To stay warm and stylish in the Hills this winter, here are some tips and tricks:

1. Layering is key: opt for versatile pieces that can be layered to adapt to changing temperatures. Start with a lightweight base layer such as a tee or shirt and jeans or your favorite dress, add a cozy knit or cardigan and top it off with comfy

yet stylish boots or sneakers.

2. Splurge on a statement knit: with statement knits and cardigans being front and centre for trends this season, you can safely splurge on a few to update your wardrobe. Paired with your staple jeans and basics, they’re easy enough to work into your current wardrobe while adding interest and detail.

3. Accessorise, accessorise, accessorise: elevate your winter look with accessories like scarves and hats. A chunky yet soft scarf or a woollen hat not only add warmth, but also serve as important pieces that tie your outfit together and show your unique style.

4. Embrace boots of all types: boots are a winter staple in the Hills, providing both style and protection from the elements. Opt for knee-high boots for a polished look or ankle boots for a more casual vibe. A massive trend is the cowboy boot! Coming in a variety of colors and styles, there is sure to be a style to suit you!

5. Mix textures and fabrics: experiment with different textures and fabrics to add depth and interest to your winter outfits. Pair a chunky knit sweater with floaty dresses or mix a denim jacket over a matching set.
