Looking for a few fresh items to add to your winter wardrobe? Try these 6 Winter Fashion Must Haves. They will brighten up even the coldest days.
How was your week? Mine was good but hectic. I have been trying to get ahead so I can focus on Thanksgiving next week. One of the things I am working on is tying up the loose ends on two big giveaways coming up in the next few weeks on Running in a Skirt. I’m very excited about them!
Today for Fashion Friday I'm talking about new wardrobe pieces I have added to my collection for winter. I believe in building a wardrobe with classic pieces, but I also enjoy buying a couple of trendy things each season. It makes me feel young 🙂 This winter I have already bought several must have pieces and I am loving getting to wear them.
6 Winter Fashion Must Haves
1- Printed Leggings &
2-Anything Aztec Print
I got these printed leggings at Target and I think they are so much fun. They are actually a thick sweater material and are super cozy. This sort of Aztec theme is all over the place right now. Anything in this style print will make your old pieces look very current.
3- Flannel Plaid Shirt
You know I am southern to the core and this plaid flannel shirt just screams Nashville to me. Plaid shirts are huge this season and I love them. It is the coziest way to look hip.
4- Cowboy Boots &
5-Layering Boot socks
Cowboy boots have been back for awhile, but they are more current than ever this season. To make the look even more NOW, layer boot socks with your leggings or skinny jeans. You can even do leg warmers, socks and boots to really pull off the layered leg look.
6- Ankle Boots
Ankle boots are the trendiest shoe out there right now. I bought an inexpensive pair to match with a dress and tights. The boots will let you get more wear out of what you already have in your closet.
Make sure to read my tips on how to pull off ankle boots first! It is a tricky style to do correctly.

Love the leggings ❤?.

I write a fashion column for a newspaper so I am always looking for fashionably trendy items to talk about. The printed leggings are a good idea. Unfortunately I don't think people in my area would think the flannel shirt is fashionable so I will have to pass on that, although I think it would be quite cozy to lounge around in on a chilly day!

Okay, so Jordan has an aversion to printed leggings like you've never seen. I think if I bought some, he would literally refuse to leave the house with me. Haha! You look great, though. I just think for the sake of my marriage, I'm better off leaving well enough alone 🙂
Andrea B (@goodgirlgonered) says
Those leggings are really cute! But I especially like those cowboy boots. I've always wanted a pair and never found the perfect ones. Maybe I have to start looking again soon ...!?!
Brittany says
I am on the hunt for cute printed leggings!!!!
Jessie says
Don't you just look adorable modeling these fashion must haves 🙂 I can't even begin to tell you how many pairs of Target's printed leggings I owe. They always have such a cute selection.
JulieWunder says
Cute leggings make winter kind of bearable. Kind off... Hope you got your Visa stuff figured out.
Felicia says
Yes on the plaid shirt! I could wear that every single day. I'm looking for the perfect mix of red, blue and green.
JulieWunder says
That would be so cute! Let me know if you find it.
Cailee says
Ahhh! So cute! Love the little booties! 🙂 So pretty!! I have a pair like that is suede tan! They're so practical, but still so dressy and fun! LOVE em!
JulieWunder says
Thanks Cailee! I am a big fan of them too!
Susie @ SuzLyfe says
I'm all about the plaid button downs. Always and fo-eva!
JulieWunder says
I can't believe I didn't have one before a few weeks ago. I'm going to have to get another one because I'm wearing it all the time!
Blane Sherer says
I really like the jeans and boots.
I'm in Charleston ths weekend supporting my
daughter in the Miss South Carolina pageant.
JulieWunder says
Awesome! I hope she does well!
kathyboggs says
I love all of these! My favorite is the plaid shirt and cowboy boots! I have been saying that I want some of those boots! I had some years ago and loved them. Happy Thanksgiving Julie!!
Nicole @ Fitful Focus says
LOVE those leggings!! Definitely need to get me some of those :). Thanks for joining in again. I love these posts from you!
JulieWunder says
Thanks so much Nicole!
Mary Beth Jackson says
I love the aztec leggings! I wonder if I can find them in Florida? I am going to look this weekend! Nice job!
JulieWunder says
I bet you can! You can look online at Target too.
MILLIE says
I LOVE THE OUTFITS YOU HAVE BUT I AM TO OLD TO WEAR THEM, I DO
LIKE COWBOY BOOTS, AND MY HUSBAND JUST GOT ME A PAIR OF ANKLE BOOTS FOR MY BIRTHDAY, WHICH IS MONDAY, HAVE A GREAT DAY AND A
WONDERFUL THANKSGIVING.
JulieWunder says
Thanks Millie! In my opinion, great boots make any outfit awesome. 🙂
Stacie @ SimplySouthernStacie says
I spy some boot socks : ) And I'm so obsessed with ankle boots too - I need to go get a new pair because I only have one and that's just not acceptable.
JulieWunder says
I can't believe you! I mean black, brown and one other color should be minimum 🙂 Haha! I need to go shopping too!
Annmarie says
I need to get my hands on some printed leggings! I have always been afraid to buy them because I feel like I am too bottom heavy but I really love the look- they are super adorable!
JulieWunder says
I totally understand. I think you just have to wear an even longer/shirt dress with them. IE: totally cover your hips and tops of legs. That pattern can be brutal on thighs!
Jenny says
I love these posts--they're so fun! Cowboy boots and plaid flannel for the win! I'm also loving all of the leather details I'm seeing, (ie: leather skinny pants with a long tunic and cozy sweater) it's still really classic, but slightly edgier than my usual roundup. Happy Friday!
JulieWunder says
Thanks Jenny. I've seen pieces like that and I think they look so cool. Great addition to the list.
Jenn says
I love both trendy and classic looks. I buy what I find on sale 🙂
JulieWunder says
True that!!!! Me too. I'm allergic to full price.
