Summarize:

To dress for the winter, this will get you surprisingly far! A half-button down shirt, layered over any polo, with a jacket on top, is always a good look - simply match similar collars so that bottom one shows and folds over a bit. Jeans are a winter staple, as are comfortable boots. If you're outdoors in the cold, always have a coat on! Stock up on stylish winter boots, uggs, sneakers, slippers, sweatpants, jeans, sweatshirts, leg warmers, sweaters, leggings, tights, and hats! You can even wear a dress in winter if you layer properly. In case of a cold winter, a coat becomes a girl's best friend. It's the item of your wardrobe you'll be wearing most of the time so be sure to find a good one. Choose one that will both prevent you from the cold and reflect your personal style!  If you're into vintage, invest in a cute 60's coat. Or what about a comfy, classy jacket in the American pilot fashion? Whatever your choice is, make sure it's warm enough. A woolen cardigan is a pretty piece of clothing but it won't be of much use when it's snowing outside. A padded jacket is always a popular choice. If you opt for it, try to find a light one to avoid the 'padded' effect. Even the light models are pretty warm, these days. And pick a lively color. Extremities are vulnerable, specially in bad weather. Make sure they are protected so no part of your body will be exposed to the cold air. Otherwise, you'll feel cold all over.  Build a bundle of warmth, starting with something on your head. A woolen bonnet is the ideal choice, but if you're not mad about it, a cap, a beret or a large hat will still do pretty well. Cover your neck with a scarf: it is elegant, and you can learn to do some fancy ties. Don't forget your hands, they're easily dry and hurt during wintertime. If you're tired of traditional gloves, find some in imitation leather. They're usually cheap and very classy-looking. Boots are a must. They can be either high or low, with all sizes of heels, colors, chains, laces and so on. Nothing better than a few added touches to jazz up a classical outfit. When you can't go out without your snow boots and a scarf around your face, make the most of pretty necklaces––long ones will look specially fitting on a pull-over- of flowers in your hair, colorful watches and bracelets, earrings, cute handbags, etc. Tights are a most precious accessory; they're both pretty and warm. When they are thin, they will look great on your legs. If you have to wear them thick, pick a lively color. Now you're protected by your coat and other warm accessories, you can allow yourself to wear fancy and light clothes underneath.  In wintertime, some people prefer to wear warm clothes and light coats, but doing the reverse will enable you not only to show off your wardrobe but also to avoid temperature shocks. The trick is to wear several layers, so you'll be able to take some off and feel comfortable whatever the temperature is. Besides, you can recycle some of your summer clothes, such as your thickest summer dresses with a pull-over and warm tights. You can also put on skirts or jeans with short sleeves tops or blouses and warm it all up with a sweater. As for your underwear, have fun with cute and elegant things. Even if nobody sees them, knowing you're wearing them will boost your self-confidence and your attractiveness.
Dress in layers. Dress well. Find the perfect coat. Cover your head, neck, hands and feet. Choose good quality shoes. Have fun with accessories. Put pretty things underneath your armor.
