. Classical designs should do just fine which with subdued colours should create a background layer on which the primary features of your attire could stand out.
