baby it’s cold outside…

and it’s getting colder… (10 points to whoever can name that song!) so for the past couple of months, i’ve been collecting inspiration pictures of winter outfits on the calivintage tumblr. last night i came across a new street style blog that i hadn’t seen before (styleclicker) and found the holy grail of winter outfits, so i decided to finally do a little post. i don’t know that it will ever get as terribly cold here as it does in places like stockholm or copenhagen or even new york, but i think i’ll still take a few tips from these outfits. anyway. when dressing for winter, it’s all about color and proportion. taking simple items like coats, scarves, tights, maybe a bit of fur, and turning it into something chic!

  3. Inspiration at it's best. I love the cape, but I'm need of warmer clothes. Winter has struck hard. I love the layering of the socks.

  4. Your tumblr post about styleclicker with that cute girl & cape was so good, I spent a bunch of time looking through the site and saving my faves! I'll have to post them too, there's some great stuff on there.

  5. What lovely inspirations! I am so psyched about coat weather. It's so much fun playing with different looks and proportions. Thanks for sharing these! :)

  6. I love the cape in the first picture! I've got to find one of those. It is already FREEZING in Chicago and I need to start getting creative in my search for warmth!

  7. I love all of these looks! These girls really know how to integrate their winter coats into their outfits and make them look chic.
