Layering…such a classic and practical styling choice for fall and winter- but why is it so hard to get right? The key to success when layering is to forget the idea that it has to be done perfectly. We believe that fashion and discovering your personal style should be fun, stress-free, and comfortable. Here are some of our favorite ways to incorporate layering into outfits for fall and winter.

Monochrome

Keeping to one color in your look is the best way to approach layering if you want to look extra chic. Monochromatic styling can look minimalistic and simple if you are sporting neutral colors, or it can look unique and eye-catching when wearing bright and vibrant colors.

STATEMENT SCARVES

Already cozied up with a sweater and jacket? A statement scarf will be the perfect additional layer for the extra cold days! Scarves are a great way to add a pop of color or a pattern to a neutral look. The Acne Studios Mohair Checked Scarves are some of the best statement scarves on the market, and here is a similar style from Free People. Here are some of our favorite inspo pics from Pinterest:

One of our favorite things about statement scarves like these is that they can challenge the typical fall and winter color palette. Our biggest advice to you is to wear what makes you happy and forget seasonal color rules. □
