Layering for Cold Weather: 7 Cosy Yet Cute Outfit Ideas

As much as the idea of venturing outdoors fills us with a certain kind of dread in the peak of winter, sometimes needs must.

(…Even when all we really want to do is stay where the sofa, hot drinks and blankets are. Right?)

Whether it’s a romantic wander around the park or an obligatory trip to the supermarket, dressing for minus two degrees doesn’t need to be as icy as your feelings towards breaking away from self-imposed hibernation. 

Likewise, if you have a skiing holiday lined up or are heading away to a cold country, it is possible to showcase the full scope of your capsule wardrobe while tackling those unpredictable new climates.

How? Well, by layering your clothes, of course.

Although the prospect of layering for cold weather may initially sound like a chore, the good news is, you can do it in a way that is creative and stylish. It just requires a bit of careful consideration, depending on the occasion.

Layering for Cold Weather - 7 Cute Yet Cosy Outfits

1. For the Office

First things first, when dressing for the chillier months, who best to take inspiration from than the queen of winter ‘fits herself: Taylor Swift? Known for that scarf and her array of cosy long-line formal coats, taking a leaf out of Taylor’s book is a great way to keep warm and look cool over the Autumn/Winter season. 

For workdays in subzero temperatures, team your snug woolly accessory with a classic button-up shirt, similarly Taylor-esque cardigan, pleated skirt and heeled boots.

Oh, and don’t forget your tights in a heavier denier to keep your legs feeling extra toasty!

2. For Family Dinners

The ultimate family dinner to dancefloor combination? Step forward, the humble yet classic party dress, jumper and tights trio. 

This look cleverly conveys the fashion personality of each of its wearers, making it ideal for navigating the various social events that crop up around this time of year. Keep it traditional with a plush velvet dress under a cowl-neck jumper and over fair isle tights, getting the most out of your January sales purchases.

You can always swap your flats for stilettos and add to your makeup with winged liner and a bold lip as per AW21 beauty trends. Then — voilà — you’re ready to go OUT out after dinner.

3. For a Winter Walk or Sledding

There’s nothing more fun than grabbing a sledge and hot-footing it down to the nearest hill during snow days. To make sure you don’t freeze up and pay attention to layering for cold weather, throw on a midi-length coat over an on-trend, oversized hoodie.

In fact, being comfortably prepared for the great outdoors is super important. With this in mind, we’d suggest teaming this combo with a long-sleeved thermal top or t-shirt, thick joggers or sports leggings and faux-fur lined boots or wellies.

Bonus points for adding a beanie hat, scarf and gloves to keep the chill at bay for hours of play.

4. Lazy Weekends

For those delightfully lazy weekends where there’s nothing on your to-do list but to finish a good book and squeeze in a cheeky nap, chunky knitted cardigans are the only way to go. 

Paired with your favourite jeans, oversized joggers or knitted lounge trews and a slouchy t-shirt, this look can be levelled-up for any last-minute outdoor plans by adding some midi-heel suede boots. 

(Finding it difficult to switch off when you finally do get that hallowed bit of downtime? We don’t blame you given all the underlying uncertainty we’ve dealt with over the past couple of years. In this case, we’ve put together a guide on ways to unwind — you can thank us later!)

5. A Job Interview

As we move into “The Big Chill” post-Christmas, it’s good to be prepped for any life-changing opportunities that may be on the horizon.

For a unique way to marry both professionalism and warmth, try an oversized plaid blazer with a boxy blouse and trusty cigarette trousers for your next meeting. Then throw on a charming wool peacoat over the top for travelling there and back in style.

Keep jewellery to a minimum if you tend to wear a number of pieces, or sport one bold item to leave a memorable impact. Subtle small hoops and thin gold necklaces are a great combination for everyday interview attire.

6. For Bottomless Brunch

If you’re getting a tad bored of beige, beige and a side of beige, this twist on layering for cold weather may be for you. Simply team similar shades of the same colour palette in thick, block-coloured fabrics for an elevated aesthetic that’s effortlessly on-trend.

The truth is, you just can’t beat a blazer and jumper combo with high-waisted jeans for bottomless brunch with the girls or date night. Throw on an oversized scarf for those days when two layers just isn’t enough and add heeled boots to polish off your well-put-together winter ensemble.

7. Skiing

For those lucky enough to escape the country over the winter months, skiing is a common holiday pastime. And spoiler alert: those freezing cold temperatures are no joke.

We recommend keeping things bold and bright on the slopes, namely to be seen by other skiers for safety, but also to help you stay visible to your friend/family group. 

The first suggestion when skiing will always be a trusty all-in-one item, which is perfect for hiding a sneaky thermal piece or two underneath. Then finish off your “slope chic” aesthetic with some chunky socks and ski goggles to keep your eyes on the prize (and that mascara from running).

Layering for Cold Weather and Locking Down These Winter Outfits

Whatever the occasion, there’s something to keep you looking and feeling cosy yet on-point when it comes layering for cold weather this season. Jump out of your comfort zone with multiple layers, or keep it as classic as your nana’s Sunday roast dinner with a lower number of layers that are higher in thickness (and quality!).

Either way, don’t be afraid of throwing pieces together that you wouldn’t normally and mixing and matching the latest fashion trends for a fresh take on cold-weather style.

