Look alive West Coast locals, winter has arrived and it’s time to show off all your coats and cardigans; layer up with chic sweaters to stay warm during those chilly days. Spice up your collars and khakis with sweaters and cardigans to get that preppy look while staying warm in this frosty weather, Clarkies!

Who says you can’t rock a skirt or dress during winter while staying warm? Just add a pair of stockings or tights to any outfit to keep warm and look awesome while hanging out with friends. Add more to your look with a pair of knee highs and suede boots. If you want to be a little spontaneous, try some patterned tights to spice up the outfit.

With the holidays approaching you can’t forget about your “ugly Christmas sweaters.” Nothing brings more Christmas spirit than a cute seasonal, classic sweater. Go retro with classic sweaters and make your own. If you find time on your hands, make some for your friends and family; they make great gifts.

A dark green parka is the perfect staple piece for the winter, stylish and cozy. They go perfectly with almost everything you wear and you can accessorize by adding some beige knee high socks to keep warm and add even more tone to your outfit. Accessories are everything this season; scarves, hats and mittens are a must-have for this season. Always remember to stay fierce and walk tall in all your bold outfits.
