What's hot
Keep warm with style
Some winter accessories go beyond the realms of fashion and stand as an essential item. If you’ve ever slipped on a warm pair of gloves on an icy cold morning, you’ll know exactly what we mean. Of course, we still want to look stylish whilst battling the cold, so check out these practical-yet-trendy pieces.
Just in case
If the glum weather’s starting to get you down - take a holiday. Places like Cyprus and Tenerife offer year-round sunshine for those that need a break from the rain. Before you go, however, you’re going to need a stylish and sturdy suitcase. The airport carousel’s jam-packed with standard black canvas bags, so make sure yours stands out from the crowd.
Belt up
Remember when men’s belts came in one style – black or brown leather? Now, they come in all manner of sizes, styles and colours. And this season, Firetrap has released a new range with a punky Vivienne Westwood-inspired look. They’re covered with buckles, chains and studs, which are a refreshing change to an otherwise plain selection.
To the point
A couple of years ago, square-toed shoes were the style to rock. But for the past few seasons, it’s the pointed style that’s become a firm favourite with fashionistas. Coupled with their skinny-jeaned partner in crime, they’ve been all over the High Street for some time. And as we move into a new season, they’re still as popular as ever.
Labour of glove
On a bitterly cold morning, you can’t beat slipping frozen hands into a warm pair of gloves. So it’s worth splashing out on a decent pair that’ll last ‘til spring. For the ultimate in luxury and comfort, pick up a pair of these woolen beauties. Not only are they comfortable, but they’re the height of seasonal style, too.
Trap a trilby
The ever-trendy trilby’s a hat for all seasons. It won’t keep you warm during winter, but it’ll look stylish whatever the weather. It’s been seen on the heads of a million celebrities, from Pete Doherty and Sienna Miller to Justin Timberlake and Andre 3000. So dare to be different – throw out the comfy beanie and invest in some true seasonal style.
Macho man bag
These days, men carry bags nearly as much as women. Whether it’s a designer backpack or trendy record bag, they’re now chosen as carefully as a pair of shoes. However, if you want to avoid the term ‘man bag’, you’ll need something suitably masculine. And this leather satchel fits the bill perfectly.
Comfort or fashion?
There are two kinds of scarf-wearer – one goes for warmth, one goes for style. Practical types wrap chunky knitwear around their neck like a python, ready to battle the winter chill. The fashion conscious, however, don’t care about thickness of material. They want designer labels and the latest styles. The question is – which one are you?
Trapper style
The trapper hat's one of winter’s must have accessories – but you’ll either love it or hate it. Some adore its brash American style, others think it looks plain ridiculous. Whichever way you lean, it’s definitely a bold look to pull off. However, when it comes to keeping warm, it’s head and shoulders above the rest.
