Although we experience a hotter alternative to the West’s colder and darker winter it doesn’t mean we have to forgo all winter great pleasures, especially if you are travelling to the colder climates in the next few months. With a few alterations, it’s easy to incorporate a high neck polo into your everyday wardrobe without boiling up inside and earning yourself instant style kudos.
Plaid
The print which is perfectly timed for the winter months, the plaid comes in every style and shape. Warm hues of cranberry and holly green are brought together alongside midnight blues to create a classic plaid print which is worth noting as a key style for the future months ahead.
Denim
Double denim, single denim or just a denim patch, blue, black, bleached or dyed, make it your go to material for layering perfection. Due to its lack of warmth it’s perfect for the hotter climates, especially when worn with a boyfriend tee and pair of brogues.

Faux Fur
It was a major focus on the catwalks of the AW15 shows and for good reasons, from fur cuffs and collars to full on fur gilets and coats, anything goes in the warm and fuzzy stakes this season — Especially when heading somewhere a little chiller. If perhaps you’re not one for full on fur then try a furry accessory or shoe!
Hats
A beautiful wide-brimmed or fedora hat brings a hint of fanciful elegance to any winter ensemble whilst a cosy knitted beanie is guaranteed to keep you nice a toasty. Go for tones of auburn, copper or rust when choosing your trophy hat of the season.

Turtleneck
The chic way of dressing when winter comes around / dressing when spending the day in an air-coned office! The turtleneck is one of life’s greatest pleasures which can easily be worn with a cute mini leather and ballet pumps allowing you to beat the elements in style this season.
Mini bags
Cute, compact and available in pretty much every colour possible this season the mini bag is a must-have, need-now item. Ok, so it won’t keep you warm but it does look super cute, besides, all you really need is your credit card, phone and lipstick, right?

Boots
The saviour to any wardrobe, without them your outfit really won’t ever be at its pinnacle. Whether they’re over the knee knock-outs or fringed ankle boots, you need to get yourselves a pair. Wear with a pair of denim cut offs and oversized boyfriend shirt for simple style.