Barbie Girl 👱🏻‍♀️💄 A tailored bla Barbie Girl 👱🏻‍♀️💄 
A tailored blazer and shorts co-ord is one of my fave summer outfits for smart-casual occasions like drinks with the girls, date night or a fancy dinner.
(I wore this hot pink one recently for a bottomless brunch in York! ⬆️🥂)
I’m loving bright colours at the moment (can’t beat a bit of dopamine dressing) so chose to team this suit set with a white lace-trim cami and a white shoulder bag for that fresh, summery look.
I then opted for gold jewellery and block-heeled sandals to add warmth and a touch of glamour to the ensemble. ☀️💅🏼
Are you a fan of summer suit sets?

Can’t beat a bit of dopamine dressing. 🌈 You Can’t beat a bit of dopamine dressing. 🌈
You may have heard other bloggers and influencers talking about dopamine dressing and how it’s a big trend for 2022 - but what exactly is it? 🤔
Simply put, dopamine dressing is all about choosing outfits with bold patterns and bright colours that will give you a rush of dopamine and therefore improve your mood.
After all, dopamine is the feel-good neurotransmitter that helps us feel pleasure as part of the brain’s reward system. 💰
By dressing happier, studies show that we will feel happier. (And who couldn’t use a happiness boost every now and again, right?) 🤗 
So, how can you dress happier? I’ll say it again… rainbow outfits and loud-and-proud patterns.
Case in point: these three examples. ➡️
Which is your favourite - 1, 2 or 3?

Get glowing skin today!🤩 [Ad] When the @dkglo Get glowing skin today!🤩
[Ad]
When the @dkglowycosmetics range landed on my doorstep, I wasn’t convinced it was going to work for me.
Nothing else had.
I’ve had sensitive skin ever since I was a teen struggling with acne. Being on antibiotics for two years eliminated one problem (the spots) but caused another.
It had messed with the balance of the natural oils in my skin, resulting in redness and dryness that didn’t ever go away.
Until now.
Let me walk you through the products that have been a game-changer for my skin.👉🏻
1. Gentle Cleansing Foam
This cleanser cleans the skin without disrupting its natural pH balance. It features:
* Rose water to soothe
* Camomile to soften
* Calendula to neutralise free radical damage (linked to ageing)
The formula is super fluffy and smells divine.😍
2. Balancing Toner
This toner contains:
* Calming rose water
* Moisturising hyaluronic acid
* Replenishing cloudberry
I use it once a week and my skin feels refreshed and looks radiant afterwards.
3. Skin Protecting Moisturizing Cream
This moisturiser contains ingredients that work together to strengthen the skin’s natural defences for a younger, healthier complexion, such as: 
* Ceramides
* Vitamin C
* Hyaluronic acid
I love how my skin becomes smooth and hydrated after use.
4. Skin Protecting Anti-Pollution Serum
This concentrated antioxidant gel protects the skin from environmental pollutants.
It contains alchemilla extract to help prevent premature ageing.
My skin used to look dull and tired. Now when I mix the moisturiser and serum, it looks bright and youthful (without feeling greasy).
5. Skin-Reviving Night Cream
This product smells so good! It contains antioxidants and collagen-boosting ingredients like:
* Hyaluronic acid
* Sea buckthorn
* Alteromonas ferment extract
Since using this cream, I’ve noticed a big difference in my skin’s hydration levels and plumpness. It gives me the much-desired glow that DK_GLOWY is known for!
I honestly can’t recommend these products enough for any skin type - all the ingredients are organic and sustainably sourced.🌊

Travel is the only thing you buy that makes you ri Travel is the only thing you buy that makes you richer. 💰
Money and material possessions don’t equal wealth in my eyes.
Sure, travel can be a big strain on your finances, but it provides you with so many invaluable things in abundance. 🤩
In a nutshell, travel:
- Enriches your experience of life and the world
- Allows you to learn something new about yourself from every unique adventure
- Educates you and gives you knowledge and life skills that you can’t get from books or school
- Allows you to meet people of different nationalities and cultures and share experiences
- Gives you priceless memories, friendships and relationships
(I mean, I ultimately got my husband out of one of my international trips!)
Just remember that you can always make money. You can’t always make memories.
And that’s just my two pence this #traveltuesday. ✌🏻

It’s tough having sensitive skin, but it’s even tougher trying to find products you can incorporate into your everyday skincare routine that won’t aggravate it. 🙄
As a teen, I struggled with acne. As an adult, I’ve struggled with dryness and redness. ❌
I’m thankful I’ve found @dkglowycosmetics, an organic skincare line with COSMOS-approved ingredients that have been sustainably sourced from land and sea. 🌊
This range has honestly revolutionised my skincare routine. 🙌🏻
In three short months, the texture and appearance of my skin has improved. It feels smoother and firmer with more elasticity. 
It also looks less red, clearer and more hydrated, meaning that most days I’m happy to go makeup-free (unlike before my DK_GLOWY glow!). 🫣
Here are the products I apply every day.
MORNING:
1. Gentle Cleansing Foam (1-2 pumps)
2. Balancing Toner (five-pence piece)
3. Skin Protecting Moisturizing Cream (1-2 pumps) mixed with
4. Skin Protecting Anti-Pollution Serum (2-3 drops)
EVENING:
1. Gentle Cleansing Foam (1-2 pumps)
2. Skin-Reviving Night Cream (1-2 pumps)
