With the season having already chilled over, its past time to unpack that winter coat and break out the boots. There are roughly 6 style essential pieces that you need this season. Let me tell you, the style for the 2021-22 winter season is all about effortlessness and texture. Materials like denim, leather, and everything in between that help create contrast while still keeping things effortless. Effortlessness is after all a major component of style. You don’t want to look like you’re trying too hard. The main idea here that I want you to hold on to is that having well textured pieces is a good way to create a simple but effective look, especially if you’re pressed for time.
True style should never be a complicated thing.
Slouchy Style
A little slouch goes a long way. Chicly belted, wrap-style overcoats are stylishly effortless and make the perfect piece to help you bundle up this season. (Pictures are in order from left to right).

Denim Button-down Top
Because why not a denim top. Denim is one of the most versatile and functional materials out and they pair well with the color-scheme of the winter season. Incorporating a denim top is a good way to add texture to your look.

The Chunky Heeled Boot
The chunky heel is among the top trending things in fashion and are the perfect style addition to your wardrobe. Towering heels with a slight platform are the perfect style addition to any look. Combine this is draping (coats/shawls) for an extra stylish and dramatic look. (pictures in order from left to right)

Textiles with Texture
If you haven’t figured it out by now, understand this-less is more. You don’t have to necessarily do a lot or even have a lot to demonstrate great style. This isn’t to suggest that you shouldn’t have the right pieces, but a disclaimer to those of you that feel you have to break the bank to look put-together. Style is about using what you have to create a specific look. I like quilted leather in general because it’s a great way to play with texture. Whether it’s incorporated into you look through an accessory, top or jacket, textured materials make a difference in your personal style and wardrobe.
