Ageless Wardrobe Updates
 


Not even a month into winter and already buried in snow, robbed of sunlight, and facing more long months of cold and dark.

Even Flashionistas living in balmy climates are forced to bury their style under layers to stay warm this year. We found some incentives to get you through to spring, whether you're slogging through slush or freezing in the tropics.

Wool Leggings
We asked Sherrie Mathieson, style consultant and author of Steal This Style, for one item she couldn't get through the winter without. Her answer: "Wool leggings with over-the-knee suede boots and an anorak or long sweater is my staple look."

Wolford Wool Leggings at Newman Marcus, $60.
UES Suede Boot in Washed Black from Zappos, $275.
