With winter just around the corner, it’s the perfect time to take a look through your wardrobe and plan your outfits for the colder months. While many of us may miss the flexibility of warmer weather fashion, there are some ways to spruce up your winter wardrobe — it’s all about the shoes and accessories!
Don’t feel as if you have to dress drab to match the gray clouds outside. Here are some of the best luxury shoes and accessories trends for this winter.

Bring on The Boots
One of the best things about winter is that we get to dust off our boots! Sure, there’s nothing wrong with rocking an ankle boot over summer, but winter is the time for these shoes really get to shine.

Gucci leather ankle boot, £805.00

Designers have already released some stunning shoe collections for the Fall/Winter 2019 season, and we’re totally in love. Prada has always been one of the most impressive on the runway, with a mix of chunky heeled ankle boots and platform heeled knee-highs. You certainly can’t go wrong with an eye-catching pair of boots this winter.
Bag It Up
Last year, we couldn’t get enough of all the stunning handbags hitting the stores in time for winter — and this year is no different! We tend to carry around a lot less stuff during the colder months, so it means you can get away with slightly smaller bags.
No more bucket bags required to fit your shades and sunscreen, it’s all about the clutch this season. Find yourself the perfect handbag that can be used both in the office and for the office party. Opt for a couple of purses in neutral colors so that you can mix and match them with practically any outfit.

Wrap Up Warmly
Fashion lovers know that layering is the key to a successful winter outfit, but we’re not just talking about tees and sweaters. To truly wrap up warm and look stylish, look for accessories that will help take your outfit to the next level. Whether this is a beautiful camel coat that can be worn day or night or even a pastel-colored scarf that will bring warmer tones to a winter’s day, there are plenty of ways to layer with style. Look for some key pieces that are timeless, so that you don’t have to fork out for a brand new coat every single winter.

Add Some Sparkle
As you well know, winter can feel a bit drab and dreary at the best of times. This means it’s the perfect time of year to add a bit of sparkle to your outfits! Plus, with the holidays coming up, there’s no better excuse to bring on the bling. Look for statement jewelry that can be used to add a little something extra to your outfit. You’ll also want to add some more delicate pieces to your collection, that you can get away with wearing to the office on a daily basis. Sure, the clouds may be gray and gloomy outside, but that doesn’t mean you can’t shine bright like a diamond!
